Ayatollah Hermione 13836 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I can’t see a timeline where he isn’t signing tbh. You don’t do this sort of shite on social media if there’s not something in the works; could have easily just kept quiet but he’s kicking about posting pictures of bridges. He knows the crack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe one or the other of them could play on the right..? I'm not convinced all this noise is leading to a transfer mind You’ll be sorry saying this kind of nonsense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His signing might point to a slight change in formation with him playing just ahead of Bruno and Joelinton in a 4-2-3-1. Or as part of a Brazilian midfield three, if we stick with 4-3-3 Fair enough, I don't know the guy at all and Wikipedia makes some mention of him having been a left winger at one stage, guess I just got stuck on that.

Also, the jacket came in handy as it was pissing down when we went for drinks after the match - so who’s laughing now, eh??? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21846 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Didn’t bother in the end. The offer of a few vodka and diet cokes with UM in the Labour club was irresistible. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows the crack That’s my feeling on it as well. I’ve seen nowt like it before, I get they’re mates but the blokes went to about 4 of our matches and has made two trips over aside from those games . Meanwhile Bruno hasn’t went to a single Lyon game or went back to Lyon at all I don’t think (I read somewhere he flew right to Newcastle from Brazil to sign and had his stuff packed and shipped for him from Lyon. It genuinely feels like he’s been getting used to the area, looking at where to live etc, I’d be really surprised if there was nowt in it besides him visiting Bruno. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13836 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I see Villa are sniffing around the same players as us again. I think they’re about to get a hard dose of reality 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21846 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 gamesmanship designed to avoid paying over the odds for summer targets, or was the wine and chicken man right all along? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44491 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Bit of both, I think. They'll not want to go and spend £300m in the summer anyway, but managing selling club expectations will also be a factor. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13836 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I’m very much in the mindset of kicking back and enjoying the ride, seeing these players come in and watching the club grow but they can fuck right off with Bamford 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5186 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 It's an interesting one because if we don't spend ambitiously we'll be less able to sell the vision of a 'project' to these players at the level we need to bring in - equally though I really don't think we are going to do a Man City here despite what the world seems to think. If we can get Targett, Nunez (or similar), Paqueta and a centre back, then I think tbh we've probably achieved all we need to for this window. £150m maybe if we're clever? If we go for a keeper maybe more like £200m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 19976 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I still think we will sign 5-6 players this summer. We don't want to sign too many and disrupt the balance of the dressing room and I think a lot of this is probably that. We have players we need to shift on also. Cannie wait! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6682 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I think 5-6 is probably on the high side. I'm thinking 4-5 at most. I expect some will be retained who a lot might expect them to be released too. This is definitely a gradual project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 19976 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 so +/- 1 each way for us 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
