Matias Fernandez-Pardo

And you can tell their side just completely shot on confidence.

And I mean, Bruno Fernandes, he was an unused substitute against the Cherries.

If he does start here, is he going to give his all? Because I'm not sure he will.

That obviously came on the back of a 4-1 loss at Como.

He looks like he's got a lot of pace, but I'm not sure.

Not seen a lot else so far.

Fernandes, Pardo, it's early days, but there's limited impact so far.

I'm looking at their...

And then finally, a player that I thought would be done discussing is Johan Wisser.

For those that have been very patient, Osula... twisted his ankle on Thursday now I think they play Monday right Newcastle Everton but it's still a quick turnaround so I would say Osula is a major doubt off the back of twisting his ankle and apparently Fernandez Pardo is also a doubt I mean Wisser probably does start at the moment so again if you're struggling and you've got other transfers to make and you've held on to Wisser maybe you start him so there we go those are the major press conference updates as of Friday Please keep an eye on the information throughout Friday because we might get embargoed quotes.

There might be more stuff that comes out.

This is just the start of the chaos for Game Week 9 though.

They don't really have a clinical striker up front.

Fernandes Pardo hasn't exactly hit the ground running.

Asouda looked good, actually, at Palace at the weekend, but he's still a young player, still a bit raw.

So...

I think Newcastle were a little bit better, but for Everton to weather that storm initially and then get the third goal to put it completely out of reach, for sure at that point, was really... confidence building and for it to be tierno berry again he's been under so much pressure this season um and yeah he's not going to score every single game but he's got a pretty impressive return for it being still pretty early in the season

can we talk about the amount of money that newcastle has spent on some of these guys um i mean alonga voltamata is not even on this team i mean he's out on loan to juventus and i'm sure they're getting a nice loan fee look they had big sales i get it But Fernandez-Pardo was ill, I guess, whatever.

He's 60 million euros.

Nico Gonzalez, let me tell you what, man.

Okay.

And so last one for you, Fernandes Pardo.

We were quite excited about what he might be.

What's been your impression so far?

So I think there's easily a world where the pair of them can play together.

Fernandes Pardo, the same, really.

I mean, I imagine many were starting to drop him due to form.

So I wouldn't go picking him up again if he starts this week.
