Don't care how many forwards other teams have. We need 3 because: 1. Wilson has paper legs and misses 50% of a season. 2. We don't have wide forwards who can play a false 9 or even play legitimate striker roles.

@HaydnNUFC

We must have someone lined up or at least be incredibly confident that we can make a late addition to our forward line. I can't even think of anyone we've been linked with.

Newcastle transfers right now seems like CIA pre 9/11. Lots of chatter, we know somethings coming but fuck knows where and when.

Yeah I'd say someone who could do a couple of jobs. Someone young and exciting.

I suspect we might use the loan market too.

This is great news because we 100% have something cooking, in terms of a replacement. Also probably get a half decent loan fee.

Didn't know that. Sorry for upsetting you.

Yeah I don't see why anyone doesn't get this. Howe isn't going to rely on Wilson and Isak. We may sign someone who can play in multiple roles. Joao Pedro was my guess but apparently he's injured.

Howe wouldn't let would go without a replacement. Joao Pedro?

Forest would be a better bet than either Bournemouth or Everton.

I will tell you on April 22 whether we are finishing 4th.

Perhaps Karius is now comfortable playing 2nd/3rd choice. Alot of goalkeepers end up like this. I mean, if you saw his bird, you'd see why he's a very happy bloke. Wonder where this leaves Dubravka in the summer.

Marsch seems to be one of those coaches who relies entirely on talking a good game and motivating his players. I'm not sure there's much more to him than that. I'm about 80% certain it will end in Leeds getting relegated or Leeds sacking him before they go down. Not necessarily this year mind.

Tell me you don't watch football, without telling me you don't watch football.

I was thinking he could have controlled it and took it in his stride.

Arsenal signing Rice would be the perfect poetic justice for Chelsea getting Mudryk.

Reckon Rafa to West Ham is a real possibility.

I've said from day one that things won't happen for us until the last week or 10 days. Hopefully start hearing something concrete after Palace.

Gallagher, I think would be a good fit and Howe would turn him into a consistent top player. He's got similar attributes to Longstaff but also some end product. He's also an England International and its important we try and have a few embedded in our squad, where possible. If we could get a loan with an option, I think that would be perfect. RLC I'm not so sure about. He often seems injured. He's a good player but whether he's got it in himself to make that leap further? He's versatile, which is something Eddie would want. Ziyech, on loan would be an incredible addition. He's a door opener. Long term, no thanks.

How's Bruno?

Well that depends what type of doctor you are; animal doctor? (from the horses mouth), do you work with mental patients or perhaps those with dementia?

If Bruno is missing then Maxi will come in and Joelinton will go central with Longstaff playing the 6. Wilson does seem out of form but for context, the last 3 games have been Arsenal (fair enough), Leeds (who played a low block) and Fulham (was unlucky not to score and got an assist). Stick with Wilson for now. He will get injured soon enough.

sorry if giggs. Spot our paully in the pink jacket. Celebrating the goal as the cross goes in.

Poor set pieces again and two really poor passes that put us into trouble. He's also conceded a pen.
