Guehi is definitely up for sale. Do you think it’s possible we sign both him and Thiaw? 

Not a chance. Liverpool already got their finger, cock and balls in that pie.

Maybe we should make a play and force them to spend a large portion of their Isak kitty so it's game over?

Think it’s game over anyway. They’re not stumping up £150 mill. They low balled and hoped he’d do the rest forcing a sale me thinks.

That'd be sweet but I think we're softies. Have we got any previous for shithousing in the market? [emoji38]

Put a bid in forcing them to spend money to buy him this window(rather than get him for free), just for shits and giggles then.

I like how many narratives in the mainstream have gone from "Rejection United FC" to "smart signing by Newcastle" with this. I fully trust our scouting that we carefully studied every player we go for - including those who went elsewhere. It's just that lack of DoF to sell the project to the Bruno or Botman type of players.

No sales pitch in the world is going to make up the deficit of double the wages the likes of Chelsea and Liverpool can offer, sadly.

Assume we already asked and he turned us down tbh, that's why we went for Thiaw. 


Don’t think he’d have turned us down outright but I get the feeling he’d string us along until Liverpool or Chelsea come in. We might have got a whiff of that being the case so moved on quickly.

Similar to Schar but not and exact replacement by any means.  Thiaw with more passes surprisingly, and also more accurate with those passes. No suprise he's far better in the air than Schar as well.Screenshot_20250811-015251.thumb.png.ffd164ce90ad0118390ebeb99eba3ca9.pngScreenshot_20250811-015237.thumb.png.e7160add39c680d2369c83402b6127c3.png

But can he can he simultaneously stack it and score a worldie from the half way line against PSG? 😂

It’s a shame if not as Guehi can play both sides as can Thiaw and Botman even. 
 

Guehi Botman Thiaw and then Schar and Burn are extremely strong and would sort us out for 3-4 years. Burn can be Halls number two at left back also. Lascelles maybe can go at this point.

Burn should never play left back again like. If Hall and Tino weren't available, id rather Tripper went there.

If Isak is to go, wouldn’t mind the following to pad out the squad 

 

Ramsdale 
 

Guehi 40m

Thiaw

 

Paqueta 40m

Gallagher 30m

 

Elanga

 

Wissa

Jackson or Ramos or Samu 60m (I don’t mind any young prodigy that Howe can develop as long as high ceiling and world class potential) 

 

Overall we’d be much much stronger as a squad than having one extra superstar who doesn’t want to be here. 
 

The new or extra players are almost covered by the Isak money. Very doable. I’ve not included those that are already signed or almost signed as it appears we’ve got a budget for those outside of Isak.

I'd say yes but Guehi seems most unlikely given he seems to want Liverpool.

But I like the midfield reinforcement in your scenario. We would need the Isak money to fund that I suspect.

Lascelles can't go anywhere until he's snapped the Scab in half

As far as I know, the reporting last week about Guehi was true… we did go back in for him. I assume we were turned down sharpish which is why the Thiaw deal has happened quickly.

The cunt already sleeps in Liverpool pyjamas. The most pious, most righteous football club underhandedly tapping players up again? Who’d have thought it eh?

Think we wanted to come, but now that Liverpool is in for him things have changed.

 

 

I don't think he did tbh. I said even last year that he would end up at Liverpool and won't be much of a surprise when he does. 

 

Thank fuck we finally stopped daydreaming and got the Thiaw deal done.
