play strongest defence and midfield in Leverkusen and against Sunderland. Not sure what our strongest attack is? - both Gordon and Harvey looks good atm, but both should only operate on the left. I would probably start Harvey and Murphy in Leverkusen with Wolte on top!

our attack is weak at the moment and probably the main reason for our poor / swingning performances...

looks right. Ideally Burn needs a rest but no other options comes to mind? Schär + Thiaw or Schär + Lascelles Botman could probably use a rest as well

what a start and what a player. I was a bit sceptic but i really like what i have seen so far. Him and Sven is hot as f...!

By far the worst window ever -social media play a huge negative role here. But the window actually ended up quite good. Isak left one year earlier then i expected and in an horrible manner. WW is good and exciting replacements. Elanga needs to win me over. Thiaw looks nice - but not as good as Guehi. Ramsey could also become a good versatile midfielder for us. Do we need more creativity from midfield / wingers? 8 out 10

Jackson for 50 mill is probably the best deal out there (if that still is the price).

Find a proper replacement for Isak and let Osula be 2nd choice. Go back in the transfer market in January. Far from ideal with all the matches before xmas, i know. But deals now are too crazy / expensive and probably not doing us much good long term.

i would like Gordon to start on the left

Regarding Isak and new striker(s) we have no f...... clue! Mad situation! I have no idea what i hope for anymore? I would like Wissa but not for silly money and would like Aghehowa but he is injured and probably its unrealistic anyway.

Can´t buy 2 strikers who is off to the African Cup. We lost 2 points against Villa coz we didn´t have a striker

Same team except i probably would prefer Gordon on LW and Osula on top. Or at least try it earlier than against Villa if the game needs it. Think we should have had Osula on top right after Konsa went off.

they will both get plenty of games even though they dont play together

True - but i think its harsh to write him off after his time at Man U. No service and too much responsibility. Maybe Strand Larsen - but that is probably not realistic at this stage of the window...

Everyone is a (huge) downgrade from Isak. I could see Højlund fit in and come good with the right service

it would be a downgrade but we need 2 and they can´t both be from Africa. Who else (realistic) if not Aghehowa? Kolo Muani or Ramos...realistic?

Him and Wissa would be awesome. Wissa and Højlund would okay for me as well.

Aghehowa or Muani+ Wissa for Isak would be good business at this stage. It will be tough but it is what we should aim for. Thiaw solves CB issue. And the we need a good CM. Many good ones out there. Its not impossible to finish the window on a "high"...(Isak aside)

Jackson - Hell no ! ! ! i have not seen Samu Aghehowa in action - would he be worth going for along with Wissa?

Well - so who is the next world class striker target to refuse us..? Anyone left you would like...?

Coming over for the Man. U game :-) Pretty excited! Was hoping some of you locals had a few tips for our trip. Thought about following: Friday: pub crawl - Old George, Posada and The Tyne Saturday: The Strawberry and around SJP before. After? Sunday: Tynemouth (market, food, chill)? Not looking for something too mainstream and silly/stupid. Any tips are truly appreciated. We love to be there tomorrow

Longstaff to start over Willock

you got a point. Is it then better to keep Longstaff and sell Willock? Maybe keep all 3 and strengthen other positions and raise money from sells and wage reduction in the summer out: Miggy (maybe now) Targett Lascelles Trippier Wilson Kelly Vlachodimos Pope or Dubravka? Lewis

We should not sell Longstaff - he will be very important next season if we qualify for Europe. He will cost the same to replace.

Targett for Burn? and swap position with Kelly. No other options for Tonali?

Barca and Chelsea should have a lot of interesting left overs. I do not believe we will close the window without signing a CB or RW. We also have a lot of players to get rid of one way or the other. Mitchell must be desperate for a good start
