Sounds like Wilshire will be available.  Been dropped by Bournemouth last 2 games and looking like they won't sign him.

 

Couldn't play him alongside Shelvey though. I thought Arsenal wanted him back.

If Wenger leaves, last player they'll want is Wilshire back imo.

If Bournemouth - a club whose manager I respect - don't want him and won't play him, why do you think he would be what NUFC want ? We should be aiming higher than players a club the size of Bournemouth(but a well-run outfit nevertheless)are going to reject.

I always thought of Wilshere as being a bit lightweight, one of those players who flits around the periphery of the game. Nice footballer with minimal impact. Not what we need IMO.

Tbf Eddie Howe is absolutely terrible at using players he's bought recently

£26m went on Lewis Cook, Lys Mousset and Jordon eBay - that's just this season.

When and if Bournemouth get relegated people can criticize Howe...what he has achieved at B'Mouth is remarkable for such a club and he deserves full credit - people are saying this about Rafa's team selections......!

You can criticise people for certain things while also thinking they are doing a good job

Can get a Paypal refund on that last one though.

He's bought terribly, like. King looks like the only one who's shown any value, and that's only recently. Boruc, Federici, Mings, Gradel, Grabban, Afobe, Atsu, Iturbe, Murray, Ibe, Mousset... quite the list of players who've either not impressed or failed completely.

Our own lists of buys since Ashley took over doesn't look too bright either if you look at it ; for every Cabaye we have a Riviere and for every Ben Arfa there is a Thauvin.....and so it goes on. Joe Harvey was viewed as a manager who had an eye for a player and he bought some good uns...he also bought some real stumours.

KK made some great buys but he also made some bad uns...

As it is, would any of you NOT have Howe as manager if we were looking for one(as opposed to Pardew etc)..? Not that the guy would even look at the job under Ashley.

KKs record was excellent. Either bought well and improved the team. Bought or inherited a dud but sold at a profit and when he did move good players on he usually made a profit. Even the duds were bought for buttons relatively.

I wonder if Rafa would dip into the free agent market this summer it looks like we could get some quality cast offs from Man City and Torres and Pepe are available along with Lucas from Liverpool.

Bjarni Gudjonsson?

 

Didn't we have a player with the same name under Dalglish as well??

 

It was the same player.

I know he's a couple of years younger, but I imagine Torres would have as much impact as Ian Rush did.
