Wasn’t too keen on Chalobah from what I’d seen, seems to have a mistake or 2 in him. Had a little look, Chelsea fans look as though they like him, he’s 6’4”, looks quick enough and scores the occasional goal. A lot of his hi-lights show recovery runs. Looks like he could be an Eddie type player. At this point I’d consider 30M for him and walk away from Guéhi.


 


Just remember his OG against Brighton last season... an overhit back pass from just inside his own half.

Had a listen to some of that Douglas podcast (posted by @Whitley mag) on my way back from the gym.

 

Nothing ground breaking. Basically says if we sign Guehi, without sales (and based on Maguire's calculations), there would be £20 million to £30 millon left in the budget.

 

Goes on to say we had serious interest in Botman in January.

 

As we know, also says the club are giving nothing away and all the noise on Guehi is coming from Palace end.

And look at the value we got for them. Solanke went for Isak money, Kilman went for more than Botman, Dewsbury Hall went for Bruno money. There really isn't value for money in this league.

 

 

I agree. The PL market is inflated. This is because I always tell you to buy abroad and not listen Howe.

so in theory we could sign Guehi & muster up £20m in sales (from a mix of Dubravka, Fraser, trippier, Targett & Almiron? ) we would have potentially £50m for a winger 

 

doesn’t sound too bad? Let’s gets these players shifted out

Doesn’t sound too bad, the only issue is mustering up the extra 20 million.

Yeah this has been the issue all window it would appear. Surely we can shift a couple out the door I mean Fraser aside the 4 other players I listed aren’t terrible and should have at least some interest in them. Tho talks of the Greek keeper going on loan suggests Dubravka is staying.

Villa are our real rivals I think. They looked really good the other day and when they broight subs on they were still as good.

Emery is a top manager, we have to hope that europe tires them...

 

Villa have CL and this drains many energies. Your rival for top 4 spots are Liverpool and Chelsea. I see City, Arsenal and Man Utd in the first 3 places. You, Liverpool and Chelsea for 4 and 5 place.

People ignore Villa played far more games in Europe than Newcastle last season. Yes it was a Lower competition and could player a weaker team but they made the semi finals and by the knock out stages the played 6 games with a more full strength side and managed to finish 4th. Yes it’s a tall ask to do it but it’s not impossible

I really want to keep Trippier. He was our first signing out of the dark ages, he's still a very good England international, a leader and good role model for the younger lads. It's not entirely sentimentality though, Targett I hoped would be great for us and I love Miggy just for his effort and smiles but understand they'd have to leave for us to move on. 

 

Dubravka cost us a fair few points last season and whilst Frazer seemed to be the one leaking how shit bruce was Eddie doesn't trust him and he has to go. Plus all this wanting paid off to play for Southampton, he can fuck right off.

Yes, Europe had an outsized impact on Newcastle last year as a) it was the first year of it but also b) the draw was horrific, 6 tough, intense games including two teams that reached the semifinals.

 

Villa have done it before and are very likely to get an easier draw, they could hardly get a worse one, and may get 2 games against someone rubbish that they can play a second string for. It will have an impact on them but I don’t think it’ll be comparable

They will play 8 games and apparently the “Swiss” format makes it less easy to play reserves like the EL or ECL does.

They did, but if you look at their form for when the competition got competitive it pretty much fell off a cliff. They got top 4 more for their form before that.

Not worried, kinda expected, if you really studied the impact of FFP / PSR. 

We’ve offered £60m for Olise & £65m for Guehi there is some money there & Douglas reckons there will be £20m-£30m left over and that’s with no outgoings so there is money there

I feel like we are being very gunshy, looking for the ‘perfect’ transfer. Which is understandable given the FFP / PSR restrictions.

 

At some point though, we are going to have to take a risk.

Why is the transfer window open after the season starts?

 

It just seems a bit daft as it causes disruption and I'm always dubious about the character of folk who come in after the season starts, like they didn't want to be here. micheal fucking owen being key amongst them.

 

Just my feeling though.

Anyone worried yet?

 

Lot to do in 10/11 days

 

 

I'm more bored than worried.

Going into the season without a marquee signing (and the same poor RW options) is just a bit dull. The only saving grace is Tonali coming back genuinely feels like a new signing.

It just feels like a slowing of momentum. The hope was we’d continue to build but this summer and the PSR challenges has dampened the overall pace. Chuck in the non-news on the ground and training pitch and it’s been uneventful.

 

All could change in a week with a couple of signings and their decision on SJP.
