He's too old to be a prospect signing so does that mean we are looking for a midfielder or does it mean we are looking to ship someone ?

Just turned 23, plenty of room for improvement. May be a Longstaff alternative?

From Austrian media 

 

 

 

Just looked up his Fbref stats......they're.......not good :-/

 

0 assists per 90

 

In the bottom 1% for pass completion. In fact all his passing stats are atrocious.

 

Seems good at taking players on and tackling. Bit like JL7 I guess (numbers only).

Most persistent rumours have *some* truth in them. Interest, conversations with agents or intermediaries.

 


Think all I’m gathering from the rumours, we’re signing someone from Seria A. Far too much noise on different players for us to not be speaking some agents of players based in that league. 
 

BREAKING: Newcastle have £65m bid rejected for Karadona.

From transfermarkt looks like he mainly plays on the LW (https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alexander-prass/profil/spieler/434116) so that could affect the per 90 averages a bit (if that's the case).

 

Bit odd they say he gets 0 assists per 90 when in the years' stats they say he got 4 assists in 30 games (and 79th % expected xG). Also got 2 assists at the Euros.

That first January after we got took over was the peak buzz for rumours for me like. Mainly cos nobody really knew what to expect, and all the players we were being linked with were a billion miles bigger than anything we had in about 20 years. Even the first summer window we had after the takeover seemed to be  abit slower going

What a boring transfer window this has been for us. Must admit I am slightly concerned now.

 

Well at least we aren't short of lowly rated keepers.

Like this type of signings for squad depth.

 

Lower fee and wages from a smaller league, but has shown something that signifies a potential to be decent cover and develop further.

 

Kind of move we haven't done enough of.

Boring yes, but very confident we will get the players we need.  Mitchell will be well on it now following all the internal discussions that would have been needed. He has only just got here. 

Club has been very good at doing its business quietly, so I expect something to happen pretty soon, and ideally before they head of to Japan!

Don't see an issue either but miley, white,tonali, Bruno, willock, Joelinton for 3 spots is already plenty although white only has a year left I think and is 22 just would indicate either a low risk signing or someone going surely.

It's decent depth already on the face of things, but Willock has struggled recently injury wise, Longstaff is going into the final year of his contract and so is in a bit of a precarious position, and then Miley has unfortunately picked up an injury now too, and could do with some protecting when he comes back.

Longstaff into his last year and no renewal talks. No idea if they are similar players mind.

As it stands Longstaff is still going to play 25-30 games, so if there's someone capable of offering something different and could maybe be a bit better, then great.

That's why I would assume someone is going if we were to target someone already 23 for midfield as white and lonstaff both into their last year but will they run down their contracts, extend etc right now despite suspect fitness issues for some we are quite stacked in midfield playing 3 in the middle especially as there is no Europe this coming season.

That is such a bullshit example, Diaz isn't going full speed and think that should be a pen. :lol: 

Just because Diaz isn’t going full speed doesn’t mean it’s not a good example of Thiaw being quick. He’s clearly quick in that clip

'Luis Diaz (locked 8th fast player in EPL last season at 36.42km/h)'

 

Nah, it's a bullshit example but I don't think Thiaw is too slow.

Longstaff is wanted by FC Toronto, but they need to get rid of both Bernardeschi, and Insigne to free up both DP spots, and funds.

Hard task, they wanted to get rid of them in the winter when it was their off season. No one in Europe wanted them, and Saudi clubs were not interested.
