We don't believe any rumours linked to quality players, But we should believe any rumour for a player we don't like And as 99% of our transfers are out of the blue we still need to panic when another journalist jumps on another journalists story about another journalists rumour? Wonder if we are selling Bruno or Big Joe to Liverpool for less money then we are buying Mctominay? I'm pretty sure most of us believe in the Maddison links.. Players like Osimhen however are too expensive for us, especially considering we're not just going to buy a striker and nothing else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Anything below 25 million and I think we'll sign him. Anything above I'd walk away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that secondly, McTominay will be happy to come here on that basis? I don't think its about backup. Its about having two 11s that can do the same job to the same standards. With the 5 subs allowed now the use of the squad has completely changed. We are massively lacking in squad depth, while at least 9 of our first 11 are good enough to be starting next season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but no matter what anyone says, there'll be a first XI and a second XI. One of them will be "preferred" in the big matches, and the other will generally play against the weaker opponents.

Let's get real here, I actually think there's more chance of us signing Messi than either of those two, and that doesn't really disappoint me.

Tierney, Maddison & McTominay for around £90m combined? One huge signing like Szoboszlai added to that and I think it'll have been a good window.

Throw in Lavia and we'll be warming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace one of them with Lavia and it’ll have been a near perfect window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 They'll be a good team I reckon. Can see them getting the likes of McTominay, Ward-Prowse, Harrison, Barnes etc and being around the top 8 again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) https://twitter.com/TransferChecker/status/1667255160077275150 Eddie Howe and his staff have received glowing reports about Scott McTominay’s attitude, work ethic and dedication in training. He is on Newcastle’s list as they search for a couple of midfielders. Manchester United’s asking price could, however, be a sticking point. #NUFC # Edited June 9, 2023 by The Prophet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
