Taylor has be be a big NO. He is injury prone and no better than what we have.

Norwood.....really???? Is this our aspirations?? I am not sure of our plans for him whether it be cover or not, but at 25 he has probably become all of the footballer that he can and he ain't exactly setting the world alight, let alone the championship. He would struggle to be on the bench in my opinion, and probably in Bruce's too.
Yeah there is not many centre mids that can improve at a higher level once they get into their later years...

*cough* Ian Ashbee *cough*

Drinkwater proved himself after Man U so who knows , maybe this Norwood can. We do well with these ex-Man U lads, look at Chester and Brady for starters- Phelan will know if Norwood is up to it. Powell was showing a few glimpses of potential too, not sure what's happening with him now
 
I'd rather have Bruce, I'm not even sure Taylor was a regular for the Geordies. The fact they've released him and they've been relegated to me means they don't rate him either

Maybe you're right. I'd say Taylor was better than Bruce though.

Do you think we should take a punt on Powell or not? He looked to have something about him the bit I saw. Surely we have to be realistic with some of our signings we aren't going to get a load of superstars
 
our midfield is well overrated by our fans

Let's go with diame , huddlestone, Livermore and meyler relegation written all over it

We need to be ambitious and majorly improve especially with the prem cash, clubs around us also yang to survive will be majorly upgrading their squads but yes huddlestone is good enough let's stick with him
 
Diame is a very good mid in the PL, he was brilliant pre-injury for us. Livermore without the mental issues he had last season will also be tremendous. Huddlestone and Meyler are decent depth.

Not sure on that one sterling, think he made 7 appearances this season in a team that was hopeless. We need a decent quick centre back. I'm a bit worried about Dawson tbh, foresteri (I know that's spelt wrong) left him for dead in the final then he made a mistake that Davies had to come across and make a tackle
