NUFC Transfer Rumours

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.

It’s possibly because for me we are a CB and RW signing away from having a complete 11 imo. I can definitely understand them wanting to wait and get in their number one targets.

I don’t see a RW coming in unless miggy is sold which by the looks of it is unlikely. If we don’t get Guehi I’m betting they’ll go get Gomez at the end of the window and that’ll be it for incomings. Boring I know but that’s my feelings right now.

It would be very easy for us to piss millions up the wall on a marginal improvement and find ourselves financially hamstrung in a window or two when a real game changer becomes available.

Irrespective of where we find ourselves at the end of the window, I'm ultimately confident and comfortable that there'll be nothing untoward as to why we might not have improved like we'd hoped. 

 

Personally think it's a case of clubs posturing and there being a need for some transfers to go through to set off the chain reaction.

Keep our powder dry for January when Chelsea have to start panic selling to prep for PSR.

Think that's definitely the case for the Guehi transfer, probably quite a few moves hingeing on that one.

Yep, we're clearly not as useless as some would like you to believe.

The fact that Gomez can also play RB concerns me, that we'll sell Trippier and bring him in to cover both RB/CB.

We've got Krafu as rb cover

He's done well, but I'd prefer to only play him in emergencies i.e 3rd choice.

[Matt1892]

I would rather have Chalobah than Gomez.

[TheInfiniteOdyssey]

The club haven’t been able to finalise the necessary outgoings unfortunately. 
 

Unwanted players like Dubravka, Lewis, Fraser, Hayden, Targett remain.
 

Whilst more saleable assets like Almiron, Wilson and Trippier haven’t had buyers.

 

It has to have been a factor in how we have operated this window.

Ten Hag the bloke who’s won 2 trophies think he will prove a lot wrong this season.

[gbandit]

What’s the evidence for that claim? The fact that almost every game Ten Hag has managed his team have looked like utter dog shit?

That should be no surprise to anyone at the club mind.

[gbandit]

We will shift some more players before the window closes, I’m confident on that

How many windows have we had to shift players since the takeover? 6, 7?

You're right, we should've shifted out half the squad when Howe arrived

I think so yeah, either Miggy or Trippier 

[andycap]

Dubravka was on the bench against Southampton howe must be keeping him as his number 2 goalkeeper.

Younger and likely cheaper / more durable. Same.

I really hope the plan is to shift Dubs and loan out Vlacho to bring in a capable goalkeeper to challenge for the nr.1 spot.

I hoped so but can’t see it happening in this window now.
