sempuki Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 2 minutes ago, The Butcher said: Ornstein: Newcastle like McTominay but won’t get him in January Newcastle United have held conversations about a January move for Scott McTominay but it is expected any transfer will have to wait until summer, with Manchester United unwilling to sell in this window, writes Laurie Whitwell. Eddie Howe has been on the lookout for a new midfielder and he admires McTominay’s athleticism and ball-carrying ability. United were aware of Newcastle’s interest last summer and McTominay has come under consideration again at St James’ Park this winter given the 26-year-old’s status behind Casemiro in Erik ten Hag’s line-ups. McTominay would be a key midfielder for Howe, while at Old Trafford, players need to be sold to boost Ten Hag’s spending capacity, with UEFA’s financial fair play rules gripping. Sources insist there will be no sales in the closing days of the window, as there is limited time to reinvest and Ten Hag sees McTominay as a valuable member of his squad. But given Newcastle’s sustained appreciation of McTominay and the straitened financial picture at United, the situation is set to be reevaluated in summer. Thank fuck for that. He knows his stuff so that's probably true. We can do way better than him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 McTominay makes sense for a cut price deal in Jan to give us decentish squad cover while we wait for better options to come available in the next window. Making him a top summer target doesn’t exactly scream ambition though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Hopefully Howe won’t have too much to say which player to sign. Having said that there obviously must be an agreement of which type of player to go for, position, attributes, strengths and weaknesses and all that.

He's an easy scapegoat for a lot of people and the downgrade from Casemiro is huge, but we lose that game 9/10 times if it's replayed. Arsenal were more than a class above. One player wouldn't have changed that. You can do better than McShit as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I’d certainly want better (and someone with more technical ability ideally) but McTominay isn’t “gash”. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I still think a few might go out on loan or low bids, Lascelles is allegedly interesting Wolves and Nottingham Forest, Darlow potentially to Hull, keep seeing Shelvey to Besiktas? Think theres possibility of Fraser going on the cheap or loaned, talk of Rangers, Everton, or again Forest. I definitely think if a few these deals come off for our players, we will see two new faces. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Haven't seen the actually video of him answering, but 'not being drawn' implies to me it's something that's being considered/worked on. Usually Eddie will just come out and deny any specific player links if theres nothing in them. Obviously Lampard going could impact any Gordon movement.

Weezertron Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Signing Manures castoffs. Not good, like. Wonder if any of our recently bought crop of players were Eddie's choice? I think we can say for certain that Chris Wood was Not trying to be negative on Eddie, but there's a reason we have a scouting team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
