NUFC Transfer Rumours

[gdm]

Never heard of him. Does this mean the signing for Trafford is off? Sounds like that’s picked a random player in a position we need filled to get this mutual beneficial deal done.

 

most confusing transfer window of all time this. 

[SUPERTOON]

I’m assuming he’s a Karius replacement?

We don’t need 4 keepers surely?

I think he could be a Karius replacement and Trafford is still on. 
 

Depends on the fee I guess

Yeah it’s pretty common to have 4 keepers

[Dandy Man]

Forest fans hate him, Benfica fans seem to have also hated him, promising

Standard practice is 4 keepers.

 

The reason being is that they train together in 2s and 4s.

 

Gillespie is effectively cheerleader. Just the way it is.

Everyone should remember that these dodgy none swap deals still have to be paid for in terms of amortisation. Taking players in these deals who offer nothing really isn’t good.

I’m not that bothered tbh Trafford would have been enough and if this lets us spend on a centre half & RW then all good

So are we all in a better place this morning... We have made 70 million, kept our key players and the sky has not fallen... Yet

Even Keegan had 4 keepers in the 90s and he fucking hated having a squad

Why would you spend big on Kvaratskheilia to then play both him and Gordon out of position?

….He’s not playing out of position. He can play off the striker as he has done before. It allows Barnes to play left-wing. Otherwise, yes Gordon on the left and either another striker that’s gonna complement Isak or an attacking midfielder.

England are losing later and the FA are going to make the call to Eddie to take over.

Training keepers are the new thing... Old pros who are just there for that reason and maybe there to take the strain of  Pope and the  damage to his shoulder

This weekend feels like it's been a long version of the player trading scene in Moneyball

Was watching this the other day funnily enough, for about the fourth time. Know absolutely nothing about baseball but it's probably one of my favourite films.

The Gordon thing really messes with people so much man 

 

You probably misunderstood what very many thought about the Gordon signing at the time though, it's not about proving anyone wrong, my personal reasons were about how he came over on the pitch, his attitude, and he was quite cocky, there was even a moment where I thought to myself he'd already blown it at Nufc, when he had his tantrum at being subbed. Gordon has admitted himself on the overlap and many interviews he's done that he's happy, he was never happy at Everton and that reflected in his performance and attitude on the pitch, he's admitted he's matured massively in the last two years, and he's being managed well. I don't think anybody was questioning his ability when we signed him, but rather his attitude, so Antony Gordon proved nobody wrong or right, he proved to himself he can be the best. Newcastle fans will always back that character in a player.

 

You can remove any chips of your shoulders now pal
