Now That's What I Call Transfer Rumours! 7

I'm still not 100% convinced on Diaby. He obviously has bags of potential, but his game is largely based on pace and finishing. I'm not sure that's what we need, especially in a league where he won't get oceans of space in behind. 

 

That's not to say he won't be a good player, it just it feels like we need someone with a bit more creativity against the low block.

The Premier League tends to be quite open and high tempo so he would fit well I think.

 

However, having seen a fair bit of him now, I know what you mean. I think someone that plays with a bit more subtlety and 'cuteness' would be nice. Wouldn't be upset about Diaby at all though.

 

The news that Spurs might pass on Kulusevski has me all in on that move now. Especially for around £30 million?! That would be an unreal deal. The thought of him joining us instead and going on to be brilliant, and so making a fool of Spurs would be incredible. Would make up for the whole Modric fiasco.

Why for us?

Because I expect them to fall away the

more instability they face. The chances that they keep making really

good decisions on managers and players get thinner over time, especially as they keep losing backroom staff to other clubs

Hello, I'm Hungarian, I've been watching Szoboszlai's every move for five years. I'm biased, that's the only reason I watch RB Leipzig's matches.
Szoboszlai shows the beauty of classic football, combined with today's speed and power. Watch it on the video sharing!
Newcastle is a fantastic team, I would be proud if he signed for this great team. Buy him, you won't be disappointed!
We wish you the best of luck and a successful appearance in the Champions League!

Never said we should do.

 

Just saw he was linked and when looking at the two, I noticed how poor Diaby's defensive numbers were in comparison, so just wondered if that might be something taken into consideration.

 

 

No go at you, its just that his attacking numbers are way better, but then again I dont know what they are demanding for Adli so whats the best deal its difficult to say.

Aye, he's got a lot of talent, but in not sure he's what we need. I wouldn't grumble if we signed him though.

Whoever we do end up signing, the most exciting thing is you know they're being signed with a plan in mind, for EH to work with them and develop them and to augment the quality we have. It won't be haphazard and without any forethought or planning like the entirety of the Ashley era. That's what excites me the most, not so much the specific names we're linked with. It's so nice to have real trust in the club these days on a sporting level.

If Murphy can find himself in space Im sure Diaby could to

Think was job back in Italy, could be wrong


Roma if Jose heads to PSG? If they win the Europa I reckon he’s off - will be FC Porto all over 

 

Milan? Surely Stefano Piolli has enough credit in the bank 

 

Juve? Think they’ll give Max Allegri 1 more year

 

Inter? No

Lazio? No

Napoli? No

 

Then there’s the like of Atalanta and Fiorentina

Köszönöm!

 

He’d be a great signing for us.

Been any stories in the Hungarian press relating to where he might be moving to?

 

Although not sure they’d get much info unless they have some kind of relationship with members of his team/family?

In the Hungarian press, Chelsea, Atletico Madrid, SSC Napoli and now Newcastle were the strongest. One thing is for sure. Szoboszlai is not moving because of the money, he is not interested in that. The challenge is what attracts him. He wants to win the Champions League, that's why he only goes to such a team which one is participating. If RB Leipzig fails to win the right to start, it will certainly change.

Wasn't sure where to put this but thought folks would enjoy the story of the ridiculous rise of Gift Orban over the past year, as he is gaining a lot of hype in Belgium at the moment. It's an incredible story really, and one that almost didn't happen. I know there are so many guys like this that didn't quite get the right break at the right time and fell by the way side.

It's funny watching him and thinking his physicality is not enough for the Premier League, all his coaches that doubted him probably thought the same about their level as well.

Yeah, I think he's made incredible progress in the last year, considering where he started off from.

 

Not sure how far he'll ultimately go, but he's young enough to have a chance if he continues to work hard and learn, like he has apparently been doing.

I cannot fucking wait for June. We are desperate for some depth. So many players in the squad who just cannot come on, and too many players playing too many games.
