Newcastle Fan Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Doubt they will allow Mitro to join us, he's the star of that league performance wise and his team are heading for the title. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I’m not sure a striker even changes much for us at the moment. Isak is clearly first pick with Wilson backup. Assuming Wilson isn’t out too long any striker is either going to be 2nd or 3rd choice. Seems pointless this window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I don't think we'll buy a striker in Jan for lots of reasons. Maybe a young loan, but even those stopgap deals don't seem very common in the PL. Usually a loan has some kind of expectation of buying the player later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I've said it before... Howe was bemoaning his attacking options from the bench for weeks... I'd be shocked if we weren't looking at an attacking player, of some sort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 17 hours ago, Whitley mag said: Not sure we need depth additions at the money he’d cost, we need upgrades to the first 11. We should be looking around for a young striker as back up, or preferably a versatile forward who can play across the front line like the lad from Sporting. Howe will end up out of a job if he continues to pursue his preference for expensive British players who don’t take us to the next level. Doubt he sets the scene or has the vital vote on who we pursue. Would like to think no one comes who he doesn’t want, mind, but he won’t be the one responsible for strategy.

Nucasol Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Depends on whether Wilson’s latest injury is a slight fray or a full on shred. Even the former keeps him out for ages. I’ve got zero confidence in Barnes being back even by February so probably need to call for reinforcements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee_Johnny Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I think a forward and a midfielder will be the brief if suitable candidates are available and affordable this window. Phillips is obvious and I noticed Solanke’s profile, for example, has him in a range of forward position from attacking midfield to centre forward.

Allows you to push Isak out on the left and rest Gordon, who we're really in dire straits without should he get injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries about him breaking down at this stage. Plus Barnes will be back in a couple of weeks, plus when Wilock returns big Joe can also play there.

duo Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) Liverpool are where they are in the league not because of defensive solidity it's down to their wealth of attacking options. Goals win games simple as and we're severely lacking in that department. Edited January 11 by duo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
