Gola Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Think this is a great move - for us and for him. In the positions he can play at the back we've got: Hall, Targett Botman, Schar, Burn, Lascelles and Kraft Considering we'll be bringing in another CB in the summer, keeping Kelly would be a bit daft.

Ben Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 We'll probably announce a contract extension for Schar tomorrow *like a new signing* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s a good sale too but it’s pretty disappointing if we offload two players and aren’t able to bring in anyone at all this window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Without sounding like a broken record why could we afford to bid for players towards the end of the summer window but not now ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly we could have spent in the summer (as we could now) but that would mean we'd have to make substantial sales before 30th June, which is the same hole we got ourselves in when we had to shift Anderson and Minteh.

GeordieToon Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Someone at the club needs to update the fans Of what's going on. No updates from the club since Staveley left. The majority of this side looks very tired. And no one on the bench to make a difference. no decent signings for 2 years, We seem to be back in the Ashley era.

Communication has been shite since Wor Amanda left. Everything is left to the manager to be the mouthpiece of the club and thats not fair. Mitchell and others need to step up and help Eddie out.

What difference to your life does it make knowing what the transfer plans are v not? Also, good job on letting our rivals know the exact situation we’re in. They also do communicate and we’ve seen it through the FAB, Stack events. All that have happened since Staveley left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get Howe representing the club on a weekly basis. I don't think we're different from any other club from my dodgy memory? Does the hierarchy at Liverpool, Arsenal or Man City comment regularly? We've had some interaction (the Stack event). I'm not critical of your view and definitely preferred the Amanda Staveley approach but feel that era was the exception rather than the rule.

Keegans Export Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 There's been quite a lot of communication from the club in fairness. We've had one or two things at the Stack. Brad Miller has done some on the record stuff. Silverstone gives quotes every so often. Are people expecting weekly updates? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 After Mitchells interview and the reaction after it after the last window, I’d rather they didn’t say anything tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) Whatever and whenever we sign a new player I want it to be composed and technical players that improve us in general play and possession. Would also like to see Howe come up with something that improves our control regarding this. I still think we should do better with what we have to be honest. And no, I don’t want us to be like endless tiki taka, it’s not about that. If you think we shouldn’t be and do better in this area then I don’t know what to say. As much as I like them we need to replace the likes of Burn and Joelinton to name two, no matter how well they’ve done at times. To evolve we need to get better in this area, I said it before last season and it’s one of the reasons I was against us signing Barnes.
