DiabyKungFu Is there any particular reason why people seem to be allergic to talking about Sverre Nypan when discussing this summer's transfer window? I don't really know how good he is, but it seems like we're probably going to sign him and (if we sign him) he'll probably have a role to play in the team.
Good shout actually, like you don't know much about him but interesting to know if he can have an immediate impact on the first team or needs to be eased in.
Panda Zubimendi, a CF and a LW is the bare minimum. If they can't manage that we may as well not bother tuning in next season.
That is bare minimum, we probably need another 2/3 players on top of that. We have a big summer window ahead of us. I don't know too much about the new Director of football we just signed but good thing we've got him now because he has an action packed summer ahead!
There’s also very few who make runs behind. You notice it live mainly.
Burnwinter You in the subscriber comments: what that buffoon @Burnwinter said on his show this week was a mere tautology!
I'd listen to your "Fuck Your Mum" podcast tbh.
Will be good to get him in. Raya doesn’t play like Lehman or Cech. He covers a lot of ground and makes a lot of passes. A rest here and there will be helpful if we are to preserve him.
United sniffing around him now as well
If we need two top class players for every position, that should include the goalkeeper.
Qwiss could see it if the idea is to be backup here vs starter there. A backup GK doesn't play much.
Couldn't give a shit where that goalie ends up and saving a penalty certainly doesn't make him a colossus.
Even if we don't need him, it's a shame that we didn't get Garcia last summer. Our GK coach was ahead of the curve in identifying him, and at the very least it was a significant arbitrage opportunity.
I would like to hear a little more about the club prioritizing a left winger. We cannot have Martinelli and Trossard starting games next year, as much as I appreciate both players to an extent. Forwards win trophies, particularly wingers these days. An LW is right footed, it should be easier to find that player than a RW. Instead it's our weakest link in the starting XI.
CPM Our GK coach was ahead of the curve in identifying him, and at the very least it was a significant arbitrage opportunity.
Dunno how much arbitrage opportunity there was in buying a goalkeeper with 1 season in the first team for €30m last season just to be a bench warmer behind Raya. We saw with Ramsdale that a year on the bench will really drive your price down.
Can't believe how bad Ramsdale is now. Is he still our player or did we sell?
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert pretty sure we sold him
Not much there but he is very reliable when it comes to Arsenal. As it has been discussed previously comes down to whether Newcastle finish in CL places or not. Top 5 get CL football this season. Looks like we are in a good position to move on Sesko as well if needed, need to make sure we secure a striker as early as possible because they are on short supply and will be loads of interest.
Isak is undeniably a brilliant player but I must admit I have some reservations about spending a mega fee. Firstly it will have a massive impact on other signings and secondly he is injury prone.
JazzG we have a top top team now. To go the extra mile, especially in attack, you need to pay up. Just remember recent deals for top attackers
