Mattoon Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 No brainer Valdes or Blobby? NUFC go for the more pounds for your pounds option every time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Tbh, Valdes might be the difference that will give us at least a chance to stay up, so it's not completely out of the question. Every time we have looked like we're going down, we have invested, it could happen again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
olliemort Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I think we will do the usual of let's give big rob a chance who will play decent for a few games and then be turboshit for the next 10 matches then we will panic but it will be too late Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Given the philosophy with which the club is run, someone should tell them that this would open the door to selling Krul next summer, so that Valdez could effectively pay for himself.

sugoinufc Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 are we allowed to sign/loan a new keeper in this situation...im not familiar with the rules. Valdez sounds like a great option (if allowed) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 are we allowed to sign/loan a new keeper in this situation...im not familiar with the rules. Valdez sounds like a great option (if allowed) No. We had the same farce last season with Alnwick plus selected the full 25 man Pl squad so he could only come in Jan. Also brings other issues for anyone expecting us to sign 3/4 players as we will no doubt only do 1 in 1 out so as not to waste wages on ineligible players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Unless someone comes in for Cisse/Tiote/Gouff/Williamson etc we will no doubt get 1/2 in with zero PL experience but they were nearly free so thats all that matters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 We had a good window this summer I think, not enough but a decent amount of good signings. All we need to do is repeat that but a bit more flexibility on age and experience. I know we won't do that like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The window would be brilliant in FM. But in real life it's very difficult to fix a broken team with youngsters from foreign leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 We also didn't add anywhere near enough players. Most of us were saying before the window that we needed around six first team players, we got three (if you subtract Cabella). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality goalkeeper [not going to happen with Elliott, Darlow & Woodman on the books] RB backup [not going to happen] Experienced CB [may get a Matip/NKoulu if deemed a bargain] Experienced DCM [possible but unlikely unless a foreign bargain] Quality Striker [can see us selling Cisse so probably the most likely option and even them Austin looks unlikely so 'quality' would be pushing it] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sugoinufc Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 A quality dcm who can protect the defence (alone) and who is good at passing the ball (forward fast) is probably what we need the most imo. (if everyone is fit) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Newcastle United have held their first transfer summit ahead of the January window, and they'll again target players whose contracts are nearly up http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-united-transfer-hit-list-10251633 What a suprise Some really good players ont hat list. We just need to make sure we get players in the right areas firstly. And we need to improve our athleticism and pace. I would like Matip, Badu Yarmolenko and Campbell from that list.

(if everyone is fit) IMO you need 2 players that can do both. Not just one. Matic did it for awhile but couldn't maintain it. You need 2 proper CM's in this division.

I really hate the idea of playing purely defensive midfielders. What you want is two players in there that bring different strengths to the table from an attacking and defensive perspective. Speed and Dyer was perfect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
