Yeah. With moving Reed I’d be pretty shocked if we didn’t bring a midfielder in. I think we might see one or two B team players come in too.
Saints have applied to host a test event as part of allowing crowds back in to stadiums ... presumably for the Tottenham home game. Edit: wrong thread, as you were
Was just thinking the same. I get why Bournemouth priced him so high, the cost of replacing him in their team, but there’s no way he justifies that fee for Newcastle.
He's got a long long long way to go to be mentioned in the same breath as our Claus, he's a club legend.
It was painful to watch Big Vester getting done for pace by Billy Sharp and then getting nutmegged from 20 yards for their goal against Sheff Utd in the final match.
Mind you, they bought a striker who had just returned from an unsuccessful loan in Austrian league for £40m :0
I wont shed a tear over this one, tbh. Very underwhelming in the main, which is frustrating as he has shown glimpses of absolute quality. But, with his contract up next summer it makes sense
Boufal wasn’t a complete failure here; he goes in the “That one goal makes it all worthwhile” category, along with Dani Osvaldo and Cuco Martina, for his solo effort vs West Brom.
Shame it didn't work out as he was very highly thought of when we signed him. Few million to spend and more off the wage bill would be handy, really need a CM.
Not sure. Djenepo? Think he was just surplus if he didn't make an impact last season. Just one of those things. I have a feeling Djenepo will be more effective.
