Transfers, 2024-25 season

[Kid Dynamite 7835]

If you believe the article it insinuates that Maddison may be looking elsewhere, so we plan on playing Bruno further forward and using McTominay in front of the back 4. 
 

Underwhelming if true. We are crying out for someone new to bring creativity in midfield 

[sammynb 3937]

Edwards has proven time and time again he doesn't know shite.

Philip Billing would be a better shout than McTominay if we are looking at squad players. Forgetting cost, etc, if Man U want sell to us, it's only because they think he's not good enough and if he's not good enough for those cunts, he certainly isn't good enough for NUFC.

Yes, the days of taking an over priced Man Utd cast off should be gone.  This belongs to the Brucey era which Edwards is still stuck in

Two now, you’ve followed him haven't you?  

[The Fish 11350]

There are better defensive midfielders than McTominay, cheaper too. 

 

We could get Milinkovic Savic for c£35m, how much would Scotty Boy cost? £50m? More? I know Savic is a couple of years older, but the difference in quality is stark.

How do you figure 35 mil pounds for Savic? Transfermarkt has him at 52 mil 

 

I know Transfermarkt doesnt mean anything at end the of the day and clubs do what they want, but its usually gets it pretty close;

 

Isak 35 Mil - Brought in for 60 Mil

Bruno 26 Mil - Brought in for 37 Mil

Botman 26 Mil - Brought in for 32 Mil

Targett 15 Mil - Brought in for 15.25 Mil

Headless Chook 35 Mil (god knows why) - Brought in for 40 Mil (dearie me)

 

outliers;

Burns 3 Mil - Brought in for 13 Mil (we were desperate that window )

Pope 13 Mil - brought in for 10 Mil (Burnley got relegated)

Wood 6 Mil - Brought in for 26 Mil (We were desperate)

Expand  

Only has a year left on his contract, has said he wants to leave, rumours have him around £35m.

I thought you loved Maxi.

[Diego21 2192]

Last days, Diario AS in Spain is selling we are very close to Gabri Veiga (35M release clause).

 

But they say too that the player prefer Real Madrid to stay in Spain.

what did you make asm's performance on friday night?

i noticed truefaith gave him a rating of 3 (i know, alex hurst's a cunt) which i thought was generous to be honest. we offered precisely fuck all down the left side of the pitch before he was hauled at half time. i appreciate howe has subsequently said he was carrying a slight thigh strain although that does beg the question why he started him in the first place, unless of course he's being diplomatic?

oh to see the lesser spotted maxi of december 27th 2021 again, perhaps he's been saving himself for another home game against the mancs?

 

ps.... love the perseverance with the headless chook!

Was his poorest game for a while but he did make the run down the right and set Willock up for the assist.

Expand  

He really is a very amazing player and what can be said about him is based on very little experience.

Let me explain: the boy is an unknown player who has exploded this year at Celta de Vigo. He is only 20 years old and he made his debut two seasons ago, but in the last two seasons he has barely added 200-300 minutes.

This year, on the other hand, he is breaking it as an Attacking Medfield. He would say that the ideal position for him is where Willock is playing today. Also, I think they are players who can be similar in style.

Veiga is undoubtedly the revelation player this season in the Spanish League. I am sure that if he was playing for Real Madrid or Barcelona he would already be called up with the senior team of Spain.

He is a very physical player, but also very technical. He arrives very well from behind, breaking the line, but he also has a very good shot from distance.

[Diego21 2192]

Something interesting about Veiga is that although his position is attacking midfielder, this season he has played as a defensive pivot, but also as a winger and even in a couple of games as a center forward.

And everywhere he has played well.

I particularly dislike ‘preparing to make a bid’. Do or not do, there is no preparing.

Someone who can take a shot on from distance is much needed. I think Willock and Bruno have it in them but just aren't confident shooting from distance right now. 

 

Considering he's relatively raw and if in the same mould as Willock, price would be the main factor we'd be in for him over someone like Maddison who has consistenly proven he can unlock defences in this league. 

 

Hopefully we can get both:
