Newcastle United transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

Abbey Clancy is married to Peter Crouch so technically that is a photo of Crouch (Abbey Crouch).

 

I'm a bit surprised that we only seem to be after one more Centre Back. 46 games to play (not including any Cup games) and currently our only specialist Centre Backs are Jamaal Lascelles and Chancel Mbemba (who will be away at the ACON for up to 6 weeks). We've currently got Paul Dummett, Jesus Gamez, Isaac Hayden and Daryl Janmaat (if he stays) who can play Centre Back but you'd think we'd want 4 actual Centre Backs. Maybe Rafa thinks one of the younger players will make the step up?

Are those qualifiers even finished yet?

With Hanley and Hayden can play there we would prob have enough with Lascelles and Mbemba and maybe Dummet. A left back, centre mid and another winger would be nice but can't change everything

Young lad Sterry is also primarily a CB isn't he? Although he's listed as a RB here and there. Rafa might rate him, he's about the only player from our reserves who has been called to train with the senior players.

I thought he was mainly Right Back. Mbabu is centre though and we have that Findlay in reserve i suppose

No but DR Congo have already qualified according to this: -

without looking at all the second place teams if CAF beat DR Congo in the final game they could still miss the tournament

Yes, I think I read they are almost certain to qualify. A draw will do for them. Let's face it, they're bound to qualify as we as Newcastle fans would prefer it if they didn't.
