madras Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Just now, The College Dropout said: As in too good to be true? there were a few here not hot on Raph and Phillips. And they’ve both ended up at some of the biggest clubs in the world. Maddison and Cornet for £70m is good work imo. Get us Werner in on loan and we are going for Europe next season. (suddenly our central midfield looks terrible) Re the central midfield, its why I prioritise a right sided centre mid (if we continue 433) slightly more than a winger. If we want to play a possession dominating game, only Bruno is comfortable receiving the ball from the back when it's not a counter attack. Others will twig on to this soon enough and combat Bruno similar to ASM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(suddenly our central midfield looks terrible) Yes, as in I just don't see Maddison happening, I feel even if he was available one of the CL clubs such as Man U or Spurs would be in there as well. The Hudson-Odoi link on the other hand definitely feels doable, and that makes me more excited tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BennyBlanco Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 I’m still in utter disbelief that we are actually in a position to be bidding £40m for a player of Maddison’s calibre. What an exciting time to be a toon fan lads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 He has a point to prove in this league. I'd be very excited with the signing and what Howe could do with him. Not sure I believe it though. Would take him and CHO on loan to buy then re-bid for Maddison. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Yeah Werner and Cornet would be very solid business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 If they added just Maddison we'd still need a striker, assuming Maddison would sometimes go out wide. Though I would probably (wrongfully, mind) be very happy with just Maddison. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee_Johnny Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 I know it risks a wishful jumping to conclusions, but a sudden willingness to splash a large fee on a midfielder maybe linked but a strong sense of being able to fill another needed role with a loan, like Werner for instance.

It's a bit weird that we get one report saying we are in talks with Chelsea for Odoi, then on the same day we are in talks with them for Werner. We can't be in talks for both players so I think there's a lot of guesswork going on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
