NUFC Transfer Rumours

I’m the same. Unless we can get a keeper of Pope’s quality but with better feet then we shouldn’t spend money on a keeper at all.

 

Id be fine with not signing a keeper as long as we get another quality CM in. It’s vital! Both ideally but..

 

 

 

 

Pope's a good keeper, more than good enough for another season or two. We'd only be signing an understudy anyway, and if the Trafford price has gone higher than we originally budgeted for, then we might look at someone a bit less established.

Speaking of signing another CM or two. I’ve not checked but it feels like Joelinton has missed about 30% of the last couple of years Premier League games. I’m not sure how reliable he’ll be fitness wise going forward either. 
 

If we don’t sign a keeper I’d like to see us getting rid of Willock and Longstaff and sign a real quality CM as well as a younger cheaper one like Matheus Fernandes. This would give us genuine quality and good depth in midfield. 
 

I know it’s unlikely that all this happens but yeah, ideally what I’d like to see personally.

Hes not shown himself to be up for a fight so far but buananotti at leicester would be an interesting one at the right price. The dressing room was a mess by all accounts and hes a young guy.

 

There is something there, its how far it can develop

He was on loan from Brighton.

The only player from Leicester that I thought might be a good fit for us was El Khannouss - I was impressed every time I saw him play

To be fair the key injury was when he was subjected to a bad tackle in the Derby game.

If the others are recurring because of that than I take your point.

Fair point. Still would like to get two CM’s in (two out). Would make a massive difference without costing a bomb. Provided that we can get Willock and Longstaff sold.

It’s not that Pope is a bad keeper, but Howe clearly wants someone better with the ball at his feet to play a slightly different way. I thought that was fairly obvious. 

How is it obvious when its Howe who brought him in and kept him as #1 for 3 years?

Wouldn't mind someone better with the feets myself.

Is that a real magazine pic or a fake one. If it's real, and we sign him, I'm switching allegiances. If it's fake and we sign him, I'll just not be happy. 

 

Show me Vardy in a skirt and I'd still want him. For 3rd choice mind,I'd still want a quality 2nd striker. 

 

I wish we played more like Liverpool when it comes to strikers, as I don't think our wingers are good enough.

Because we’ve been trying to sign Trafford for a year. Three years is a long time and when a manager signs a player, they aren’t committed to playing them or keeping them forevermore.

You mean the Liverpool who don’t really have a striker and are looking to offload the ineffectual Nunez this summer? And who play someone who’s really a wide forward there instead, that Liverpool?

They score a lot of goals. Imagine Isak in the middle with a couple of quality strikers either side and slightly behind him.Orgasm Face GIF by Alissandra

We are already the 3rd highest scorers In the league with Isak playing on one leg since the cup final and Wilson needing a zimmer frame to get about the pitch. Don’t think it takes a massive upgrade to our back up striker to close that gap Somewhat given that Wilson failed to score despite the minutes he got in the latter part of the season
