Hanshithispantz Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 People have been saying for weeks that he looks too slow, but to trust Howe I don't think there's been a crazy ammount of excitement for him on here this window like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyCisse Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I think the desperation in January got us excited, now we’ve moved into whoever we get will be right stage. If he goes to Milan he’ll win trophies and have a nice tan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Trying to think about it without any bias is difficult but players usually decide what is best for them based on the present situation and not potential of a club and promises of things yet to come. Milan are in a better position than we are right now. 2/3yrs time might be a different story but at this moment they hold alot of the cards necessary to attract top level players. Some players like Trippier and Bruno will look past these things and see the potential of plating for Newcastle and being in the Premier League and those are the players we want. If Botman chooses Milan then that's fine, he doesn't want to be here so right now we don't want him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Scen Bottler more like. Hate him nearly as much ASM and Ekitike. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey47 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Botman seemed very up for joining us in January considering he was liking instagram posts about NUFC. I wonder what changed since then. Not that it's inexplicable that he would choose AC Milan over us but still. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 This is one of those transfers I've largely stopped following. Every day its something different. He is either leaning towards Milan, or Newcastle officials are confident. I will check back in when he actually signs with someone! Also, didn't clock on just how stacked the Dutch are at CB.

Optimistic Nut Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 If we can turn him, that’s a major statement of intent. Think he’s too far along though with Milan particularly in his mindset for that to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 13 hours ago, KaKa said: I think with how well Dan Burn has done we will first look for a partner for him this summer, and so the major centre back signing is more likely to be on the right hand side i.e. right footed. Recently we have seen links with Saliba and Lacroix, who would be young, athletic and quicker partners for Burn. I think the younger prospects on the left side we were looking at in January, we have since moved away from for the meantime. My feelings are the exact opposite - I'm certain their looking to upgrade Burn before Schar. BDB slotted in and did very well, but he's by no means a top 6-8 defender. That's not to say an upgrade to Schar won't happen, just that I think Eddie will look to upgrade Burn first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Aye we are seemingly after a left-footer so it looks like Burn is the first to be replaced. DB is painfully slow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBottle Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 BDB is the perfect squad centre half - he's decent in his position, and he's obviously like a pig in shite being back at his boyhood club. Every minute played will be like a dream for the lad; and given what's happening, if he sees his time out he might just win a medal too. I completely understand why Howe would want to improve on BDB - but BDB will be here next season, which cannot be guaranteed for Clark, Fernandez or Lascelles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
