Edward’s proposing that Nketiah, Solanke, Origi and Cantwell represent our shortlist for forwards. Not really names to inspire huge confidence. 

No chance on Origi with Salah and Mane away.

 

All would be a huge upgrade on Gayle.

:scared: Spunk 17 on that Barbosa guy and hope he its the ground running, if not we might have another BBM on our hands!

Origi would be very decent. Whilst maybe not the level that we aspire to long term, if we're talking about the next 6 - 12 months then we could do a lot worse! 

 

Don't see him leaving Liverpool, Klopp and the squad love him, he seems happy to sit and fill in and play for the team etc. If he wanted to get more game time he would of left by now, imo.

Surely Howe won't sign Solanke twice!? He scored 3 in 42 PL games for him and was one of the main reasons they went down.

 

Strikers are a bit of a lottery like. More so than other positions. I'd be confident in most of the names mentioned for midfielders and defenders coming in and having an impact. Fuck knows with a striker. 

 

Emmanuel Dennis has scored 8 in the first half of the season. He scored 0 in 18 last season over two spells in Belgium and Germany. Who would have guessed that!? Absolute plethora of strikers who have come in for big money and flopped. 

 

Vital we get a centre half and a centre midfielder like as we're going to have to get lucky with a forward.

Didn't @Village Idiotsay his attitude has actually been good at Barca too? Like that isn't the reason he's been shite for them.

 

 

 

Well, he's been more passive on the pitch this season, I feel like he's given up. But off the pitch, etc... he's always been a pro.

 

Anyway, he seems Villa-bound at this point.

I’d love us to sign Diego Carlos, absolute beast and I’m a big fan of talented radgepacket defenders. Not sure he’d want to come though (also don’t believe he’s left-sided but could be wrong).

From the BBC rumours page...

 

Newcastle have been offered France centre-back Samuel Umtiti 28, by Barcelona on a potential loan deal with an option to buy. (Mail) 

 

 

The Magpies are also monitoring 21-year-old Dutchman Sven Botman but the Lille defender's first-choice move is reportedly to AC Milan. (Chronicle Live) 

 

 

Is their agent Jane Plough from Toast of London? They sound like they'd be one of Jane's.

The way our VAR is used he will be sent off every other game. If it’s the same guy I’m thinking of
