joeyt Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Villa fans surely must be hoping Gerrard isn't going to predominantly target players at his former clubs. Feels like him and Lampard don't have much imagination in the transfer market Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love that but also recognise that a more disciplined defensive midfielder replacing Shelvey allows Bruno more freedom to create chances.

nbthree3 Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Star () thinks we're after Kepa in the summer for about £50m https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/chelsea-transfer-news-kepa-newcastle-26336658 It is understood the west Londoners are prepared to listen to any sensible offers around the £50m mark. A loan with an obligation to buy might also be deemed acceptable in the right circumstances. An array of LaLiga big hitters – including Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid – have been actively sniffing around. But cash-rich Newcastle are also prepared to show their cards if they stay in the Premier League. Eddie Howe rates Slovakia international Martin Dubravka highly. Nevertheless, the Toon’s ambitious new owners want wholesale upgrades across the team if they retain their top-flight status. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Watching Monaco Vs Reims at the moment. Unfortunately Ekitike is injured so need isn't playing. However, Ben Yedder is still looking the part. I'd be happy to see him here in the summer. Not sure how much he'd cost but he's 31 and would come with huge pedigree.

Can't just buy 20yr old wonderkids and expect the world immediately, we've got to grow. Bringng in experienced players like him in various positions had huge benefits.

When we signed Kieran Trippier it was a perfect storm. We needed proven quality that required no adaptation period to the Premier League and he wanted to come home. There's always a benefit to experience, but asking a player with no prior experience in England to come in and find success at 31 seems a needless risk. I'm hopeful we stay up in which case we'll have several months to do deals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbthree3 Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10581493/Newcastle-United-preparing-50m-form-French-winger-Moussa-Diaby-Bayer-Leverkusen.html Newcastle United are preparing a £50million move for Bayer Leverkusen's in-form French winger Moussa Diaby. The 22-year-old has been on the club's radar for a number of months and was watched again on Saturday as he figured for Leverkusen in their 1-1 draw at Bayern Munich. Diaby has scored 15 goals in 31 appearances this season so Newcastle stepping up their interest is no surprise but they are wary of increased competition and Leverkusen's asking price. Newcastle are understood to be willing to offer around £50m for the France international but Leverkusen are reputed to value him closer to £75m they received from Chelsea for Kai Havertz in 2020. They remain in the market for another centre forward despite signing Chris Wood and are among the clubs to have posted an interest in Everton's England international Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

Diaby yes, but not at 75m! That seems ridiculous, not sure if even spend 50m on him. I wouldn't want DCL at all, I think he's hugely overrated and would cost a fair wack.

I wouldn't "miss" him, but Hayden would go with well wishes, he's been a decent servant to the club and always seem a decent bloke who tried his hardest. Would be slightly disappointed with Almiron, but thats mainly due to the initial promise he showed then anything else, without Bruce it could have been different for him. This summer is the right time to move him on mind. Rest can all bugger off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This summer is the right time to move him on mind. Rest can all bugger off Gayle would absolutely go with well wishes from me like. Fantastic in our promotion season and although Clark's been terrible and I've never really rated him, I think long-term you have to say he's been a net positive for the club considering his form under Rafa. The list of outgoings should be longer than that, mind, but it's only March so we'll see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Nah I don’t wish them ill or owt, but I wouldn’t be sad to see them go. Hayden, as you say, seems a decent lad and has been a good servant but is hugely limited in his ability. The same goes for Almiron. It’s always felt like as a club we’ve hung onto players who aren’t up for it for too long when we need to be more ruthless. I’d be trying to get shot of Murphy, Ritchie, Dummett and Gillespie too while we’re on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
