But now twice say no idea? maybe consider how you label people, if you have no idea? “Massive racist” or using the word “massive” before another word is a pretty common term in the English language that’s often used to comic effect when not being entirely serious.

Willow Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Ignoring what it'd mean for potential outgoings, I'd absolutely love Barnes here, always been a fan of his. If it's about £35m get it done asap tbh imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 1 hour ago, Optimistic Nut said: We apparently rejected £85m for Botman before they moved on to Gvardiol. Edit: just seen the source. Nufcblog.co.uk FFS. There's some reports saying they enquired, so maybe that was the case. A lot of noise that we were in touch with Sporting about Inacio who is a similar profile to Botman. Maybe we did some due diligence incase Man City put together a crazy offer for Botman. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1892 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 If City offered £85 million for Botman as their first offer then I’m surprised the club were not open to entering in to negotiations. He is good but he’s not irreplaceable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is good but he’s not irreplaceable. Exactly. Would have fitted the model of buying the next two Botmans - Todibo and probably another player. Aim would be a single mega sale per window and buy the next one or two until we’ve got a stacked academy to fall back on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choppy Chop Chop Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 " Newcastle have rekindled their interest in Moussa Diaby this window while Harvey Barnes is not a priority. We understand that Eddie Howe wants to go back in for the Bayer Leverkusen winger ahead of the club's return to the Champions League. Newcastle also like Eintracht Frankfurt's Jesper Lindstrom, who we revealed wants out of his current side this window."

He was allegedly a primary target last summer, but didn't want to move as he thought he might not get in the French World Cup squad (lol) He plays in a position we need to upgrade We'd seemingly have a free run at him Leverkusen have just signed a potential replacement Seriously though, please bid for someone.

Toon88 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) Few concerns on Diaby. Bundesliga stats are misleading, as we’ve seen with Havertz/Sancho types. Apparently, we have the ‘free run’ at him. That’s never good. It means nobody else wants him, or values him above £50m. The other concern is, he’s not really elite for that kind of money, and he’s only on the fringes of International football. Physically he might be rapid, but he still might need to bulk up, and take time to adapt to the demands and physicality of the PL. I know some have concerns on Barnes, but he’s £15m/£20m cheaper and proven in the PL. Edited July 6, 2023 by Toon88 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
