Mikky Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Overall in the squad - say Gordon comes in - what do we need to make us competitive if we do reach Europe next season? As additional squad players after our first XI we have (that most likely will be here next season) Isak ASM Gordon Krafth Karius/Darlow Murphy Targett Anderson? That’s a squad of 17/18 - we need 23 imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonScotman Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 What’s the point in us holding up on the Ashby deal. If we rate him, he’s out of contract in the summer, if he wants to come just pay the money they want it’s not going to be anymore than a million or 2. So if he’s going to be the back up get him in now hardly going to make a massive dent by paying a million now to get him for free in the summer. Quicker Eddie gets a hold of him the better.

STM Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Is there not some debate on whether to take any fee to a tribunal, where NUFC believe they will have to pay less?

Very much meant as a genuine question - I rate your posts and value the insight you provide. Expand I said exactly the same about Edwards on the previous page (I think it was). It sounds like educated guesswork to me, but when a few of the same locals start to say the same it starts to sound like a brief. I'm pretty open that I don't like Edwards, but judging his work objectively, he's no different to most others in that he gets the odd exclusive (Wood) but is mostly wide of the mark (budgets, Holding, Phillips, Perraud, Elneny, Harrison, Nketiah, etc). He's not terrible, he's just not particularly good either. It's when he starts getting all pompous and condescending that I find him irritating.

While he is one for the future I'm not convinced ashby is better than either right now. A DM or 3rd striker is more important this window imo. No problems bringing him in now if we get one of those as well. Happier to wait until the summer when he is cheaper if he is going to have to be our sole focus for the rest of the window.

Add Gordon taking up the AM space and a Maddison type singing tumbles down the list of what we get in next. Would be my personal choice as well, tbh. Bruno can be a much better Maddison as much as I think Maddison is mint. Get a Partey type ball winner/move starter deeper where Bruno does a lot of work early doors, and allow Bruno to receive higher up rather than be the one to win it deep, start the move, then get up and on the end of the next pass or two.
