NUFC Transfer Rumours

I took Eddie's comments around being "Creative" with the next/final transfer of the Summer, meaning that it could be someone a bit left field, who maybe is a little bit under the radar.

 

Wonder if we'd do a loan with obligation to buy like Arsenal have with Raya.

I think what he was saying was that we would have to be creative about financing - either with a loan with option to buy, or spreading the payments.

I can’t see them loaning him to us at all unless we have an obligation to buy at the end.

Looks like Sociedad are in pole position to get him.

 

They're looking at a loan move too, their record signing is 20m Euros so can't see them paying more or less double that for Tierney. If he doesn't want to leave the PL I think Arsenal might do business to get him off the books.

Have we done one of those since the new owners took charge?

Seems like it'll surely be a CB? Seems to be what most of the journos are saying.

 

After that I could see us adding a LB or RW... but only if a deal we really like comes available.

Think it might be a LB as we only really have Targett there as a specialist. Burn is covering and he is a LCB. We are covered in the other positions. We can certainly improve on Lascelles but that would leave us with 3 RCBs. Whoever comes in, if anyone does, I've got total confidence in whatever they do.

Tbf I think either a RCB or a LB would improve us significantly, so I’d be happy with either. 
 

Caulkin seems adamant it’s a LB but Mope reckons it’s a RCB. 
 

I reckon we’ll probably have the feelers out on a few players in each position and come the back end of next week we’ll assess our options. There’s no real urgency this week because any new signing would be unlikely to play v Man City anyway.

I would rather a centre back as cover for Schar, I think tripps and livramento, when up to speed, can cover both flanks

Eddie did say that he thinks RBs easily can move over to LB, but not the other way around for some reason.
