We've seen with Wood we can be ruthless. Concrete balloon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Just now, Holloway said: Concrete balloon Yeah. As much as I defended Wood and could see the logic in the signing and what he brought to the team at the time and obviously the bonus of a decent fee which made it make even more sense. Even I couldn’t compare the performances and impact between him and Burn. Burn replaces Lascelles in every sense in 12 months unless he’s JL is sold earlier.

Overall Burn's contribution has been magnificent since he arrived even though he isn't the most accomplished player. To get shot of him now is unthinkable, even just from the team morale point of view Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then cover for Schar should then be priority. Personally I’d rather wait a window or two and get someone to replace Schar in the first XI.

WilliamPS Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 25 minutes ago, Optimistic Nut said: Dummett, Ritchie, Gillespie, Lascelles...how many cheerleader types do we need? Can't be having a 1/5th of the squad there just because they're popular. Difference is Burn started pretty much every game last season, he contributed on the pitch and isn’t a cheerleader. even with a new LB an injury or suspension to Botman and Burn is in. Dummett, Ritchie and Gillespie will likely never start a game for the club, excepting maybe cup first rounds - at the same time until there’s funds to replace there’s no point booting out players who are good characters and are happy to sit on the bench Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a contract until 2025, he'll be 33-34 in the 24-5 season, he's not the most mobile to begin with nevermind in a year's time. You'd get someone like Burnley who'd think £12-15m is a good deal today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobsonsWonderland Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I wonder when the likes of Frazer and Hendrick and the likes will start to depart? Don't think the likes of Luton and Sheff Utd will do a forest and look to pick people up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Class club to link up with if that's the case. Good level to send players on loan and a club who consistently produce top talent that we could do business with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendrick's wage will be the issue for him, could see him at someone like Birmingham on loan. I think we have written off Hendricks wages along with others in the last set of accounts. A staggering £14.2m was also added into that pot covering “onerous employment contracts”, which essentially means writing off the wages of players who are no longer considered part of the first-team squad. That is likely to include Jeff Hendrick, Ciaran Clark and Dwight Gayle. https://theathletic.com/4375304/2023/04/05/newcastle-united-accounts-explained/?access_token=11519933&redirected=1 Edited June 24, 2023 by Matt1892 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackflap Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I'm sure we're planning a couple of summer windows ahead with 2/3 elite signings in each. RCB and RB will be the plan for next summer I reckon. Think it'll be a loan or young cheaper CB option this summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I quite liked the idea of Adarabioyo at Fulham because he will be relatively cheap. Huge in stature but still quick, used to playing with the ball at his feet for Fulham. Just don't think he's ever going to be top class. Would be a squad/stop gap signing to upgrade on Lascelles - and I think we're clearly trying to avoid those kind of signings in general. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
