I'm not convinced that City will beat both Bournemouth and Fulham and can see Southampton getting something against Arsenal last day the way Arsenal have been playing recently. So even a draw on Sunday and I think 2nd is a real possibility

yeah, my personal feelings are that it’s either strongly based off the current badge or we use one of the older badges. All the new designs I’ve seen people doing just look really shit and just aren’t Newcastle United to me.

Kind of, but even then you have Dan Burn, who played a very competent LB for ages. Krafth too. And we will need versatility in the system they can play, too. I think it's different but even by CB standards, I still think we want versatile players.

Agree, but I think you can except CB from the list as well.

If we have learned anything from the last few seasons, it's that Howe prizes versatility more than most. I would imagine that every player we target (apart from Trafford obv) would be able to play multiple positions at a high level. Any rumour involving anyone who doesn't can be immediately dismissed.

I’d even buy that 2nd one.

Ut il rectuminus

All fun and games until one of their £50m generational talents gets flung into the hoarding

What's the latin for 'get into them'? Can we have that on the new badge?

Black cats aren’t they? As it happens the ship one they discarded for it was a better logo.

Couldn't give a shiny shite about a bit of play-acting these days. Address the institutional bias against everyone outside 'the big six' and I might feel more strongly.

Please don't say we burden ourselves with offering Wilson a year extension in the hope we get a fee too risky let him walk on a free.

Can almost crown Liverpool with the best signing of the window.

The 02/03 away top is my favourite. I’d love a modern version, or even an Adidas re-issue. It was my first top.

I still think we need a smarter transfer policy than going after all the best players from the rest of the premier league, if you believe the papers.

Pope not top 10

According to Juve fans it's a fan aggregator account, not a journalist or someone with any sources at the club. Apparently has a reputation for making stuff up as well.

I have a feeling (maybe a stupid, hopeless one) that Man Utd might at least get a draw against Chelsea. Their defeat to West Ham was so bad and with Amorim pretty much telling his players off to the media, hopefully they atleast don't just lie down on Friday. They have somehow dugged up some big esults against the big teams this season like City and Liverpool away so hopefully they can do something. Spurs are hopeless though. Villa win. Any dropped points by the others, we'd have our tails up for our match on Sunday. Forget top 5, "you can tell him now if you're watching it, we're still fighting for this 2nd place, and he can bring all the light bulbs he wants into the dressing room.and hope he gets them to work, and... and... I'll tell you, honestly, I will love it if we beat them, love it!"

Pope has been fantastic since coming back into the team his form is back big time, I wouldn't let him go at all he's class.

Bastards. Mac Allister levels of poaching that.

Frimpong to Liverpool for just under £30m.

Guehi addresses an immediate need. The other two are cold as well and I'd happily welcome them but an athletic & experienced CB is essential imo (alongside a RWer)

Goalkeepers: I'd keep pope and sell Dubravka. Bring in Trafford as backup for a season while he learns off his holy Ness. Defenders: Flog Targett and bring in Guehi. Maybes kwp in on a free for fullback cover. Midfielders: Flog Longstaff, Willock. Forwards: Flog Wilson, bring in delap as backup.

Was a huge fan of the 02/03 away kit - love the fact you’ve got it in the stash above:
