Yeah would be a good permanent signing from what weve seen so far, but will certainly need stiffer competition for places.
think we need another left back even with Targett, for cover or even to push him for a place, depth needed in every area. Dummett's time is surely coming to an end. Dubs is decent for now but he won't be when it comes to trying to break into the top 4, not as number 1 anyway. Trippier with Manq as back up next season is decent enough. A top upcoming CB like Botman to play with Schar, and Burn can fight to keep his shirt next season, i suppose Lascelles will have to do as emergency back up, but i would prefer someone else. Centre mid is looking good but i think i'd like to add another, probably another in the attacking sense. A winger that can play on either side to add competition to ASM and Fraser, a better back up than Murphy basically. A top quality statement signing striker with Wilson and a young up and comer as back up, Wood as emergency 4th choice. It just comes down to how much we can do in each transfer window. And can we attract champs league quality players when we aren't in it yet, maybe the next tier of player down for now. I don't want to get ahead of myself (well i do) but i don't see much reason why we can't challenge for top 6 next seaon, West Ham are and they aren't that good really. But top half and a proper go at the cups would be acceptable. I'm ****ing loving it anyway. Saturday was class, everyone singing coming out of the stadium, in the streets and at the train station, Newcastle is bouncing.
You picky bastard. I'll have you know 6 short months ago you would have shot your plum juice across a room to have him. Geez it's true what they say. Money really does change some people.
Get used to it. The press have finally realised we actually have money to spend and looking more hopeful of staying up. So they are going to start linking us to every player going, like they do with Manure & Chelski
lol you don’t know me well enough as no I wouldn’t want Bramble mk2. This has nothing to do with money. He’s an upgrade on Lascelles, whoopedy do da
just because there is a player in the next category up from the **** (not Burn) e we have is not an excuse to go spunk £200k a week on them. Why go from straw to sticks when we can get bricks to stop the wolf? 6 months ago everyone was clamouring for certain Midfielders all now at Everton. Or Ramsey now at Rangers. A slight upgrade on **** face is not suffice.
He’s average. No brain. Looks like a mistake waiting to happen. Better than Lascelles? Yes Better than Clark? Yes Better than Fede? Yes Better than Schar? Hmmm Better than Burn? No He would become a very expensive back up player. Botman? Yes Kouibally? Yes Carlos? Yes Appears to me we’re going down the Manchester United route of transfers. Were we lucky? Given we were linked to Digne, Alli, VdB etc looks to me like we’re looking at mercenaries. That was Freddy Shepherd.
