TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Left-back Bernardo from Brighton linked. Bought by Hughton from RB Leipzig but Dan Burn has been preferred by Potter. Looks like he will be available on loan initially. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 If Matt Ritchie is indeed going the other way, how do people figure the valuations of both players will play out? I've seen mentions of Bournemouth wanting £30 million If so, how much does Ritchie potentially knock off of that? I'm guessing £10 million? Considering his injury history I wouldn't pay more than £20 million at the very most for Wilson. Ritchie + £10 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Wilson won't happen because Bruce won't let Ritchie go. Seems to be Bournemouth who want him rather than us trying to offload him onto them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I think Richie + £10m has got to be seen as a good deal for both sides? Given his big injuries they’re off their head if they think they’d get £30m for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering his injury history I wouldn't pay more than £20 million at the very most for Wilson. Ritchie + £10 million. I’d say Wilson would be £10-15m more than Ritchie. If Gayle was fit I’d have tried sending the pair in a straight swap. If we get Fraser I think we’d have ended up much stronger for £0 spent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cheesy Beans Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 We’ve not even made a bid yet. We’ve got 1 striker (Carroll), who is as reliable as Dominic Cumming’s eyesight. I’m not counting Joelinton because he’s not a striker and is fucking useless. We needed a striker before Gayle got injured, Gayle got injured over a week ago, yet we’re still sat here without making a single bid for a striker. Incredible. Put £300 on us to be relegated, fuck it. Got 3/1 which I feel is like printing money at this stage. The only way we’ll stay up is if we’re taken over; win-win.

Joelinton is actually far too good for us, funnily enough. We are an archaic club stuck in the dark ages. We shouldn't bring such players to the club. He's too fancy a toy for the manager. Get a robust lump that can give and take lumps and get him up top to barge about and battle for direct balls. Forget all this fancy dan tactical stuff. Needs to get stuck in.

I get your point, but Joelinton is just shite unfortunately. Based on one season under Bruce ... um, okay. I'll trust the opinion of the best young manager on the planet in Nagelsmann, over any of our lot. Ironic that RB Leipzig were looking to sign him last summer so he could follow his manager from Hoffenheim, only for us to blow them out of the water, and subsequently misuse him completely. The joke's on us really. As always. https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/newcastle-see-path-cleared-for-60m-joelinton-as-leipzig/1wvrb337m69af1nt9u89ourr5q Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I disagree man, sorry How many players have come in under Ashley and been called shite and then gone on to do well elsewhere now? Just sign the grafters that work well with these managers he likes and everyone will be far less frustrated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 He’ll have a better season this time round, especially if we get someone like Wilson and he drops deeper. Still though, terrible signing, up there with our worst. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 It was just so poorly thought out considering we didn't have any goal scorers in the whole squad, upfront, out wide or in midfield. A complete disaster. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I hate to rag on him but it was night and day when Gayle came in after lockdown. He misses chances but he actually makes the runs to create them. Joelinton's got zero interest in scoring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 It isn't even just his finishing, he hasn't demonstrated any quality in other attributes you'd expect in a wide forward like a good first touch, close control or dribbling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
