Ghandis Flip-Flop Posted August 27, 2025 Share Posted August 27, 2025 People harping on about Guessand realise he's more of a wide forward than striker right? I’m not sure adding another Barnes or Gordon type player is going to sort out our current predicament Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a real shortage of quality strikers these days, especially ones easily attainable I think Goncalo Ramos would be decent, PSG are rumoured to be willing to sell at reasonable price (I heard of figures like 50-60M), salary is acceptable, very good finishing, good work rate. Mikautadze from Lyon is another that I like, his style is a bit similar to the likes of Isak and Ekitike, did quite well in Euro 2024, transfer fee is likely to be low given Lyon's financial problems.

Defo worth a shot for us to bid for Ramos. Domestically Mateta Bowen Watkins but couldn't see us getting any this late, we will be quoted extortionate figures similar to the two we already chasing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaurentRobert Posted August 27, 2025 Share Posted August 27, 2025 I do think he's a limited striker but I do feel that he'll bang in enough goals given the service he'd get from our great wingers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted August 27, 2025 Share Posted August 27, 2025 (edited) https://inews.co.uk/sport/football/newcastle-alexander-isak-transfer-liverpool-3882116?ito=link_share_article-top Quote There have been suggestions that Newcastle might return to some of their previous targets, with Chelsea now open to a loan move for Nicolas Jackson. A loan move I could stomach provided there is no obligation to buy - certainly much more preferable to spending £60+ on Larsen.

I might be wrong but I’m sure I read that I'm completely against that. Im completely against selling him to Liverpool now. If I was in charge he's staying this season. If he doesn't play, thats his career wrecked and well sue him for the loss in transfer fee. It's fundamentally breach of contract. As soon as the window is shut and he is here, he will realise he has no power and never did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bollocks, well sign a striker this window and it might not be one of them. If we can't sign them we will sign someone as we'll lose out on CL definately if we don't. Its not just the money for being in the CL its the increased commercial revenue year on year for being successful. That's why even if we spent 80M on Strand-Larsen for example but we stayed in the CL and do so over the coming years it's worth hundreds of millions in increased commercial revenue.
