He is definitely nearer to 29 than when you posted that fwiw.

I don't doubt Howe would love to reunite and have the pair of them prove everyone wrong. It was just too early in his development in the PL and in a team that didn't quite work for him at the time.

Plus he can share a ride with Ashworth. Sorted.

Dat Brazilian spine after we also bring in Gabriel Barbosa.

On one hand we have the press linking us to Vlahovic, Alvarez, Nunez and Dembele then we have links to Solanke, Nketiah, Morelos and Brereton. Silly season but hope we pick from list A lol.

Freddy Shepherds bulked up and returned from beyond.

‘more popular than a mulled wine on a cold winter’s day’.

Hasn't he already said he has no interest? Wants to move to Spain? Sounds like the Digne situation. Might be available, isn't very interested. Could happen later in the window if nothing else transpires for them.

Most people seem down on Umtiti. I don't watch Barca. Is he over the hill? He is only 28 isn't he. Should be coming to his best years as a CB. He has apparently turned down a bunch of clubs including fenerbache as he wants to move to a CL club fighting for titles.

It's like Downie and Hope received the info together at the same time in a bar. Downie shit the bed ran home in a panic to get the news out first on his desktop.. load damnit, load faster.. but couldn't quite remember which way round the info was. Meanwhile Hope had another pint, casually Tweeted out the right info out on his phone while wondering what the hell happened to Downie.

Reckon we are getting 1 striker either way. If the scans are bad we will bring in 2.

Keith fucked it. Even the second tweet presents more questions. Seems like he didn't listen to the information he was given and Tweeted now has to clarify. Reads that Everton wanted longstaff we said no. But during the same conversation let them know we want digne. After large scale dissection, the irony is that it's probably all toss to begin with!

That said he did say we have another signing coming very soon. So with it not being Digne, he was also cold on Botman, must be a striker or CM you would think?

Maybe agent gave indication he would be interested but then he has heard who else is interested. Definitely weird we would bid if he wasn't interested. More so that we would let it go public and with longstaff mentioned.

Not too worried by this one. Sounds like we are calling their bluff. Expect we have or are going in with a final offer but are quite happy to move on to another target. I think they will blink first but if they don't I am pretty confident we will pick up someone just as good and maybe even return for him in the summer.

Townsend, Shelvey, Saivet and Doumbia that window. I remember the optimism. Looked like we gave ourselves every opportunity to stay up and still fucked it badly! On the upside we are on the rise performance wise not the decline like then.

But you will get Kilcline - https://www.nufc.co.uk/news/features/brian-kilcline-interview/ As POOT says, big changes are afoot. You can already see them reaching out to old legends and changing the content slowly like the above, interviewing Sir Les and highlighting Guti/Colo's recent retirement. Can't wait to start seeing more content with Legends and the eventual return of King Kev!

He was on his way out under Rafa and had served his usefulness then. He can be solid and dangerous in the opposition box but overall he is too much of a liability defensively. Really hope we don't keep him at the expense of Fernandez once the window is shut. Clark should be the first out the door.

To be fair he was absolutely class for us and clearly would walk over broken glass to come here. Seems he is completely broken though and we were probably right not to go back in for him.

If Digne isn't interested, get Aarons from Norwich and play Trippier at LB. Sorted.

So if we do bring in 6 new players which 6 are we dumping off the squad list? Going to be harsh on at least one player. Gillespie is the obvious first choice. In defence I'd dump Clark but I think we will dump Fernandez, could see Dummett getting left out Midfield - Hendrick? Maybe even Longstaff Strikers - Gayle

Rags linking him to a swap to Barcelona with Dembele going the other way. Also reportedly prefers a move to Spain over the PL. He would be a great pick up for us if he interested. Wonder if we end up getting Dembele this window if nothing else works out for him. Looks the part for sure. Didn't have the best success in Europe with Benfica or Inter but has been a machine in Brazil.

Outside chance Lewis is back by then? Hopefully Fernandez too. Less worried about a CB starting at Watford unless we get someone that will naturally slot right in, the sooner we can bed a new CB the better to the squad though, especially if they don't have PL experience. Hoping for a Striker for sure but a CM would be a bonus. Would be some going to get more than another player in before Watford but I like the noises that there are a few things close beyond Trippier!
