Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[RomanReigns]

remember when we signed ashley williams and thought he was going to be our saviour

 

[Tel001]

Some quotes in the echo saying we needed three players striker, midfielder and defender.

Maybe he is referring to replacing baines.... unfortunatley that means he's happy with jags, Keane, Williams

 

[carolinablue232]

Agreed, i tihink he would personally look at a move to us as a sideways step also.
Im not saying it is, i just think that is how Lascelles would portray us.

He plays infront of 55k every week for a 1 city club, he is captain of that club, add to that no european football to offer him, a poor season, and our manager constantly reminding everyone we should be grateful for 8th and lucky to of fought off relegation.

Really wouldnt see the attraction for him

Money. Supposedly only on 15k/week with his current deal. We’d be able to offer way more than Newcastle would with their current pay structure.

So that’s Bolasie on the wing for another year. My word get him out of the club.

 

[Jayhow15]

When did left backs stop being defenders.

Cuco Martina. Here endeth the lesson

Lookman. Onyekuru.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Id take Mawson or Lascelles, both very solid young defenders with leadership quality and goal threat.

I think we should raid Celtic for Tierney and Dembele and get Doucouré. Would set us back about £100 million but would instantly improve the squad.

 

[Nymzee]

stupid that pennington deal, unless it's to get a bigger fee, he surely has no future here, he's never seemed close to PL quality for me, but would we even get that much money for him if we sold him?

It makes more sense when you break it down. Let’s assume no new signings next summer; hypothetically it could look like this:

1st choice: RFM
1st choice: Keane
Reserve: Holgate
Reserve: Jags
Reserve: Williams

Now that above absolutely rinses us in wages. So why not keep a player we already own (Penno) costing us nothing, thus allowing us to bin off the expensive players we’ll hopefully never see:

1st choice: RFM
1st choice: Keane
Reserve: Holgate
Reserve: Penno
Reserve: ??????

It’s saving us a lot of wages and saving us from going out and spending £££ on a back-up CB.

That’s how I see it anyway.

Doucoure would be awesome. The Celtic players are expensive and not that great. Pass.

If we are going to celtic, ntcham should be first on our list

Mori & Keane would be a disaster. We need a top class CB this summer.
Interesting if Silva gets the job, I’m sure he played 3 CB’s at Watford last season.

this thauvin player seems to score quite a few goals for marseille, i know he was a dud at newcastle but they were crap and salah was a dud at chelsea.

Looked totally unsuited to the Prem. No from me.

Dembele is a pipedream, will never make it in the Prem.
