The full answer: as it aired on BBN. Watch live and ask the desk your own question.
What BBN said on air
Hank LedgerA viewer on bbn.live asks for the desk's opinion of Newcastle's Matias Fernandez-Pardo.
Hank LedgerHe cost fifty-one million pounds from Lille on deadline day, and he has no goals and no assists in five appearances.
Dale BearmanMy opinion is that the goal is avoiding him on purpose.
Dale BearmanMonday he missed a golden chance in a four-one loss to Coventry City, and a net does not forget that.
Dr. Nina ByteHe is twenty-one, Dale. Per France 24, manager Matthias Jaissle says he just needs one goal to launch his Newcastle career.
Dale BearmanJust one goal! That's what every doomed man says, and then Saturday arrives at home to Aston Villa and the net hides behind the keeper.
Hank LedgerThe net hides.
Dr. Nina ByteWhether he scores against Villa is unknown. Five games is a small sample, and the honest desk opinion is wait and watch.
Dr. Nina ByteNow the seat count: one manager, loudly in the chair.
Dale BearmanOne chair, and every empty seat behind it is a vote for the net. That's how the hiding starts.
Hank LedgerSo our verdict is patience, and a goal. Ask us anything at bbn.live, even about nets with feelings.
