General transfer rumours

[Sleeping_Easy]

Pope
Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn
Maddison, Bruno, Ward-Prowse/Joelinton
Almiron, Isak, Barnes/Saint-Maximin

It’s not bad but think they could do with a more natural left back.

Maddison and Barnes would be excellent signings. Not convinced the others would add anything other than greater squad depth though.

Rumour is that they're signing Tierney. He'd be a decent signing for them. They're also trying to hijack uniteds deal for Kim Min-Jae.

Pope
Trippier, Kim Min-Jae, Botman, Tierney
Maddison, Bruno, Ward-Prowse
Almiron, Isak, Barnes

with players like Lavia, Adams, Wilson, Saint-Maximin on the bench looks like a pretty good squad

What an incredible window this would be for Newcastle -

Steady recruitment, reminds me of our window when DeJong, Bellamy, Given and Barry before them took us to the next level

 

[Keeper!]

Are any of them better than what they already have? Not convinced. They “only” need 3 big improvement players that move current players to the bench and they are good to go
CM for longstaff
Winger for almiron/murphy
CB/LB for burn

They need to build the quality and quantity of the squad for the CL campaign, if they can maintain top 4 again next season and qualify for the knockout stages of CL they will have truly arrived.

 

[Georgian Maestro]

It's hardly Silva, Toure, Kolorov, Boateng and Milner.

I think that's a very good XI that. It's not going to challenge us, but they are starting on that path to becoming top 4 regulars. They look like a 'team' as well rather than a bunch of players thrown together.

Burn is a funny one - he doesn't look like a natural left back at all. However, he's from Blyth which is a few miles from Newcastle and he's a big lad and if you get Trippier putting the ball in, he's going to occupy a couple of defenders.

If I was a Geordie, I'd be a bit excited for next season.

Understand Arsenal will lodge a new bid for Moises Caicedo, similar to the £75m package rejected in January. #AFC

Brighton’s stance has changed since the winter. They were 100% no sale but are now open to negotiations. #BHAFC

if newcastle gets all of their targets (which i doubt) watch out.

Watch out anyway, they will be a major rival in the coming seasons, our biggest in my opinion.

Yeah but is it a UCL squad. I reckon that team gets grouped

Saudi side Al-Ahli interest in Riyad Mahrez, confirmed and concrete as they want to sign Algerian star - but Manchester City have not been approached yet at this stage.

#MCFC Man City would require a consistent fee for Mahrez, no chance to let him leave for free.
