Never not impressed that a thread got to (at least) page 365 for a player not employed by Newcastle United.

Ridiculous price that. He’s a very talented player but that’s mental, but when Chelsea can sign Enzo/Mudryk for mad money, is it really that mad? They can just write it off if it doesn’t work anyway.

They not at risk of losing Mitchell this window? Target's on a similar level (when fit)

I think Pardew going to Palace was one of the happiest days of my adult life up until that point. Bruce was worse. That’s the best thing I can say about him.

Not to start this off after last summer... but Chiesa may be up for sale by Liverpool. He never played there. I'd definitely take him as decent backup across the front line. If we have new RW, Chiesa, Murphy, Gordon and Barnes - that's an excellent set of wingers with a bit of everything.

That's a crazy buy. A worldie, the equivalent of buying Musiala, Bellingham etc not even in their prime yet. What's higher than a purple chip?

Mitchell may be leaving on a free, Targett is more than a good enough replacement for them

Agreed

We won't get Guehi for 45m, not even in last year of his contract. However, any such PSR typed shenanigans could very well see us be prepared to over-pay, in order to shift a player like Targett, whereby we get the PSR benefit from the sale. So I'm agreeing with you but not with them figures. Maybe 50m one way and 8m the other. Which from a PSR point of view would still be excellent business.

Musgrove is absolutely sound man. I have no idea on the validity of him claim mind. Also Palace wanting Targett as part of a Guehi deal, what's next, they will only sell us Guehi if we allow Isaac Hayden to join them too?

Popes been part of the team that’s got us to two Champion Leagues so I’d rather he stayed to be honest.

He was still very new to the position. Don’t know the context of the discussion tbh, just replying to this.

Howe literally said he signed him as a left back.

Left back? He played left back at Chelsea and we signed him to play at left back? Hall was left out of the side because he wasn't yet doing to things Howe demanded of him. He said as much recently.

Fucking hell, that Wirtz price is mental

I think Carsley just didn't have the desire for the job. If he'd nailed his colours to the mast and demanded a chance, he might have got it. But I feel like he was happy to just stay in the background.

Genuinely excited about the potential of this. It will show incredible depth in that position when in pre season we have 2 quality goalkeepers sharing game time. I actually think it makes sense for Trafford to spend some time with Pope, so he can learn some of the things Pope is good at. It also puts Pope in a position where if he drops a clanger or two, we've got quality ready to step in.

And yet he couldn't get a run of games because of Sean Longstaff.

New position in which we signed him for?

Fair enough asking price from Forest. We'd expect ourselves to do the same if a club came in for one of our best players. You can't really expect to pay a 'fair' price for a star player from a team that doesn't want/have to sell.

Does it have a trim which matches where the sky blue one is on the home?

Need Joelinton to go through him like a freight train when they turn up at St James.

Looking forward to them butchering the pronunciation.

Hopefully
