We do, I don’t see us going for that this window though. Certainly the links to players so far suggest the opposite.

When people say they want someone more “technical” than Mbeumo I assume they are talking about guys like Barcola.

I get that and you’re probably right but we need much better technical quality. Surely Eddie knows that

He goes by people and makes things happen down either side. Much more technical and better dribbler than our current wingers.

Think Joan’s Given Shay a deFlowering

I like how they’ve started adding “I’m told” and stuff like that as if it means they don’t have any role in establishing the actual truth.

At this point I just want the manager to get who he wants. I think Elanga will always cause problems with his pace and directness, and likely looks even better in our team. Quite relaxed with whatever direction we go with.

Calm down Luke, it's just bantz.

That'll be a new team bus then.

“I don’t know the answer but will present something vague as insightful and knowledgeable in the hope that readers haven’t figured out my grift”.

“Lots of moving parts” is the most useless phrase ever

Out new?

I'd be happy with Elanga. I think he's more consistent than Barnes. Will probably do more for us over the course of a season. I know they're not playing in the same position, point is that we're kind of happy with the Barnes signing, and we paid around 40m for him. I wonder how much Elanga would cost after this season, though? Didn't we apparently get a 50m bid rejected before this season, which was his best so far?

He’s as Howe-coded a winger as you can get. He’d be class for us imo.

Apparently so https://www.sportsdirect.com/adidas-newcastle-united-home-shirt-2025-2026-adults-377064#colcode=37706403

Fwiw, I think we double down on Howe type players, mainly ones who can press all match. I don’t see us moving to more technical ones.

Lot of people disrespecting Elanga here. He’s one of the best young wingers in the prem ffs. Probably the fastest player in the league, both footed, work-rate for days and good character. We could do a lot worse.

Sports Direct selling the kit again? Spotted one on display in town.

Elanga isn’t good enough

PSG also deserve it, despite claims from the weirdest man in the premier league PSG have been the best team in the CL this season

Does that mean he is as good with either foot?

I agree, but wouldn’t be surprised to see us make a big push for him

Has Shay Given Joan Flowers?

Wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being the case tbh.
