Unbelievable Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 44 minutes ago, Thumbheed said: Cozier-Duberry in, Minteh out would be excellent business no matter which way you look at it. Really? Don’t know C-D, but then looking at his first team experience I doubt any Newcastle fan not in a scouting job would. Minteh has been scoring goals in the CL and his national team. I think it’s fair to say he’s a bit more proven..? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Be a real shame if he got sold as looks a rare talent. There were some mentions of a poor attitude when we signed him first, but haven’t heard anything bad said from season just gone. Just don’t think he’s a Howe type player. 40m would be ok but I think it gets done for less than that, 20-25 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upthemags Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Selling him for ~30 million PSR profit to turn around and buy a RW just feels off the mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All his stats suggest he never stops running and pressing. I always got the impression he would fit right in to our style of play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 If the target is Olise then selling him obviously makes sense, no matter how unlikely getting Olise might be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s fair to say he’s a bit more proven..? Hard to answer this without being completely disrespectful to Celtic, the nation of Seychelles, DRCongo and Gabon. ACD is seemingly highly rated by Arsenal and us and would be available for free. Edited June 13 by Thumbheed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoSelecta Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 That pizza chart is hilarious - he’s clearly levels above that league. Would be interested to see a similar comparison to Elliot Anderson’s season in League 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And FWIW, ACD does look a very good player from the same sort of clips that we've all seen of Minteh. Edited June 14 by Thumbheed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 6 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: Who the hell is ACD? Very highly rated Arsenal youth player that's out of contract. Amario Cozier-Duberry (Michaels son). We have been tipped to be signing him. Been linked for a month or so to us with the usual "set to sign" bollocks. However, appears more likely we are just being used as leverage for a better deal at Arsenal. They didn't name him on their list of releases as they are desperate to keep him. https://sg.news.yahoo.com/arsenal-amario-cozier-duberry-attracting-112742399.html Totally not Michaels son BTW.

The College Dropout Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 Thanks. Wanting us to sign a 19yo who has never played competitive football over Minteh, is an opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 21 hours ago, gdm said: Lies, damned lies and statistics. Those stats don't indicate he's better than Miggy, merely that he played better than Miggy in the league he is in. It does suggest that there is potentially a quality player there though. You'd have to be crackers to hang your hat on the kid without more data and a proper look in training and in friendlies, which I hope we do. I've seen dozens of "wonderkids" from many leagues turn up and not be up too much. Should we give him a chance? Hell yes. Should we go wild if we accept a decent offer for him? Hell no. IMO obvs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
