OverThere Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I wonder when we'll get the story about other clubs holding NUFC ransom because they know we need a striker, despite it being entirely our fault for being in this situation This.... of course any well run club would buy the striker first in the likelihood of Gayle or Carroll getting injured..... but not us, as we perrenially monitor or keep our powder dry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I heard today that we’ve accepted an offer for Hayden. No word on the buyers yet though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Day Gadgie Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Bournemouth want £30 million for Callum Wilson. Gerrrrrout of here Really not excited about these relegated strikers man. Much rather Ollie Watkins, Alfredo Morales or Edsonne Oduard. I know he was coming back from injury but he looked very poor in their run in. Definitely not £30m They will end up taking between 15 and 20 for him i reckon. I’d go for it, he’s much better than what we have.

Collage Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Read that Mario Balotelli is available on a free. Would have him, for the laughs if nothing else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 That’s one of the things attracting me to Morelos. It’s probably 50-50 if he’d get you 8-12 goals but he’s a character. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Toon Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 We've done alright this window. A £37m spend on DW Sports and a chunk out of Hugo Boss as well. Not forgetting the big stake in Mulberrys earlier this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Toon Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Newcastle have joined the list of Premier League sides interested in a move for 20-year-old Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster. (Chronicle) Presumably not to buy him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Didn’t our resident Liverpool fan say he’d rather Origi left so Brewster could step up as the understudy? If we’re playing with loans and frees, we could do a lot worse... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1pe Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Steve Bruce probably thinks Cruz Azul is a playable race in D&D One of the reasons I hope the moneyball consortium make a move for us is so we aim for these outside of the box type of transfers. The type that could really get you ahead as a club without potentially costing your club it’s whole budget. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Yeah, watching that was just sad. Just a guy with a youtube channel, albeit a really good one, and you know he has thought things through and has more creative and financially viable solutions than our entire recruitment team has, and he likely doesn't even support Newcastle. It's embarrassing man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 The ironic thing about Ashley's penny-pinching approach to recruitment is that it actually costs the club significantly more over the long-term by refusing to meet the valuations of quality players like Aubmeyang, Lacazette, Tagliafico etc. Then we end up paying over the odds for players like Muto, Joelinton etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as annoying is the lack of effort in identifying the talent that can be had for reasonable fees. It's not an impossible approach, but it's clear we don't really do it properly.
