Maybe we wanted Paqueta but he doesn’t want to come here.

He’s being linked with the likes of City as well, we certainly would be far from his first choice

Maybe Pacqueta doesn’t want to come ? Him being Bruno’s mate doesn’t mean he wants to sign for us which a lot of people seem to believe.

Nice to see a link that zero north east journalists have picked up again, none of them will release an article to disagree with Percy, it’s up there with Ornstein in terms of reliability.

This also isn’t Mine Ashley’s Newcastle, if we have bid that much and are going back in, I’m certain we have sounded him out and he’s interested.

Percy is tier 1 when it comes to transfer news.

I’d still guess that Harrison is the main target.

? fair point, I just have no faith in his body holding up unfortunately.

The only slight concern is if Wilson picks up any injury in the meantime.

Yep that’s my reading of it as well. Obviously if we get into the last week and haven’t gotten anyone in, then things may change and those players will probably become targets if they are still available.

The last line suggest to me we aren’t in for Cornet, Sarr etc.

His versatility would be absolutely key as well, and his numbers in a poor Watford side where brilliant tbh

I think them stopping him from going to the AFCON really effected him.

I’m just here for the Howe post match transfer update

He offers more than Fraser and Murphy

It just makes me even more desperate for attacking signings because we are close to being a really good side

Trippier and Targett back out second half

Nor is ours apart from defence.

Good pen

And we still have no good attacking players on the pitch

I hope so, would love him here for a couple of years

The issue is the attacking players we have
