So at least some of the impacts are indirect. | ||

Newcastle United have signed goalkeeper Loris Karius on a short-term contract. Karius, a free agent following his departure from Liverpool in the summer, has agreed a deal until January with an option to extend his stay until the end of the season. The German's arrival follows an ankle injury sustained by Karl Darlow in training. While Darlow is not expected to be out long term, the Magpies have moved quickly to secure experienced cover and to add competition to the squad. Newcastle United head coach, Eddie Howe, said: "We are pleased to add Loris to our goalkeeping group. He is a very good goalkeeper with Premier League and European experience and he will provide competition and support over an important part of the season." Newcastle website statement | ||

An elite goalkeeper he is not but, solid enough and forever scarred by that, feel for the guy. On the Queen stuff, well over here one half of the community almost tries to out-patriot their mainland counterparts to show their Britishness in a contested environment. But I mean for fuck sake. Day or two of mourning, hey I’m not wearing black but I get it to a degree. It’s just cancelled event after cancelled event over here, some of whom had vendors putting down back just to get a slot, never mind their inventory costs. To my mind it’s ridiculous, granted I’m a Republican at heart, but it’s less the gesture, more the extent of the gesture. | ||

The UCL final was most unfortunate place to have an off day, but it was bound to happen in some important game sooner or later, no matter if he was concussed or not. That being said, you obviously don't wish that kind of burden for anyone. I haven't followed his career much since he left Liverpool, but I've understood he hasn't managed to secure a starter position anywhere and seems to be drifting around a bit smaller leagues without much success. Hopefully he can find whatever he's looking for in Newcastle. | ||

Yeah, apparently Besiktas didn't want to sign him permanently, so they created some issues to make sure the loan deal doesn't turn into a permanent deal. Then he went to Union Berlin and mostly sat on the bench there too. It's pretty hard to tell whether he's unlucky and still struggling to recover his confidence or if there's something about his personality and professionalism that makes him a liability somehow. Most cases like this have a bit of a mix of both. | ||

The both the manager position and player roster have been revolving doors for quite a few years now and you'd need to watch weekly to have even the slightest feel of what's going on. | ||
