Try imagining Maxi, Willock, Joelinton, Fraser and a fit again Wilson bursting on to them. Wood gives the attack a focal point and with him and Burn we’ll be a big threat from set pieces now.

We’ve given ourselves a great chance. Regardless of another attacking option, if we can’t stay up after spending 90 million serious questions will be asked of Howe. We’ve signed an England right back and world class midfielder. The other additions are solid and I think Burn will surprise people, his stats for Brighton are impressive. We’re up against 3 teams we should now be finishing above, barring a complete injury crisis of epic proportions.

Stick with Willock no thanks.

He definitely hasn’t got a link to Mandy.

Alvarez to City is still to be announced ?

Midweek league game sold out well in advance, it’s a long time since we’ve seen those days.

Absolutely, they’ve been very agile in the transfer market. Very impressive January window for such football novices.

Still tentative links to St Juste and Fofana. Would be absolutely over the moon to add Fofana to our midfield, we’d instantly have an elite midfield overnight.

At this point I think a decent CB signed and I’m confident we have enough to stay up. The midfield position is a key upgrade, it should make a huge difference to us in terms of possession and protecting the back 4. Being greedy though, if we could still pull Lingard off it would gives us another dimension alongside St Max and potentially make us very good to watch for the remainder of season. Still think we’ll see another big story in the next couple of days involving a striker, potentially Nunez, Zapata or Isak, but have a feeling that might be just out of our reach this window. Great times.

Parallel negotiations for multiple players if it is us, back up option in case Bruno falls through perhaps.

We we’re also linked with Paqueta earlier in the window, I’m presuming he is a more attacking midfielder. https://www.thesun.ie/sport/football/8100426/lyon-lucas-paqueta-newcastle-transfer-snub/

‘A deal for Lyon’s Bruno Guimarães is close. Arguments over the fee aren’t thought to be unsurmountable. They are working on other eye-catching deals’. “If they don’t have their players in before Monday it’s going to be carnage,” one recruitment executive predicted of the last minute rush. The first big test of the takeover is fast approaching.

Good watch that, particularly when he talks about how he’ll fit into our lineup with Shelvey.

Chelsea forging links with a Newcastle school really boiled my fucking piss. Under Ashley we’d even accepted defeat in scouting youngsters from our own catchment area.

One of the best things about the takeover for me, it’s great being able to sign top players but keeping our best young players is just as important. Gone are the days when this club bends over for the scousers and co.

Exactly, if we stay up there’ll be few places in football more exciting this summer.

So much for us being a feeder club for Inter aye. Guess the mackems and everyone else will just have to accept we’re a global super power forever.

We’ve got the worlds most fanatical fans and we’ve also got Ferdinand and Ginola, la la la la Ginola.

I get the distinct impression Edwards would love Staveley to lose the management contract. The bloke certainly isn’t on the same wave length as the support this morning.

Probably waiting for Matt Lawton or Jason Burt to file the article. They’ll give him a line to add on at the end so he can add his name.

Same with ‘we are the Geordie boys’ sang at a 1000 mph. You only need to listen to Rangers singing their version of it to realise slower is so much better.
