NUFC transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

Surely the last thing we need is some kid striker from the French Second division.

Why? Do you think he would stop us making other deals?

 

I wouldn't be surprised plus it'd be a key indicator that the buy em sell em strategy isn't for changing and that heads are very much in the ground when it comes to what is needed.

 

We have Ayoze, Mitrovic, Armstrong and Toney. All young, do we need another young striker?

Shawcross would need his f***ing head looked at if he signed for us.

 

Newcastle with Shawcross >> Stoke with Shawcross imo.

 

:thup:

 

He's an 8/10 defender at best but he really does represent so much of what we're crying out for as a team and a club.

I think you could build a good top 7 team with him, Mbemba, Janmaat and the front 4. In order for me we a creative central midfielder, centre-back, left-back, better defensive midfielder, goalkeeper (though I think with a good outfield 10 he's more than ok).

CB CM LB GK, backup RB and striker. Eventually need natural width as well with real wingers

 

Mitro, Perez Wijnaldum + new CM, Mbemba + New CB + new GK need to be our spine come January. Add to that a left back. Eventually need to figure out a good pacy winger who is first team quality too.

I agree, i'd be amazed (surprised) if we signed as many as two though :lol:

We might be forced to expedite those earmarked for the summer like we did when we nearly went down last time. Desperate times calls for desperate action.

As much as I like De Jong, I know he should be sold back to holland so he can salvage his career. Thauvin I'm willing to give time to but he's gotta earn it and I'm willing to give him time.

 

We need another Mitrovic and another Perez second striker of varying talent. We need to stop buying #10 hybrids too

Just ridiculous how we signed De Jong and Cabella, like - just never, ever going to work. To think of the amount of sheep who were buzzing at the back end of last summer, having finished 10th then signed a load of players. Virtually none of which were ever going to be any good.

Why does Shawcross' name get mentioned on here often? Has there been any solid links between us and him previously or is it just a fantasy of some on here to sign him?

 

It's not realistic at all - he doesn't fit the blueprint and wouldn't come here anyway.

If we follow the infamous blueprint who would be Carr's top picks (ie the most expensive ones who probably wouldn't come anyway?)

 

CB - Matip?

CM - Xhaka?

CF - Lacazette?

 

Obviously it's highly unlikely we would get any of these but I do think we will have to splash some serious cash to fix the mess we are in. If not its almost certain that we will be relegated.

Shawcross is 28, he's practically in a wheelchair. Who would we sell him to?

 

Even though I completely agree that he'd have to be off his tits to come here, that in itself is a disgraceful indictment on the state of the club. Stoke City ffs.
