GeordieDazzler Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I thought Belotti was way older than 28. He’s definitely worth a shout, decent goal return in an average Torino side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee_Johnny Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Noni Madueke. Speculative link with PSV’s England U21 right winger/forward. Seen as being similar style player to Foden. https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/newcastle-united-news/newcastle-united-interested-psv-noni-madueke-transfer-news-magpies/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCK Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I heard we're going to sign Alan Shearer, world record fee £15m (partly paid for by Newcastle Brown Ale). Don't laugh. It's happening. #ITK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 14 hours ago, The Prophet said: There's been reports out of Germany from some good journo's that he wants CL football and isn't interested mind. There's only really Ben Jacobs saying that he is. I'm sure we'll have already sounded out his camp, if we intend on making a bid. Probably similar to the reports coming out of Italy that Botman only wanted to play for Milan. Diaby might prefer a CL club all things being equal, but it might be those clubs can't meet the selling price. If we are the only club who can meet the terms, I wouldn't be that surprised if he said yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Still only 28. Decent return for Torino 113 goals in 251 games. 12 in 44 for Italy —all against shit teams though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Belotti will almost certainly stay in Italy. It feels like he regressed last season too, really poor at times. Edited July 1, 2022 by The Prophet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 More stuff on Madueke from All Nigeria Soccer: Style of play “Madueke's style of play A direct multi-angled threat in 1v1 situations, Madueke is a nightmare to defences thanks to his trickery, pace, ball control, flair and physical strength all working together. In possession, Madueke often cuts in from the right flank with scary directness and ferociousness, working his way towards the opponents' box through the half-spaces where he may fire shots or put a teammate in with a sharp through pass. Even with his back to goal, Madueke is confident in his ability to hold the ball and spin off the defender, instead of playing a back-pass. This ability makes him highly unpredictable.” Their take on us: “Newcastle United With the new influx of cash from their new Arab owners, Newcastle is an emerging force to reckon with. With players like Allan Saint-Maximin, Bruno Guimaraes and Kieran Trippier, former Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe has created an extremely attacking 4-3-3 set-up at the club. Eddie Howe's 4-3-3 is however not based on **Juego De Posición as it is extremely free with players being able to interchange frequently.” They conclude, style of play wise, that they think he’d be better suited for Spurs (though would struggle for game time), Leeds or Leicester. **Explained here: https://spielverlagerung.com/2014/11/26/juego-de-posicion-a-short-explanation/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoSelecta Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Wishful thinking but I do hope they’ll spend to this so called limit on the essential upgrades and then perhaps use it as a bargaining position to get 1 or 2 more in. ‘Luxury’ players if they can get them at the right price; Paqueta for example. ‘We’re happy with our window but we’ll take him at £X’ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 If the club want Paqueta (I don't think they do), it makes no sense to wait. He's a World Cup away from shooting up in value with significantly more interest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downey might be getting told that’s the truth, he might be getting asked to put that figure out, he might be guessing, or he might even be right. It’s all pie in the sky until the window closes and we know for sure. Edited July 1, 2022 by Manxst Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoSelecta Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Bottom line is we need to be spending more then the teams we are hoping to overtake. Assuming a broadly equal success rate in the market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Got to go big on a wide attacker for me if that is the remaining budget. Forward you can get a bit more creative and explore potential loan market, loan to buy options etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
