Guest reefatoon Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Don't like the idea of Kenedy being so far away from goal Yep. He looks a real attacking threat. We need goals and for him to be a part of that we need him on the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Kenedy got himself into the number 10 position loads against Burnley. If he can continue to drift there from the left, and that's the reason he goes unnoticed by the opposition, then I'd keep him there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was all over, Rafa will drop him for failing to adhere to instructions. I'm kidding. I hope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon No9 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Nasri is out of contract and could sign on a free transfer. I know he's a tw*t but could be exactly what we need as a #10. Short term contract for the rest of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short term contract for the rest of the season. Would potentially fuck up morale in the final, critical part of the season. Rafa not willing to take the risk, I'd say.

Short term contract for the rest of the season. Would potentially f*** up morale in the final, critical part of the season. Rafa not willing to take the risk, I'd say. Yeah, he probably would. But at the same time we don't have any player with that quality in the final third (maybe Kenedy?). If it's worth the gamble I don't know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I have an intense dislike for Nasri, he's a complete nob and ordinarily I wouldn't want him anywhere near our club but short term to the end of the season this doesn't look bad as a front four: Slimani Kenedy Nasri Murphy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Looking at: - http://www.nufc.com/2017-18html/squad.html Player contracts ending Summer 2018: - Massadio Haidara, Jesus Gamez and Curtis Good.

Players loaned out who will return: - Henri Saivet, Rolando Aarons, Freddie Woodman, Jamie Sterry, Aleksandar Mitrovic, Matz Sels, Adam Armstrong, Achraf Lazaar, Jack Colback, Dan Barlaser and Stuart Findlay.

La Parka Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Should we go down again I wonder who we could keep hold of. Our squad is arguably weaker than the last two relegation seasons so coming back would be even harder. Guess Arma, Longstaff, Good will get games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon No9 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Jackson Martinez has been released from his chinese club Guangzhou Evergrande and is now on a free transfer. They bought him for £37,5M and is now released! He's now 31 but must be better than what we have at the moment. Was very prolific at Porto a couple of seasons ago and we've been linked with him many times before. Someone to consider as an early transfer in the summer?

Mbemba Youre A Womble Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Would fancy chances more if we could sign and register free agents gone January, but no chance we'd be getting him come summer time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Just putting it out there but would people be happy if we kept the same back four next season? I would be although if a better right back or an exceptional player became available I would rethink my position. However what we have now seems disciplined, well drilled and good enough. Back up defenders aside I would rather we invested whatever budget we get on attack, midfield and keeping Dubravka Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 A new LB and RB are needed, although we could cope if we had the same 4 for what Rafa expects. That said - the backup options aren’t really good enough, an injury or two and we’d be exposed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
