Pretty much agree with this the only worry is holding on to top players like Isak and Tonali, if where not in the CL it could enable teams to turn their heads, though I’m confident PIF will dig heels in due to length still on contracts.

Be interesting to see what the transfer window looks like with and without CL qualification, Villa have banked 45 million from their run to the QF which is a tidy sum towards their budget.

Think Cunha would be an exciting signing that would give us something different, very versatile hybrid forward who would give us more options tactically.

Think Mbuemo looks a far more accomplished finisher than Gordon and seems to find himself in central areas like his first goal on Saturday regularly.

Can see Mbuemo being the number one target can play across the front 3 and guarantee’s goals, can’t see the funds stretching to a winger and forward even with CL football. If we got Mbuemo, Trafford and Huijsen it would strengthen 3 key positions and would be hard to argue that it wasn’t a good summer. I can see Longstaff and Wilson leaving to free up wages and possibly Pope, if Trafford arrives. Would like another dynamic attacking midfielder in an ideal world, especially if we secure CL football, as the system we play requires more than Willock and Miley in reserve with the potential extra games.

Yeah qualify for Champions League and fancy us to be in the stronger position next season.

Lee Ryder bashing out another article around staying at SJP to get his weekly quota in.

Great boozer where i’d be heading if I was going today.

Certainly nothing wrong with our scouting, that Andrey Santos is now one of the best midfielders in France after his unsuccessful loan at Forrest. Thinks it’s just been our finances and timing that has prevented us from having more young talent on the books.

The best limbs ever seen at SJP and I’d argue anywhere in this country, only Kelly v Portsmouth comes close.

Isak had been linked for ages but the press briefings were we couldn’t afford him.

North Shields bedrock of NUFC support and the fucking hardest just ask the casualties.

Instant classic that shirt.

Ryder’s best ignored clearly struggling for his quota of articles.

I don’t worry about stuff like this just curious about how they’ll attempt to twist it going forward.
