Now That's What I Call Transfer Rumours! 7

Momentum and a high level of consistency is massive, especially this year where most teams can beat the other team with some luck. If we manage to have consistency then that can take us very very far. Not many teams are consistent this year. Only Man City. Arsenal have been very good but I can see them dropping off if they have a couple of bad results. 

“Fourth-placed Newcastle have now won five of their last six games. Eddie Howe's side are unbeaten in eight matches and have lost just one fixture all season. With this sort of momentum, this club is historically difficult to stop.

You have to go back to 2006 for the last time Newcastle won five Premier League games in a month and 2002 for the last time the Magpies won this many matches (18) in a calendar year. On both occasions, Newcastle ended up playing in Europe”

How’s this Diaby been doing this season - anyone watched him?


He scored in the champions league recently (Miggy type goal) but Leverkusen lost 2-0 yesterday though and are still in 16th.

 

Hes scored twice this season and 3 assists

My wish for Christmas is that we can sign reliable and similar quality backup for our vital players namely:

 

Pope

Trippier

Botman

Joelinton

Bruno 

ASM 

Wilson

 

When do we get the backup in, is anybody's guess. But I fear whoever we have as backup to these players now, aren't at the same,high level.

 

I imagine, among the players we will go back in for would be that young RB at West Ham that we failed to sign on deadline day.

Doesn’t he already qualify for a work permit? Hence why we delayed the deal until after the last international break?

Don’t think so, hence all the talk of a loan to Portugal. If he plays a lot in the WC then that changes and he would probably qualify for one.

I dont think where we are in the table will change the transfer strategy, they seem very rigid on their plans going forward concerning transfers and wage structure etc. 

we don’t truly know what that is. They seem fluid and dynamic to circumstantial change, and prepared to grasp opportunities as they see fit. But yes, they have a structure, one they can adjust if it suits :indi:

Plans changed due to Wilsons injury indeed, just not sure the same will apply when we are doing as well as we are with the current squad as Howe is so big on squad harmony and I doubt will want to bring in more players than planned. But who knows, still expect us to sign 1/2 in Jan.

I think it'll make a huge difference - top 4 wouldn't have been the target at the start of the season. Come Jan if we're still there I think there'll be a change in strategy to try and keep us there.

There is/was some confusion over it, I think it’s listed to expire summer 2023 but there is an option to extend I think.

Yeah, option by the club, so it’s basically until 2024

https://theathletic.com/3640491/2022/09/29/brighton-trossard-macallister-contract/

 

“Belgium forward Trossard and Argentina midfielder Mac Allister currently have deals which expire in June 2024.

Those deals including one-year options for the club, as previously reported by The Athletic, but both players could now be set for an extended stay.”

At this stage, I'd say it's pretty easy to rule our which players we aren't interested in.

 

Playing for a top European side already

Likely on wages higher than 100k

Likely to cost more than 50m

Aged over 29/30

 

It was different last January, when we needed experienced players. We will be in the market for young, hungry players who are ready take a step up from a Levekusen, Lyon or a Lille.
