HaydnNUFC Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Feel we're still short in attacking areas. We're an ASM injury away from having absolutely zero threat. Good additions elsewhere however and I never thought we'd ever get a player like Bruno. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 It is a very good window, but it has not fixed the biggest issues with the team unfortunately. Good effort, must try harder as my school reports used to say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 An additional attacker would have been nice, but it's still a tidy with two excellent additions and three solid additions who will all improve the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Desperately needed another wide forward. We're a 1-man show now with ASM. Which is ridiculous in itself, but if he gets a knock we're a 0-man show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillingtonMag Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Needed a forward for a perfect window, at least we know they tried like but still bit gutted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

God help out board Yeah, let's just be happy with what we get no matter what it is, right? No reason to question if it can keep us up. I mean a none attacking LB, a CB that has lost absurdly many areal duels for his size and height. And two fantastic players. What happens if/when ASM gets injured or if Wood blows a knee?

The Butcher Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 We've a much better squad than the rest of the dross down there. Howe wants shooting if he takes us down now imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 It was absolutely critical that we signed a FB, a CB, a CM and a CF and we've done all of that. We're a good attacking player away from being nearly certain of survival so it's pretty good going. Hopefully the gaps left by failing to sign Lingard/Ekitike will be filled by good coaching and positive tactical choices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can’t rely on injury prone Wilson, ASM and Wood to fire the goals in that are needed. Hopefully the new defenders can help us let in less than we score then.

Paullow Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Certainly a disappointing day if that is indeed us done. Woke up with 2 fresh signings looking likely, ended up with one of those falling through, and nothing additional. I was WFH today (and had SSN in the background pretty much all day), but feel sorry for anyone who specifically took the day off work for 'Deadline Day' Overall I'd say a 6 or 7 out of 10. 2 signings that should really have been signing for clubs further forward at the moment, and 3 others with vast PL experience, mostly covering positions we needed, and probably all improvements on what we have, if not spectacular. One more attacking signing and it would have been a solid 8, but I guess you can't fault the effort of the owners, and they have invested ca. £90m.

For what we’ve spent, I only see Trippier and Bruno as improvements. Everyone we've signed is an improvement on our squad like, some massively some by a small amount, but we're in a much better position to where we we're a month ago.
