Looking forward to set penises.

Wrong thread I believe

No, but I doubt that's it. Trippier and Bruno are stellar signings, but we will need one more forward with pace and goals to make it a great window.

 

Dan's not a bad signing for the squad, although quite over-priced, but he will hopefully do a job short term. Still not convinced he's any better than Dummett tbh, but Dummett is made of glass.

Burn is better on the ball than Dummett and has the advantage of being 6'7"

Agree with baldy here like.

 

 

Howe was quick to praise Dubravka after the Leeds win but you suspect he wants better. Henderson might be more of an opportunity than a priority.

Player coming from one of the better defences in the league with a fresh mindset. Hopefully that spreads to others in the squad to try and lift this almost acceptance of relegation.

 

Welcome Dan and good luck

As above plus coming from a team who know how to keep the ball

Really hope we bring in another winger/attacking midfielder to take advantage of Bruno's passes.

Dembele it is then

We’ve got what we needed out of Wood in those two games, Wilson will be back and we’ll have someone else come in before Mondays over.

I think every squad needs a big striker just to have an option. We probably overpaid for Wood but I think he will help keep us up this year.

I’m going out on a limb and saying that the surprise is we’re back in for Botman.

I think it is more likely that we can get DC, especially given his links to Bruno. Botman seems to be heading to Milan in the summer.

What/who does he allude to?

If there is a lesson to be learnt then it is to stay off Twitter whilst you are driving, especially when you are travelling off road. Thankfully Keith is safe and the car wasn't very good anyway.

My guess is Dembele from Barca

Can he run on to Bruno’s through balls? 

You've got to think this is what they are looking for. Age is important too, as Wood and Wilson are getting on but will still be first choice in the short term.

Bissouma in the summer for me.

Both....once the police investigation is complete

I doubt that's true, If Trippier is on 100k or just under, no way Bruno is getting almost double what Trippier is getting.

Thought I read somewhere that he is on £25k PW at Lyon and nufc are going to quodruple his salary.

He could sign permanently then and a deal is probably there

A box-to-box central defender?!?

 

Why not...?

Phillipe Albert v2

Just now, SUPERTOON said:

They don’t both play for the same team ?

Gosens and Zapata play for Atalanta. They may wish to just loose Gosens this window...and as he seems to be going to Inter then Bakker is possibly our plan B.

I seem to remember him playing LB at SJP a few years back and being all over the shop. View of the BHA gives me a bit more confidence but I always thought he looked off the PL pace.

He's better suited to CB and has improved his game in the last two years. Credit to him and Potter.

Apparently Bakkers agent is in Toon.

...ready for his facetime chat with Mandy in Jeddah

Just now, STM said:

Come on Newcastle Burn, Bakker and Bruno would be class.

I guess we are viewing Burn as a CB then

It's just what Romano said. Payment schedule, agent fees etc still to be agreed. No FULL agreement.

Defo looks like we are trying to move to a back 3 then.. sadly this probably means we haven’t seen the back of Clark 

He played CB in a back four last time out against Leicester with Webster.

15 minutes ago, SUPERTOON said:

I’m not too concerned as he has the same agent as Carlos so we have this one wrapped up imo.

Who else does this agent have?

I hope we have this tied down already. It screams late disappointment.

Hope we haven't gone from Botman, to Carlos, to Burn...

 

Would be good for squad depth, but surely not challenging for a start? 

He helps keep us up this season and is a good squad player moving forwards.

Is this not a really odd time for an international break? 

Covid catch up for WC Qualifiers. Also ACON ongoing.
