NUFC Transfer Rumours

[Dava1892]

Since Amanda left, there looks to be no real control of what is going on. We’ve had the whole window, already bid for Elanga earlier on which didn’t materialise. Now waiting until deadline day to get what it seems any deal ‘over the line’

[gjohnson]

What's Shefki Kuqi doing these days?

Belgian press reporting Anderlecht close to a Vlachodimos loan.

She was the glue. 

[The Prophet]

It does all feel rather reactive.

[Vinny Green Balls]

Would have probably been a better look to do nothing at this point than this.

Probably the humour

Everyone else has improved their squad whilst we have stagnated. Would you even blame Bruno or Isak for f#ckin off soon

Honestly, I would just make them both available now for cheap, ahead of the 11pm deadline, and get ahead of the problem.

There's been a lot of Staveley praise (much of it valid), but I think it's worth remembering that her dealmaking ability also led us into a nightmare in June. I do think at least part of that dealmaking ability was not balking at requests to throw in an extra X million £.

Honestly, typical Newcastle.  Immediately after being owned by the poorest millionaire in England, we get the poorest richest-owners-in-world-football

Why are some of our fans gasping for the worst case scenario

Yep, these sort of owners 10-15 years ago and we could have spunked a few billion by now. Ridiculous that we are being held back in this way. 

 

[Whitley mag]

We look incompetent and desperate, doesn’t appear to be any scouting network whatsoever apart from overpriced average PL players.

No new RW, no new CB, Dubravka still back up. Fuck me 😂🤦‍♂️

Nunes really really fits our style of play. Would love that, but we'd have to be creative with our lineup.

 

I remember Wolves played him as an attacking mid and on the right sometimes. Somewhat similar to how Emery uses McGinn wide left now, but slightly tucked in.

 

If there's an opportunity to get a player of his calibre, and Eddie can come up with a clever way to incorporate him, I would be all over that 100%.

 

 

Gonna take the other side of this. Nunes was not good at wolves and his numbers have always been rubbish.

Because it’s Toon Law. What can go wrong, will go wrong.

Totally. Apart from getting Botman, Isak, Tonali, and Bruno...

 

Unless something has dramatically changed, which I highly doubt considering that Mitchell is our DoF, then I assume that we still look on the continent. There may be an emphasis on PL experience, but I won't be surprised if a quarter of our transfers are still from the European leagues.

[nufc123]

At least this elite players in the pool stance just flew out of the window.

[Crj89]

Surely Chelsea need to offload a RW.

[gbandit]

How big is Chelsea’s squad currently? Are they hoping to bin everyone off to Saudi that doesn’t go today?

They're trying to buy more

[Miggys First Goal]

That’s why the pool was so limited. Chelsea hoovering them all up. 

[SUPERTOON]

The Elanga bid has kind of made it worse. We genuinely look like an amateur outfit.

Something has dramatically changed 3 of them were in the first 2 windows and we don’t think there’s a better centre half option than Guehi, Kilman and Tosin if you believe the press at the minute.
