Going back to page 250, but I'd take a punt and buy Tammy Abraham, not loan him.

 

(as one striker of course, not the only one we bet the season on)

 

Me too, still young enough for Rafa to coach him up of course. An unsuccessful year at Swansea will have helped his price tag a little.  I would want another striker though too, a little more proven in the top flight in a major league. Selling both Mitro and Gayle to help fund both moves. Getting rid of joselu would be a bonus too but we would need a third striker if all three left.

We absolutely have to go for Tammy again. I agree that we have to take advantage of the fact his spell at Swansea has maybe even decreased his value a bit, as it was more down to them being a mess.

 

Think we could get away with a loan with an agreed deal in place at the end, and should be all over that. Rafa really went out of his way to get him, and so clearly rates him and sees him working well in his system. The kid is very talented and is a fantastic athlete. I'm sure Rafa would be the making of him.

I know he hasn't had much of a look in at Leicester this season but I'd be tempted to have a look at Iheanacho still.

Been impressed with Ryan Fredericks at Fulham this season. Could be decent competition for Yedlin if Fulham don't go up. Free transfer too

 

I was just saying the same thing. I’ve seen him 4/5 times this season and each time he’s looked very good.

How's Targett played for Fulham this season? Remember we nearly got him last summer. Would be good to get someone to really push Dummett.

Was pretty poor in the game I went too.

We should defo be looking at Bauer from Stoke. Doubt Stoke would be looking to sell and considering he moved in Jan I cant imagine him having much of a choice in what Stoke say, so would have to pay a decent fee. Feel he'd be an ideal fit for us and Rafa though.

Read that Boro would be looking for no less than £20 million for him.  Guess that’s what a relegated defender whose team failed to gain promotion goes for these days

Got a Smoggie mate who knows him personally, gets tickets off him etc and he says that Gibson says he rather chop his leg off than play for the Toon, bit short sighted in my opinion but if he lacks ambition......................

Yeah, I know he hasn't scored enough goals at Swansea, but he does look quite similar to Slimani in that he is big and mobile. Maybe not as good in the air, but you could really see him fitting into the Rafa system as the lone striker.

If that is true I hope he declines our offer should we get a bid accepted and offer him wages much higher than he is on now. Bit of a shame that it is Newcastle he has something against, but I like the idea of players with integrity to follow something other than their bank account in this day and age.

Swap deal - Mitro for Cairney?

 

Why? He’s a replica of Shelvey with same weaknesses.

 

Yeah that would be a huge gamble of a deal, remeber Cairney has not played at the PL level. They could use him to sweeten the pot a little, but there would be money coming our way too in that kind of deal. Goal scorers always coming at a premium, and remember Cairney is 5 or so years older than Mitro too, with no PL experience.

 

Sessegnon is the one I would be pulling the stops out for but unlikely we could get him. I would go after his brother too.
