Stottie Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I wouldn't be surprised if we sold him at 35M and did not get a new yellow dot, let alone a diamond Judging on Maguire's performance against us in the 2-1, I agree with Stifler. Lascelles may not carry the ball as well or hit Hollywood passes, but is a better defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 If there's truth in that I think we'd Ashley’d be open to it (while the player, manager and fans beg for it not to happen, and yet somehow does). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I think Ashley is more likely to reject it and use it as an easy PR stunt to sort of say "Well Rafa's being unrealistic, I kept our captain despite very good offers." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I'd have us one of the favorites for relegation if we lose him. I've got us as one of the favourites now without him going. If he went I would have us down as rock bottom in the league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 If we can look like this next week, it wouldn't be a bad window. We'll have done it on the cheap, but for me we'd be looking a stronger outfit that last season, especially at the start. In: Dubravka Kenedy (loan) Schar Ki Muto Rondon Bryan Out: Merino Sels Colback MBemba Mitrovic Gayle Dubravka is a massive upgrade on Sels and hasn't cost Kenedy for a full season is huge Schar - even at this point is an upgrade on Mbemba simply as Rafa didn't trust him/language etc... Ki - i'd have hoped was a replacement for Colback, but its not the end of the world if he replaces Merino who did nothing after he signed permanently Muto - Gamble but Gayle just doesn't have the goals at this level, questions on whether Muto does, but i think he'll be a better fit for Rafa Rondon - Even as a Mitro fan it'll be nice to move on from the debate and hopefully we see him over Joselu which means for me an upgrade Bryan - Dummet has been great but needs competition and we need something slightly different to him. Not sure if this guy is the answer but seems highly rated enough to try him out. Overall that's a stronger team, especially come the start of the season. Its not glamorous, but neither was the one last year and we enjoyed that season more than any for some time. If we could get some competition for Ayoze then its a sensible window, but not spectacular. A survival window i suppose, but under Ashley its all we've got to look forward to.

Rich Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Still think we might see a Hayden improvement too. It’s obviously still pretty shite overall and not a major leap forward on the season end, but versus this time last year we do look to be ahead.

geordiedean Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Jesus Christ man when teams like Brighton are spending 60m Huddersfield and Fulham 50m NUFC struggle to find 6m for a player who in a few years will be a 30m player I wish the idiots running this club would just fuck off man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 We're not struggling to find £6m are we, we just wont spend money because Ashley is choosing not to. It's a refusal to spend rather than not having the money, disguised as sell to buy but funnily enough we are making money with the sell to buy bullshit.

geordiedean Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Ashley should definitely be investigated by the Premier League as it's blatantly obvious now that's he's not even willing to compete or not even interested in any chase for silverware. It's verging on sabotage man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiedean Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Looking at these it's pathetic really He's a recap of our top transfers 1. Michael Owen (£17m, 2005) 2. Alan Shearer (£15m, 1996) 3. Georginio Wijnaldum (£14.5m, 2014) 4. Aleksandar Mitrovic (£14m, 2014) 5.
