I'd much rather we get Nelson from Arsenal tbh. He has much more alligned attributes to what Howe wants. We can probably to better than both though.

You would think so with Gordon there too. Think Barnes can play through the middle too can't he? With ASM I think we missed his peak value. Keeping him in the squad another year probably won't negatively affect his current value and he does offer a bit of versatility as a back up forward. I'd be happy to get Barnes but keep ASM for this year. FFP probably thinks different.

Concerned how Bruno will cope with the attention this sexy fucker will get. Absolutely buzzing with this signing. He seems like an complete game changer. Future captain material. Can't wait to see him alongside Bruno and Joe.

He will get lots of minutes either rotating with Trips or at LB. Don't believe Talbert at all. Much more likely Southampton wanting more money than we will pay will be what's holding up or ruling out this move.

Yeah, missing 10 starters. Just isn't the depth behind that yet. The Guatemala game was atrocious. That said it was near +40 with humidity and the game started at 9pm local! Guadeloupe actually have a fairly solid team. A couple of top tier league players and mainly all French expats that play in Ligue 2. Canada should be beating both though. Lots of new players simply not gelling. Ahmed from the whitecaps looks a great find for the program though as does mls rookie Bombito. Canada desperately needs CB's. It's a gong show back there.

Just watch that sucker sign for Liverpool lol

Back in for Ake?

https://www.nufc.co.uk/news/galleries/toon-in-training-newcastle-united-women-return-for-pre-season-training-ahead-of-202324-campaign/ Lasses back in toon. New signing additions imminent.

Guler? He is heading to Barca.

https://www.nufcblog.co.uk/2023/07/01/newcastle-interested-in-england-talent-entering-final-12-months-of-contract-report/ Another random one. I'm only interested as he is likely to end up playing for Canada. Not a first team signing for this year though. He would be loaned out or a reserve striker at best, maybe some minutes in Wilson or isak are injured.

Not worth posting but it's a slow news day. https://www.spurs-web.com/spurs-news/report-newcastle-and-aston-villa-enter-race-for-spurs-centre-back-target/ We were linked last summer weren't we?

Pretty sure it's just agent posturing to get Liverpool to pull their finger out and get the deal done. Likewise Reiss Nelson, more than likely a "pay me a bit more or I'm off" plea. Maybe Arsenal call his bluff.

I'm assuming we are hoping one of Minteh of Kuol will step into the first team squad next year or the season after, so possible age isn't a pre-requiste for anyone else coming in for the wide areas, as long as there is some resale value.

Maybe a UK thing. Both browser and app are fine for me.

Nelson would be a reasonably astute addition. Home grown Versatile Pace Gets stuck in Has potential to grow Fits budget Reminds me of a pacey Joelinton/Willock hybrid tbh. Not the flashy next level signing we are looking for but he would fit in here well imo and give us more wriggle room in other areas.

I wouldn't rule out a sneaky loan bid or lowball offer for him if we don't get other targets.

Just get Franca and Guler the spend on a decent LB. Edit: scratch that. Guler is heading to Barca

It's quite the heel turn. Thought he was great for the first year or two. Turned badly the last couple of years.

Thought I'd come in check out this thread and see what was happening..

We are still a few years away from being able to really flex muscles. Once our youth system gets going and we cycle out the unsellables we will have a better revenue stream to compete. We have come dramatically further forward than most people expected but we are still a little hamstrung and need to box clever. I'm pretty excited to see where we go next because we are anything but predictable.

Liverpool in for him?

Guehi would be great, big upside. If you believe we were serious about spending 50-60m on Kim Min-jae then 40-45m seems possible for Guehi. Revisiting Goncalo Inacio for less money seems more likely though. Chiesa would be immense but I don't think we are in for him. Hope I am wrong.
