Mitchel will be very good at unearthing talent for low fees with his contacts.

I still think this happens, they’ve invested too much time and effort into this already and will look like even bigger knackers if they don’t get it done.

Yeah I’m not sure Hurst should be the barometer for nufc fans but in this case I agree with him. It is a massive week for the club and Eales/Mitchel in particular.

I get where Shearer is coming from though. I doubt he’s suggesting we bring in any old popcorn signing a la Shepherd back in the day, more genuine quality to push the team on. To finish the window without bringing in any nailed on starting players for the first team and failing to strengthen either of the two areas that every man and his dog knows needed strengthening is hardly a good look and questions will rightly be asked.

Makes perfect sense as a signing. I think Dubrakva will go somewhere may even on loan.

😂, well said

True

That Madueke goal in Europe then hatrick yesterday has probably torpedoed any chance of that deal 😂

We’ll know in the next few days one way or another.

Agreed

Particularly as Howe was quoted as saying he can play both sides. Gordon can play RW but that means having to shift one of your star players out of position all the time. It’s an odd one but it sure Howe would give x number of reasons for it.

I think that can work, kind of feel he needs to find a way to get Barnes on because she’s a goal threat and a far better option than Murphy or Almiron. The frustration is Barnes either can’t or Howe won’t play him on the right at all.

I don’t really see the point of bringing DCL in if we’re keeping Wilson too, seems an odd one. Mind the lad would be a decent back up option I suppose 🤷‍♂️

6/10, ok maybe 7/10 given we signed Kelly and at least have a back up striker too. Not good enough though.

It’s a huge week for the club for me, they need to get some signings in.

I think he’ll go, if a players wants to go they usually go.

He’s a grafter but he’s a squad player.

Bang average. We need a couple of signings, a big performance against Spurs and then kick on properly after the international break.

You’d bloody hope so blimey

Sign some players please

Longstaff, Murphy (and Almiron) stick out like sore thumbs. It doesn’t help when the other lads were stinking the place out too.

Dreadful today and with a completely moronic foul

Mostly really poor today. Barnes and Gordon have to start on wings now if we’re not bringing in another RW. Ultimately it’s a good point away from home but we’ve got loads of work to do. Not good enough really.

It’s very odd and concerning how committed they are at home and yet away from we just look completed disjointed. Needs to be sorted out.

Very concerning if this is the situation when the window closes.
