We need to be signing young players who's career trajectory is on the way up rather then down. It's about time we learned that lesson after the last few years. Didn't say I'd do it that way, or indeed do I think we will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a non-poaching agreement but if another club agrees a fee, Stoke are allowed to match it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we sign this guy for a fee on a contract then it will be absolute stupidity on our behalf imo.

Cos the club have a group of 6 y.o playing twister to sort out who we buy and who we don't. Hogan was bought in that short era where we bought the 27 most expensive strikers in the league and then settled on a formation with 1 up top..... 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Regarding older players. The odd player in his late 20s early 30s isn’t a problem if they are in good shape. The problem is when you’ve got a whole team of them!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Not the type of targets I was hoping we'd be after (J.J aside) when we got new owners, and then a new manager. Seem more like a continuation of the failed strategy we've had for the last couple of years. Hope we can spring something unexpected rather than Mings, Fuchs, Austin, that Newcastle fringe guy... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's something like 5-6th choice in a poor Newcastle side. Only playing now cause they have lots of injuries. Sure he'd be a solid Championship player, but he wont elevate us above that IMO.

We should probably wait until we see who we actually get, rather than coming to a premature opinion based on newspaper/twitter rumours. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is homesick also so you can't really play your best when you are missing home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 He sounds like a baby. Putting a transfer request in because he misses home. It’s not like he living on the other side of the world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
