I would say it is similar to Gordon in that a player we want is available before we expected, so we are moving to secure them now they are available. A RB was likely earmarked for next summer but with Southampton being relegated it has given us the opening to go earlier on this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt1892 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I wouldn’t see us not qualifying for CL as going backwards but our aim should be a second consecutive season of breaking up the sky big six. If we don’t do that and all of them finish above us then I will see that as us going backwards, as we have failed to keep up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Jamal Lewis, how did I forget him. Hasn't played for two years yet seemingly content to sit on his arse and collect wages. Didn't he turn down loans despite not even being registered? Some commitment to not being the slightest bit arsed about his career going down the pan.

ponsaelius Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 (edited) Not entirely fair on Lewis. He's has had injury problems and he wanted to go out on loan last summer by all accounts but was kept around by Howe because of Targett's injury. Pretty sure he has been repeatedly described as one of the best trainers at the club as well by other players (distinctly remember Maxi saying so in an interview). Definitely needs a loan/transfer this summer though for everybody's sake. Edited July 13, 2023 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just being his usual WUM self by putting that shit narrative when there's no reason to think those will be the only two signings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likelylad Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Surprised we've not got shot of Fraser yet. He's not a bad player but him and Howe have come a cropper. Great signing for a tip Div 1 side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the problem with all of our players who we would like to move on tbh. Hayden, Lewis, Fraser, even Lascelles. All of them are capable of doing a good job for a championship club but no one wants to pay those sort of wages down there unless the player is outstanding.

Manxst Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 And which is why our wages to income % is so fucked, when the likes of Fraser is on 70k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina Tooner Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 If we loan Frazer to a team they dont have to pay him the full 70k. It can be split between both clubs, eg Newcastle 40k and them 30k. In an ideal world we would want him off the books completely but this sorta deal would help in the short term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would he want to drop a league to get the same money though? Hopefully, if he wants to play, but who knows? It’s still a decent amount for a championship team to pay, for a player who’s barely played in the last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
