Yeah, Longstaff went off injured against Everton which was a game which had Joelinton on the left and Isak on the bench as he was being rotated with Wilson.

If everyone was fully fit I think Joelinton would be first choice wide left, so I don’t see him there as cover.

Man Utd get Mount Liverpool get Mac Allister Arsenal get Rice Man City get Kovacic Chelsea get Ugarte We get McTominay.

Daily Mail saying we have been offered Joao Felix on loan. Not much else in the article so won’t post the link.

This was what Ben Jacobs said about him in February… What has Jacobs said about Tielemans? Jacobs has told GMS that Tielemans will not be short of potential suitors in the summer and that there is ‘some interest from La Liga and the Bundesliga’ alongside the English top-flight. He said: “There'll be plenty of clubs looking at Youri Tielemans. Newcastle are another Premier League club to watch. “And there’s even, I think, some interest from La Liga and the Bundesliga too in Tielemans because as soon as he becomes a free agent at the end of the season, then ultimately, these type of clubs not only see a bargain because they don't have to pay a fee, but Tielemans’ wages, by Premier League standards, are relatively modest as well.”

One of the main issues last season was that we didn’t have anyone to rotate with Bruno, who could sit deep and play the ball out from the back when needed. Tielemans could do this and open up options in midfield. The other option is that we get someone like Alex Scott who would cost similar over the length of contract when you include his transfer fee, with no idea of how good he could become at the top level. Remember that the young championship player of the year the previous year was Brennan Johnson and there hasn’t been a clamour for his signature on here.

We should be all over that for squad depth.

Is he going to considerably improve our starting eleven this season as that is what we should be looking to spend our transfer funds on.

I don’t think it’s anti British more people preferring the excitement around a foreign signing and how they will do over someone already playing in the Premier League who they think they will have a rough idea of what they are going to get.

Liverpool could be enquiring in a number of midfield players to cover themselves, I would expect us to do the same.

There seems to be a lot of Premier League midfielders likely to move this summer… Maddison Mount Rice Mac Allister Lavia Caicedo Ward-Prowse Tielemans

Replacing ASM on the left.

Chelsea are not signing Joao Felix who is returning to Spain. We should look at a loan with an option to buy.

He has played 5 seasons at Leicester at this was the first season they have finished outside of the top 10, in that they have finished 5th twice gaining European football for both and won the FA cup. Leicester have deservedly had those high finishes due to the quality of players they have had there during that period. They are far from a one man band.

Surprised that Liverpool would let Carvalho go. https://twitter.com/fabrizioromano/status/1663216396740730880?s=46

Dubravka said after the game: "I think it’s normal everyone who has ambition wants to play. But I’m still part of the journey and part of the team which is successful. "I don’t know what’s going to happen after the summer, obviously. I had a conversation with Eddie. We had an open conversation about the future. "It’s hard to say now, because it’s the end of the season now, and no-one really knows what will happen. It’s hard to give you some answers. Now I just want to switch off. I have two international game to focus on. That’s my priority now.” https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/martin-dubravka-holds-open-conversation-27013000.amp

This is the thing, what this season has shown is that we have struggled to switch up how we play when teams don’t want to open up, so while we need midfielders who can press against the top teams we also need those that have other attributes that can unlock sides. We need that ability to swap from 4-3-3 to 4-2-3-1 to offer more going forward when the space isn’t there.

Does anyone know where you can find the winning numbers for the half time draw online? The Newcastle United Foundation one.

I like how honest he is here about his fitness and playing catch up. https://twitter.com/nufc/status/1662892624435355656?s=46

Barnes had 10 assists in the league last season, I think it’s more of a sign of how Leicester have played this season. Barnes and Maddison have 23 goals between them and the rest of the squad have 26.

A £100 million net spend sounds about right. Add in the sale of Wood and a couple of others should push to pot up.
