What’s a mega offer though? Even with Mane and Salah away, if Liverpool sign this chap from Porto, Origi will want out asap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Not sure. You’d have to ask Liverpool. It just seemed like they were pouring cold water on the rumours that he was available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally does, aye. It's mental though, like so exciting but just feels relentless. Probably moreso than ever before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Sure its already been mentioned but short term end to the season? Probably not worth the sign on money at this stage in his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emotic Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Love to have Costa just for the radge, but only as cover after we sign a prolific, younger striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) Really odd career Diego Costa had. 4 seasons of being basically the perfect striker in every way, either side of which he did nothing of note Edited January 8, 2022 by triggs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like every day I see us linked with about 4 new players, most of which I've never heard of, and despite being 2nd bottom, with the lowest points total at this stage for us in our history, we've filled a 52k stadium for an FA Cup 3rd round vs a League One side and genuinely don't believe we're going down whatsoever. It's just so strange. I'm just praying I don't get some bad reality check... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I think to avoid relegation we need to fill the following positions: LB CB X2 Cm Cf x2 6 more players on top of Trippier, probably can get away with a back up loan option for the second striker. Seems like a big ask for owners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said this last night - the last few months have been a microcosm of being a Newcastle United fan: shit owners and a shit manager get replaced by rich owners and a good manager, and we've failed to capitalise at every stage. Owners come in and don't sack Bruce, so we don't capitalise on the feel good factor vs spurs. Then Howe comes in and gets covid so he's not at his first game and we fail to capitalise. Then Clark makes a stupid decision that gets him sent off and we fail to capitalise vs Norwich. We sign Trippier and then fail to capitalise vs League One opposition when we desperately needed a confidence booster. Hopefully this all becomes a distant feeling in years to come, but to date it feels like we're strung along and not allowed nice things - there's a carrot in front of the donkey that is NUFC and we just keep on trying to get it and missing.

The most important thing is to get them in ASAP so we're not bedding players in until march. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
