    Ok Well you're entitled to your prediction mate.

    I think it'll be much like January in terms of the level they bring in.

    If you're right great

    All I will say and have done is that I was completely wrong in January and the regime and Howe have exceeded my expectations and some.

    I don’t mind admitting that and as a result I trust them to progress the club.

    At the time (January) we where in dire straights and as a nufc I was at my wits end because of Ashley. Any transition takes time.

    Rehab takes time.

    I think that is what he is saying. We won’t be signing worldies but very good players.

    No he's not in reeks of purchasing The fee involved will be far higgter Paqueta is a no10 so more goals and that equals more pounds, plus he's got many more caps for brasil.

    He's going to get better options

    It’s 40m plus add ons mate. That’s what I’ve been told.

    I was also told they wanted ASM?

    Everyone gets it wrong mate It's just just meant to be light hearted banter.

    Actually my entire point is that no position is a position of certainty and im only making my prediction based on the evidence presented.

    They've told us essentially

    I said Howe prefers solid prem proven players and we'll sign maybe a lodi and Ekiteke also as the more exciting ones.

    I don't understand why me saying that was so bad I'd be delighted with that.

    Not bad at all mate: I’m on the same page completely. I want progress and slow maintainable growth. I want to see youth progress and I want to give them the chance to make mistakes.

    Given where we are now compared to 6 months ago we have taken a giant leap for geordie kind.

    I also think people have completely lost the value of money. 80 million would get us 4 maybe 5 players on the The level of Wilson trips max Joelinton for example.

    It's really more about what they but not how much money is available or spent and there is value in the market post covid.

    Even 2-3 good players improves the squad now.

    Exactly and let's not forget since Xmas nufc was 3rd best.


    4 to 5 more sensible buys and nufc would have the foundations to start adding more specific types on kry areas

    The reason he will leave Lyon is because of a fall out with the manager who kept trying to play him as a false 9 as he believes he needs played deeper in a central midfield role but I'd be saying yeah he'a a more attacking central midfielder. I would also state that as good as he's been at Lyon he stunk the place out at Milan.

    Our main priority has to be a new first choice forward. Wilson is mint when fit but is as brittle as a Dorito.

    I've not seen the media argue their own story's on how to purchase the alleged targets with a £60m budget.

    They'll have multiple targets, but won't get all of them.

    The report was also saying they'd be selling players to increase the money available.

    I have a feeling it's attention he seeks rather financial gain
