Given the speed at which we’ve moved to ‘secure’ Ait-Nouri, Cherki, and Reijnders, then one would have thought if Vanderson were the first choice for right-back, then there would have been news on that front by now. My reading of the situation is that the remaining signings will more likely be ‘homegrown’ and come from within England, but that the negotiations could be protracted and depend on outgoings as well. Just a hunch.Just get Vanderson in!

It may yet happen, but my sense is that they’ll seek to explore other avenues first and then decide. It might also be that we use the CWC to see if Nunes is up to the immediate challenge; sterner tests lie beyond the group stage, which should give a clearer indication of his (room for) improvement. Far from ideal, granted, but until players start exiting stage left, we just won’t know.Possibly true mate but there surely has to be another way around the homegrown situation? Vanderson in the right and Ait Nouri on the left would be SO good!
Can't bring another non-HG untill we start letting some go, we're already over our allowable limit as is and nobody non-HG is that close to leavingJust get Vanderson in!

Eddie, Ortega
Dias, Gvardiol, Akanji, Khusanov, Nunes, Ait Nouri
Rodri, Reijnders, Bernardo, Gundogan, Kovacic, Nico
Haaland, Marmoush, Doku, Savinho, Cherki
That's 19 of 17 unless ive missed someone (Reis/Echeverri are U21 and not gonna moan if they miss out on Champions League registry)
Need to sell 3 non-HG players before we can bring in someone like Vanderson, and the keepers are excluded in those 3 as any keeper departure will immediately need replacing and 90% chance that be a foreign players as English keepers that are available are pretty poor
So 3 of the 16 outfield players need selling, seems unlikely to happen for a few weeks
There must be 3/4 the club knows are likely to go, maybe not even including the keepers.We know this and more importantly so do the club? Dont matter the quota now, only when the final registration has to be done?
Silva, Gundo, Kova, McAtee, Phillips, Nunes and Ederson all with tentative links to various club so farThere must be 3/4 the club knows are likely to go, maybe not even including the keepers.
Fuck knows who though, Bernardo isn’t being linked anywhere or Gungodan, or Kovacic.
Nunes I think is the only one with any links away?

The quota matters now,offers dont always materialise and then what, flogging for cheap or loans that don't help anythingWe know this and more importantly so do the club? Dont matter the quota now, only when the final registration has to be done?
28 is average for the PL according to transfer market….at least that is how it looks now. It will be interesting to see if that goes up or down when the window shuts on 1st September. I guess it will be a bit lower.The quota matters now,offers dont always materialise and then what, flogging for cheap or loans that don't help anything
Pep wants a small squad as well, having 25 me is too much let alone 29/30
Think Nunes will be our right back next year. Rico, Stones, Akanji as back up. Only Livramento being available would alter this and I can’t see that happening.Nunes played the equivalent of 18 full premier league games and got 8 goals/assists, I think more of the games have been at full back, decent return that
I genuinely don’t get the fuss about Livramento. Played the equivalent of 32 premier league games in a top 4 attacking side last season, no goals and 2 assist is a shocking attacking contribution. I’d be wanting a lot more attacking output than that for north of £80m.Think Nunes will be our right back next year. Rico, Stones, Akanji as back up.

Who? Never heard of him.Just get Vanderson in!
He is more of a walker than an ait Nouri if you excuse the lazy comparison.I genuinely don’t get the fuss about Livramento.

£80m and no goals and one assist, not even Newcastle first choice was he the start of the season? Either way he was overshadowed by Lewis Hall for meHe is more of a walker than an ait Nouri if you excuse the lazy comparison.
I’m assuming ait Nouri will offer the width with marmoush going inside to support haaland and livramento will do the walker role of shutting down the right hand side that he did for so many years giving us almost a back 3 type shape
Well you only have to read Newcastle fan forums to see they rate him as their best and a complete shut down full back. He can play both left and right.£80m and no goals and one assist, not even Newcastle first choice was he the start of the season? Either way he was overshadowed by Lewis Hall for me
Who? Never heard of him.
Just noticed that is the 1001st time you have mentioned him.Plays for Monaco mate and now Brazilian international
