useless Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I've just looked on the tranfer thread on a newcastle forum, and they're acting as if the £17m rumoured fee for Wood is crazy money, that seems relatively cheap to me, would have expected Burnley to want more than that at the best of times, but even more so if Newcastle are the buyers.

I hope Burnley mess them about the entire window and then decline their offer. Why would they sell to their relegation rivals especially with Cornet at Afcon?

useless Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 If Burnley sell I can only imagine they think they will be better off with the money the money and maybe spending that on a replacement, than Wood himself, he has only scored three goals this season.

I assume later in the window some will happen…it’s all a bit low key given the owners and their issue about being in a relegation fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I never expected any huge names through the door, given the manager in charge and Nick Hammond as the temporary DoF , the proven British or proven premier league talent “the type that are suited for a dog fight” would be the approach, only problem is these guys are in relegation dog fights each year for a reason. And as you say the mercenaries will probably lose interest after losing a few games similar to Lesscott and co when we went down: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Newcastle did the same thing in championship that we did aswell trying to sign the big names i.e. Ritchie, Hanley, Murphy, Gayle. Signing Chris Wood is to me a sign that they are preparing for potential relegation and signing wood is someone who will stick around in the championship and probably a striker who will do well down there. i've been surprised at how passive they have been so far aswell, surely they know the infrastructure of the club needs sorting first as that is key.

Midfielder Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 And there's another one missed Eddie! As Digne nears, ouch, what it must feel like to be a Geordie right now. They are going to end up hating us more than Blues. Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I think their relegation fate may hinge quite significantly on who they manage to sign to replace Wilson. Just looking at the kind of names they’re being linked with and I’m not sure any are of the obvious level of quality needed to fire them to the wins they require, though you can never be sure of how things pan out of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
