Ugh 2 days left hah

My phone will be dead before I get home from work.

Berge is/was a long term target for the club.(Fulham deep into talks, Brighton also interested if there drama gets sorted)

Not sure if he's a 6 bit more of an all around midfielder? Big, Fit, mobile and a tidy passer from what I hear.

Also Maddison popping up again.

The Swedish rambler did an excellent break down of our spending.

Before the Gorden deal we can do roughly 3.5 Isak in the summer of 23 before FFP comes knocking.

That's roughly 230million. It has been stated previously that transfer fees are no problem it's our bloated squad and wages that's a stumbling block.

As soon as Chris Wood was off the books we moved hard.


Edit: can't loan Berge.

Ok 3 then, point still stands, I think it's a little early to make claims of a long term transfer strategy. Gordon was definitely bought at an inflated price too!

Well forest paid for him hah we where quoted 60 was it at the start!

It’s not just that. We walked away from multiple deals that we have seen as extremely inflated but still have an interest in. Diaby and Madders off the top of my head. Both deals probably would have got done if we had met the asking price.

The club has also been very vocal on their transfer policy.

You didn't pick Gordon up for a comfortable price. No one else wanted him. Chelsea were prepared to pay a mental price, you were slightly less mental for a player that scored 3 goals. You won a bidding war against no one. Don't get me wrong Newcastle are doing superb but there's fewer more inflated prices than Gordon to Newcastle. Richarlison was expensive but at least he was doing it in a poor team and in the national side.

A price we were comfortable in paying. There’s a difference.

Forest was throwing money at us in the Window we just past it onto Everton with a few bob on top.

We are prepared to take a risk and slightly cheaper younger players like Botman/Gordon etc

There’s a player under that Clair Balding wig somewhere.

If Howe can’t get it out then I very much doubt anyone can.

I like what I’ve seen so far in small glimpses.

Defensive spitting passes. Ability on the ball.

It’s clear he’s not fit. Was completely gassed in the first half against Southampton in which he should have scored.

At the end of the day if he’s fails at Newcastle he’s still young that we could recoup a good bit of the transfer fee.

Hope none of these rumours are true, I don't know what CL qualification will do to our spending budget and how it will change our wage structure, but there are rumours circulating about Neymar and Ronaldo. Can usually take them with a.linch of salt though.

I don't think Eddie wants any big egos from older established players near the squad. I'm also hearing that ASM will be sold this summer. Some talent will be available from the teams relegated, wouldn't be surprised to see us compete for the signature of JWP.

Howe has shot this down.
