NUFC transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

What's this talk of Lucas Orban? Ryder's posted something, too (not that means much). He's a left-back...so seems it's the theme of the day.

 

Was linked this morning.

 

Ah :thup: First I'd heard of it.

Siqueira news has come since then though

youtubed Doumbia......not impressed..

 

Well if he's not impressive on you tube highlights we're f***ed.

 

Just about to say this :lol: YouTube makes Obertan look good. Yet all Doumbias goals are terrible and the sort of chances we would never present him with. Wasn't a special goal in the whole video of highlights I watched :lol:

Not sure I would pin my hopes on him getting goals to keep us up.

 

Not going to pretend that he will definitely score the goals we need. However, He will certainly make us a much more dangerous team going forward with his speed and dribbling. We will have defences more stretched and opened up with him in the team.

 

Having said that I do personally think he'll score also, for what it's worth.

If we end up with Saivet, Shelvey, Townsend and this new LB and Doumbia on loan would people be happy?

 

Better than nowt but since I've never heard of Doumbia before today I wouldn't have thought he's necessarily going to be the answer to our goal scoring problems.

I'm more encouraged about the Siqueira signing on loan at left back than Doumbia tbh. That is at least a signing that will obviously strengthen the first team and plug an obvious gap in the squad.

£96m net spend in the last 5 seasons now.

 

That's exactly why I always thought that was a shit gauge when people were talking about our transfer activity because no way are we doing better in the market than 4-5 years ago when we were selling Carroll, Barton, Nolan etc and signing Ba, Cabaye, Cisse...

We needed a proven goalscorer, a proper CB and a physically decent CM with creative ability. We've got 1 out of 3.

 

And a winger and a left back.

 

Those are the 3 main on-field reasons we're 18th. The 3 most important positions on the field and we are/were lacking serious quality in all of them.
