Rumours that Shelvey, Lascelles, Hayden, Clarke, Ritchie, Gayle, Kraft, Darlow, Fraser, Murphy, Joelinton are all expected to sign for the newly formed Ryyadh Rangers for £150m a pop.
Free transfer. Dembele for £245k a week. I wad. https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2021/10/21/newcastle-united-ousmane-dembele-transfer-barcelona/
It’s actually not as unrealistic as you think. He’s a free transfer and the wages balance that fact. Over 4 years would still cost us less than Joelinton has. But would he want to come?
It's clear to me that we need both a highly experienced central defender and central midfielder. One of those should be made captain. I like Lascelles, but he simply isn't good enough. Rafa had made us very difficult to break down and Bruce's ineptitude has frittered that away. That, above all else, is what we need to address in order to evade relegation.
