simonsays Posted July 28, 2024 Share Posted July 28, 2024 I assume the majority of those games will be from the bench. We are talking about a 3rd (potentially 4th behind Gordon) choice striker. If people honestly think we are going to get a 1 in 2 young striker to sit behind Isak and Wilson they are dreaming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Not to sit behind Wilson, no. Every effort should be made to move Wilson on and bring in a good second choice striker who could in time become first choice.

The College Dropout Posted July 28, 2024 Share Posted July 28, 2024 On 27/07/2024 at 14:59, The Prophet said: From the Athletic: "Paul Mitchell, Newcastle’s new sporting director, is keen to move further senior players out to reduce the wage bill" Expand Makes sense. On 27/07/2024 at 15:12, Alberto2005 said: I know, but I get the feeling Howe doesn't want to sell anyone because he likes them. Expand Agreed. I believe him when he said he didn’t want to lose ASM. He likes having talented players. On 27/07/2024 at 15:18, Andy84 said: Lewis, Targett, Fraser Expand The lack of Targett rumours lends me to believe he’s on gooooood money. On 27/07/2024 at 16:20, 80 said: Well, Trippier's the most debatable out of that group. The question with him is where his head's at, but if he's switched on and over whatever problems he's had I'd say he's categorically still effective at the top level, and highly influential. He had the best passing stats in Europe 9 months ago. That's not to say we should definitely keep him, given PSR, but pre-Bournemouth away Trippier is a huge loss to the squad. If we ended up keeping him because of Howe and we then got post-Bournemouth Trippier for another twelve months, then yeah, that would reflect heavily on Eddie. Expand For me Trippier is an easy sale at the right price point. We have the replacement. His value is only diminishing. His position requires athleticism that is surely in decline. He’s not that useful off the bench either. If we sold him - I don’t think he NEEDS replacing in the squad. Certainly not with an expensive signing on big wages. id take £18m in a heartbeat. We should’ve sold him in January imo. We knew we needed at least £40m right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
