    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    Hope we get him then. (Sorry mate)
  2. Hey Sandro! Sandro Italia! Hey Sandro! Sandro Tonali aye! Welcome!
  3. Did we sign him today? No! Also he didn’t cost too much as well as being at the start of the project. He was 23/24.. I’m gonna go and talk with my door handle instead.
  4. No it isn’t It’s being smart and making good long term investments. Also, we are not City. Look at the players we have signed so far for big money. Bruno, Isak, Botman and soon Tonali. That’s players with plenty of years ahead of them as well as being high quality but yet to reach their potential ceiling. We haven’t even been linked (seriously) to many +26 players. I like the way we are doing it. Players with plenty of years ahead of them plus very young players than can come in within a few years. Having the young talent coming through before our “stars” get too old is shrewd business. We obviously will continue to sign players for “now” too going forward. But too many expensive “old” ones would mean we have to replace them for big bucks even earlier. Having said all the above I would not be against JM. I just don’t see us going that route unless for less money than they want.
  5. JM is good but I’m thinking that for the money they want we reckon that he is on the wrong side of 25. Welcome Szob!

    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    The thought of Szoboszlai with Bruno and Tonali…. 3 players with fantastic ability to make key passes and everything else on top of that. Good physicality combined with technical ability and the right mentality and leadership. Hope we get him too.
  7. “My jaw dropped down to my fucking knees”
  8. Arda Guler to Barca is the rumour. Didn’t want him anyway.
  9. Thinking of fee + wages would he end up being more expensive overall than Szoboszlai?

    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    Chiesa and Theo for a combined 15m would be decent business. Smart business with a 75m kitty
  12. Was it him making the run and the pass to Gnonto? I thought so but wasn’t entirely sure. Class anyway
  13. His delivery Is class

    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    This is empty as a thread with serious rumours under Ashley.
  15. Aye mate. Basically how i feel.
  16. I can live with that tbh So many other clubs that I’d be much more gutted to see him go to.
  17. The type of player i wanted for midfield. Not some pure limited DM. Well done NUFC. Now get a proper attacking one too please. Versatility is key.
  18. No idea mate. Not on there. Absolute weirdos.
  19. Have you ever seen a Milan fan on RTG???
  20. He isn't unknown in any way to me though. But i like the fact when there is a signing done that everyone doesn't know about. That instead of going the safe way. There's a risk but i love when that comes out as a "steal" if X-player performs even better than expected. DS would cost a bomb but im pretty confident that he would be a success and after a while we'll think that the money he cost was a very good investment for 10+ years here or wherever.
  21. Don't be an idiot making things up in your own head about what i think. I named many reasons as to why i wanted him. Foreign and being a fucking pineapple wasn't one of them.
  22. I personally prefer Szoboszlai because he is much younger, more athletic and physical. jM is obviously proven in this league and probably a safer bet, but I’m certain that DS is too talented to not succeed and probably has a higher ceiling potentially. Plus I want us to bring in “our own” stars instead of buying ready made proven PL players. Not that DS is unknown really but there’s a nice feeling when you sign a player like Bruno for example who comes in and grows with the club and others are like “where did they find this guy, or get him”. The more unknown is sometimes more exciting somehow. I would be very happy with Maddison too, no doubt. I think DS is our number one priority though.
