NUFC Transfer Rumours

[Menace]

Vlahovic is absolutely built for the premier. Juve are just ran horrendously. I'm surprised no one has took a punt considering the prices of some strikers

Is this the price of shipping them Kelly?

Is this not our LW answer? Sell Gordon to Liverpool. Or is that deal dead now?

Screams Chelsea flop to me.
 

Why are we looking to sell Gordon all of a sudden? Weird.

It is. Weird as fuck. See also selling Barnes. 

It's either FM indoctrination, boredom or stupidity 😉

He’ll be a very good buy for a club, but he needs to join one that’s got a clear slot at LW ready. Liverpool as Diaz replacement is logical, as he’d nail that down ahead of Gakpo.

[Weezertron]

Probably from the understanding that we'll have to sell someone who commands a good fee soon if we want to progress. I don't think it'll happen this summer, but someone we love is going in the next year. 

 

Not condoning it, but I think thats what it is. 

 

Edit: this is in response to the selling barnes narrative.

He's only 22, basically now had two full seasons since his big injury so clearly back up to speed.

 

I'd not even entertain an offer less than £75M. That's pretty much double what we paid for him and I don't think anyone would argue he's not twice the player he was then. 

 

But realistically if we NEEDED big money this summer and Liverpool/Man City would pay that then I'd certainly give it some good thought. That's crazy money for a full back and there's no shortage of quality in the market for us to replace him.

He's an England International as well to. Should rinse more out of them.

It's mindblowing to me that people think we should sign a CM over a GK! 

Pope can go down as a legend for the club for what he's done, but I guarantee no top 6 clubs in the Premier League would want to take him, you can probably go as far as to say top 10, maybe even top 15. Some people massively underestimate the power of an elite GK, it's essential we upgrade our GK in the Summer. 

If Pope plays 40 games next season and Dubs plays 10 we are fine. Not perfect but we are fine.

 

Longstaff/Willock/Miley will play 40 games next season. It's not fine. We are significantly weaker whenever one of them is on the pitch. Every other good team in this division has a quality CM that is on the bench when everyone is fit.

I'm not overly concerned about the definition of world class. Tonali is top dogs, Bruno is top dogs, for our system Joelinton is top dogs. We need a physical beast that can play in that 3 without any drop off. That's probably a £40-60m player. If you can get that quality for less, great.

 

After a RW, CB that's the next priority position for me.

 

I think the club will put a goalkeeper and striker ahead of CM, unless the RW can also double as a striker.

Oh great.  Another prolonged summer transfer dealing with that bellend. 

[McCormick]

Eze’s great but spending big money on potentially another left winger seems pretty silly.

[joeyt]

If we were to only sign one player from Palace would people rather:

 

Guehi, Eze or Wharton

I do think he’s a target for an upgrade for a team playing in the CL though. Has to be counter-balanced with the need to upgrade elsewhere though and too much change too quick won’t go well.

You'd think these websites would try a bit harder. Who thinks we'd spend £68 million on a player for one of if not the only position we've already got 2 credible/interchangable options, not to mention he's 27 in the summer and only six months younger than Barnes anyway, when we've got glaring needs elsewhere now or will have in 12 months time.

 

Still they've made me bite so they've done their job 

[The Butcher]

Don't want Eze after THAT pen against us. That's all it takes.

[janpawel]

So links to Cunha, Semenyo, Eze

 

If the links aren't a load of crap, then seems we want a left sided, athletic, versatile attacking midfielder then? 

 

Though feel like the Cunha link is the only legit one

Guehi addresses an immediate need.

The other two are cold as well and I'd happily welcome them but an athletic & experienced CB is essential imo (alongside a RWer)

[andycap]

Pope has been fantastic since coming back into the team his form is back big time, I wouldn't let him go at all he's class.

Who is Matthijs Pog?

 

According to Juve fans it's a fan aggregator account, not a journalist or someone with any sources at the club. Apparently has a reputation for making stuff up as well.

[nufc123]

Pope not top 10 

[Weezertron]

I still think we need a smarter transfer policy than going after all the best players from the rest of the premier league, if you believe the papers.
