It is starting to concern me how many good players teams around us and those below us like Brighton, West Ham etc are signing. We probably need atelast 2 top players just to keep pace with last season cos everyone's got stronger except us
Dont forget jonny, it was these same games last season that tripped us up over n over again, we struggled against these teams that we believe we should be walking over.
Trust in the board is wearing thin. The face of the club has been removed and in its place are protracted, low ball offers for top targets and very slow progress. This summer is a crucial window. If they don’t kick on as expected, the momentum of the project is in serious danger of collapse! The star names we do have will all look for the exit!
Sick of hearing Premier League proven. Our best players weren't premier League proven Bruno, Isaac , Batman , Tonali. Only Gordon was and he was no where near the level until he'd worked with Eddie for half a season. Get Premier League proven out of it and get a world class player. Guess what it would probably be cheaper if outside of the Premier League
Fantastic window so far! Not paying over the odds, faith in this great squad, we only have worries about age and contracts running out next summer. Hope the board keep their hands in their pockets and never ever NEED to sell again a player we don't want to see leave. Osula will be a great signing for 2 reasons, he is hungry and under Howe will blossom, if he doesn't turn into what we need, he will turn a profit. Guehi is not a superstar, he would be a good addition, end of. This narrative that we HAVE to spend, have to make a 'marquee' is rotten. Good luck Mitchell, hold your nerve, ignore the clamour. It's bonkers that comments are made like 'a couple of signings will lift the mood'. Why do you think, Isak, Bruno and Gordon have not left????? Do you think their mood needs lifting??? It fucking will by the time the media's narrative of must buy or its shite takes hold. And then finally, "where do you think we will finish"?....4th.....wtf, 30mins ago the window was a failure, we haven't made the signings we need, how can you circle this???? HWTL!
This window is nowhere near what I expected. To think we got rid of two decent players and who we have brought in . This is Eddie’s big test this season . Massive for him
Eales and Mitchell need to deliver. If they don't improve the squad while ManU, Villa, WHam, Spurs have invested then it's stupid to expect Howe to finish 4th
If we get Guehi, and blow all are money, which I don’t think it will.. we still have loan options with obligations to buy in the summer next season just like we did with Lewis Hall
Andrew- the social media is full of Newcastle fans saying £60 is probably already too much and we should walk away. The market values have collapsed and like 40% lower than last summer.
Can’t see Sanusi getting many minutes on the left wing. Got Gordon and Barnes there, while joelinton and Isak can also play there if Howe wants to accommodate wilson and/or willock on occasion.
We cant afford for players to drop off, this Geuhi saga should,SHOULD make them up their game. If we dont sign any 1st teamers im happy with. As long as the Owners and Fans...ask for Eddies head...he is like us fans his hands are tied with regards of players getting over the line. So i ask everbody to put youre sensible heads on. Amanada told US ALLbe patient, WE WILL GET THERE!
Guehi doesn’t start over Schar. He’s a great player but without the Euros he’s not a £65 million player and it is way too much to pay with the financial restrictions we are under. We can get through this season and buy him for £50 million next summer.
Yes, it's frustrating for us all, i still think we will get him, i may have walked away when the third bid was knocked back, but more than happy if we get him, big steaks game isn't it, time to show your hand Paul Mitchell😉
For me Barnes never gets in front of Gordon, the left wing is Anthony's domain. Barnes has a way to go on consistency. He can score and play well one game, but as often if not more often have a poor game. His inconsistency is an issue. Never move Gordon to the right to accommodate Barnes
nah he doesn’t. Barnes is a much better finisher, probably the best finisher in the squad outside maybe Wilson. That aside - and goals are very important of course - Gordon is better in every aspect of his game.
