    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    It’s a valid question. Me personally, I don’t think I’ve seen him play CF. I also wonder how he would play against teams sitting back a lot.
  2. Have you had a Villa win against City when doing these? City are certain for me, but I’m not sure Villa will be missing out. I think Forest and Chelsea will a lot depending on Forest today and us against Chelsea. Having said that, don’t underestimate what the late Chelsea win might do for them in a positive way going forward.

    Most likely yeah. But I’ve not seen anything near official so it doesn’t seem a done deal. Seems like they are in advanced negotiations. Unless I’ve missed something. Still, my point stands as an example, like I said.

    I still don’t see Brentford letting him go for as “little” as 50m. I also think for what Mbeumo would cost we could almost get Samuele Ricci and Luis Henrique for the same money. Just an example. Admittedly not seen that that much of LH but the little I’ve seen I’ve liked.
  5. They are so pedestrian while Villa are the opposite. I hope you’re right. As has been mentioned, Villa haven’t been that great away.
  6. I think it’s between us Chelsea and Forest. Because I think Villa will beat City, and City’s run in is easy after that.
  7. Yes. But I’m not worried about us not winning that one. Think it will be decided before that, one way or another.
  8. You’re forgetting that Tarkowski is injured. Keane will gift them at least two goals. Mark my words…
  9. Well this weekend ain’t going well for us….
  10. In this particular game Howe wouldn’t have made a jot of difference result wise tbh. They were just so much better and sharper and fresher in every area of the game.

    For all the Akliouches, Mbeumos, Huijsens and Cunhas and so on which we all would ideally like, I’m not sure it’s the best way forward as it would be too expensive. We REALLY need PM to find some gems in and around 30m or so for example, on half the wages. Players that over a season become those highly rated and valued players. If we sign say 3 “purples” and we are in the CL we are still gonna be short in quality, especially in depth and the players will be absolutely knackered during the season. It’s easier said than done but that’s PM’s job and the scouts. Said it for ages, we reallly need to improve the technical ability overall, as well as athleticism. Said it before last season, we really need another CM too of good quality.
  12. They will beat City unfortunately. 90% sure of it. Wish to God that I’m wrong but I don’t see it.
  13. I still think he’s best in a deeper role. Preferably in a double pivot. Would like to see him and Tonali together with an athletic and technical attacking midfielder in front of them. Purely when it comes to player ability and style someone like Cunha would be perfect and it would also help Isak as well as giving more variety beings able to be really dangerous from central areas instead of going wide all the time. im not expecting to see us go similar to 4-2-3-1 but I REALLY think it would be the best way to go. Especially when you consider what we already have as well as what we need going forward.
