sbnufc Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 There's simply no way Ashley spends £15 million+ on a soon to be 31 year old striker. If it keeps us up then he sells the club for money I doubt he'll care Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizero Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Time for Per Ciljan Skjelbred to finally get his dream move to the Toon... Could do worse, think he captains Hertha Berlin these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 There's simply no way Ashley spends £15 million+ on a soon to be 31 year old striker. It seems very unlikely. The kid up at Celtic would be my bet. Kenedy, a striker and a goalkeeper. Enough to keep us up? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 A good striker would keep us up IMO. Unfortunately they're expensive and hard to come by. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Gameiro is "yes please" territory even when we're acting like a normal club, not just desperate for anything. So yes please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I can't think of any successful cases for experienced La Liga striker in EPL. The "best" is probably Llorente. I simply don't think Gameiro can adapt at this age, midway through season. Gambling 20m on him now is really a bad one to make. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Get whatever striker Rafa wants so atleast he has his 1st choice striker to use week in week out. Sell Shelvey and use the cash to get a decent keeper in, maybe Reina since Rafa still thinks highly of him. If Mitro is off once a new striker is in, maybe a no.10 would be a nice bonus.

You know what he means man. You'd assume it's easier for a 23yr old to adapt his game in what is supposed to be a more physically demanding league than a 30yr old.

TRon Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Gameiro didn't particularly want to come here last time round IIRC. His commitment would be a worry if he really is the one we're in for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleBingo Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Was told that Rafa really wants Sturridge, but isn't confident of getting him in due to the sort of money involved, and other clubs being in for him. Same script with Slimani. Fuck knows who will end up with, hopefully he can pull a rabbit out of the hat somehow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Would feel somewhat underwhelmed if it's Gameiro really. Was hoping Rafa had a rabbit under his hat. Does Gameiro still have the pace? Not seen him play for years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
