Odear Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Lucas is or at least was a very important cog in their machine when they were doing well a few years ago. Screams of a Nicky Butt type signing tbh, same age to if I remember correctly. C Trust in Rafa but my own personal opinion, if he's coming here as a captain, that will set Lascelles back a bit.. who I think is the long term option as opposed to the short term fix.

Of course it won't set Lascelles back Think expectations of him are a bit OTT. He had a good half dozen game spell against a lot of sides playing for nowt. He stepped up to the plate but we still need senior heads and Lucas' experience is prime captain material Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Looks like Rafa's idea of wanting two teams that can win the championship is coming off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Having Lucas massively decreases the chances of Colback playing so I'm all for it. Lucas patrolling nowhere beyond the halfway line, winning it and giving it to Shelvey I could see working very well. Frees up Tiote to fack orf too.

Guest chopey Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I still think we could see a few more going out Elliot, Winny, Sissy, Gouffran, Janmaat, Saviet, Tiote, Riviere, Sammy, Cabella and Vuckic.When you look at our squad list there is a fair few duckeggs still hanging around.

Lucas in Tiote out would be excellent business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I personally hope Tiote stays tbh, under Rafa he was back to his best at the back end of last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 For some reason, I keep forgetting Tiote is still at the club, TBH. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I personally hope Tiote stays tbh, under Rafa he was back to his best at the back end of last season. He was better for us under Rafa than Sissoko was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I'd be fine with Tiote staying and might even name him captain since he seemed to do well with that role previously but it seems like he's wanted to leave for a while anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Would absolutely love Lucas to be signed outside of the Gini deal if that meant we'd be selling Tiote. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Daily Mail reporting that we have enquired about James Wilson. He's absolutely rubbish and has barely scored a goal. Rather just play Armstrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ndegwa Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Agreed on keeping Tiote. He could do a great job for us this year if he can be fucked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I personally hope Tiote stays tbh, under Rafa he was back to his best at the back end of last season. I've always said there's no point in getting rid of Tiote unless we can bring in a proper replacement. If we can get Lucas though I think that would definitely count. Tiote's only worth having here if his head is right, and that seems to change every few months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RafaelBenitez Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I don't think Lucas will come to NUFC, but if he did, Tiote + Lucas in the middle would be unreal! I wanted Napoli to sign Tiote when Rafa was there, I think he's quality whenever I've watched him play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
