    I think you can have a bit of a multifaceted opinion.

    I agree with DPP, Max is a better player with the ball than Fraser, overall he's a better footballer.

    But Fraser is better at putting away his chances.

    I was happy with Almirons positioning verses Forest, but he needs to be dropped for Fraser, who would have scored one of those chances.

    Almirons misses were laughable.

    Nope. I'm just saying that being 'right' (in your own mind) doesn't neccessarily mean the other person is wrong. So to focus on always 'being right' rather than hearing out other views is (in my mind) a bit blinkered. That's all. :emoticon-0148-yes::emoticon-0109-kiss:

    If you had to pick an attacking midfielder you'd lose to injury right now who would it be?

    I agree on almiron he's got alot about him, but his end product is nowhere near good enough for this league.

    Just watching Everton and seriously im pleased nufcs owners won't buy unless it's good value and will improve the squad.

    Really if they sign no more this window it's probably because it's the right thing to do.

    Anyone who thinks we should be content with our transfer business just needs to take a look at our bench today!

    Or Newcastle already know they need to buy and are actively trying to do so.

    Not looking forward to facing City. I felt if we could’ve given Brighton a match we might’ve had confidence, but we’re going to get our arsed handed to us.

    Brighton away is a tough game. It's more about style. Brighton basically played 3-6-1 against our 3 man midfield

    What we clearly lack is another attacking option. Our defence is mostly solid, we're missing one more quality player to attack with.

    I hate to say it but Almiron, despite his work rate, wont provide many goals or assists ever. He's a work horse at this level, and decent at helping the midfield and defence and is ok decent running with the ball, but in the final third is arse falls out.

    But at least Almiron gets there. More coaching and final product will come. ASM does nothing.

    I would 100% sell ASM at this point ahead of Almiron. Brighton have no flashy stars yet their work and tactics put us to shame. Get £40m for ASM if you can and get Diaby in for £50m.

    When max and williock went off we got worse today . Wouldn't it be nice to have two better subs or have max and willock as subs?

    Just buy a couple of good players no need to sell anyone half decent

    You said “just add”. In order to add we’ll need to subtract
