Reckon Jonas could be off this summer (unlikely the club will give him a new deal given his age anyway but his comments here won't help matters - see Barton and Enrique for how Ashley likes to deal with players who criticise the hierarchy).
Also, pretty poor form the club didn't help pay his treatment and how they treated him on his return. This is a guy who stayed when we went down and helped to get the club back up again. Great repaying of the loyalty there!
There is so much that needs to be fixed/replaced with the club - but the surprising thing is it doesn't necessarily have to cost them a whole lot of money either. Heck, even improving the communication between fans and the club would be a welcome sigh of relief and step in the right direction.
But his return to Newcastle was not a happy one.
Gutierrez explained: “I returned mid-November and at the beginning to mid-December the manager said I should find myself another club, that it was best... er, I understand a lot of things about football that, well, that for the directors it is a business, no?
“It is clear that they look after the club’s interests, but I think in a situation like that, you need to save (consider) other things, even more if you see I had been playing for five years before having this problem, I was always playing.”
Gutierrez was loaned to Norwich City during this time, but he picked up an injury after only four games and then former United boss Chris Hughton, a great supporter of the Argentinian, was sacked by the Canaries.
So the player returned to Newcastle where he had a contract until 2015, which included a clause of automatic renewal according to the number of games played.
And this is where more problems arose with Newcastle.
Gutierrez said: “I won’t be able to forgive the way I’ve been treated, no?
“Because I understood the team at that time (wasn’t doing so well?) that one needed to fight to return to the pitch.
“Well I don’t think it was the right time nor the circumstances and I think at times like that, you should look after the individual, the player.”
It is believed at this time that Newcastle did not pay for their player’s medical expenses.
Gutierrez added: “I never asked for anything. I paid for it because for me, the most important thing, as I told you, was my health.
“If they thought it was OK to do it that way, then it’s OK.
“I never asked for anything and that’s it. I wasn’t interested.”
