Pope
Trippier
RCB
Botman
Target
Tonali
Bruno
LCM
RW
Gordon
Isak

New Newcastle XI inside 3 windows... In that we already had 4 CM's and 3 Wingers you can forgive the club for the LCM and RW position being low priority on the list - genuinely expect RCB to be filled shortly.
Ermmm Did you forget Big Joe?

Big Joe --- Bruno --- Tonali

Also, Targett? Need a new LB IMO.
 
Great article and shows exactly the players we want and need. The effort of Longstaff with the ability of Bruno.

Almiron was headless again in the last third of the season and whilst Murphy got to another level, he's never going to be elite. Without Miggy's unusual purple patch early on, we'd not have finished 4th - but the fact it was unusual should cause Howe concern. I'd be really keen to get someone of UCL quality in on the right.

Schar has great ability, but makes a mistake every game, sometimes more than one. Lascelles as backup is far too big a drop off.

Targett looked awful when he came back. Burn is a great lad, but he's been punching and again mistakes were creeping in. No fault of his commitment, but there must be a better option in the World than these two.
 
Simply put, yeah, it's terrible if we don't sign anyone! It'd be right up there with the Ashley/Anita Summer in terms of a massive missed opportunity.

However, we've (almost) signed one of the finest midfielders in the World. Isak/Gordon have another year under their belt. And I firmly believe we'll just have days where a really decent player is linked at 9am and signed by 10am. By all accounts, we liked Szoboszlai but were never interested in bidding. I suspect we're still after a right winger, but that depends on what Howe sees in our current backup, Murphy.

We will almost certainly need a left back and the centre back option will entirely depend on who's available. I don't even know if the formation will evolve, there were hints of Man City-esque changes towards the latter part of the season.
Is Anita Summer, Donna’s daughter? Did Ashley ditch her or something?
 
Tonali should prove to be an excellent signing, as long as he settles and adapts to the league well. This feels like a very good start to the window. It'll be interesting to see what positions we strengthen next.
 
Signing Chiesa would seem exciting on the surface, but it would be quite high risk I think. Hasn't he been a bit off it, struggling with form, fitness and many smaller injuries since returning from his ACL injury?
On the plus side he’sa ****ing awesome player. Imagine ASM but with actual end product and consistently good
