Otherwise I think the wages will be too high and I'd question their motivation as they might perceive joining us as a step down. But Roque is still young and I'd love to see how he'd do under the wing of our boys from Brazil with Howe and Co's coaching. Off to Sporting apparently Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 I remember reading an article about Mitchell when he first came in. One of the main things in it where how he would spend the clubs money on transfers as if it were his own. Wonder if we are seeing an example of that now.

It's a trait we need, though I'm not sure our lack of transfer business says that one way or another. No news on Isak / Gordon could be an indicator (though it's entirely possible one or both are already done). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 We aren't entitled to exciting transfer windows i don't stress too much about them nowadays, because we have vaguely competent people in charge. Just sit back and let it play out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gospel that is Capology has Ferran Torres on about £165k a week before bonus which is likely the top end of what we're paying the likes of Bruno. I think he'd be a possibility.

ExiledGeordie Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) I think the club does need to do something positive in this window though. It will have been a poor one if nothing else comes in and it would help generate some excitement and momentum. I can’t see top four without a couple signings either as I’ve said before.
