25th April is going to be a tasty affair. :lol:

Watch some of the radgie cunts get on the pitch to try and get to him. And THEN watch Schar protect him.

I hope he scores a hat trick to make their relegation a mathematical certainty.

IMO I don't see us getting anyone in.  I can't see Howe and his team being rushed into getting the wrong player. I admire that.

Not sure how much say Eddie Howe would have in a deadline day deal. 

 

Without much evidence I'm fairly confident there'll be a list of targets that Howe has worked with Ashworth and Nickson to produce. If one of those players is available they wouldn't need to involve Eddie in the haggling, it'll just be a quick "Eddie, we can get X, shall we go ahead?" then they go off and sort it all out.

We’re definitely in the market for a midfielder on loan. Howe said as much yesterday. It would be irresponsible not to replace Shelvey. We’re only a couple of injuries away from a threadbare midfield.

Agreed. I imagine he'll be involved in internal discussions but Ashworth and, principally, Nickson who will be doing the hard graft. 

 

The All or Nothing: Arsenal series on Amazon Prime touched on the level of involvement the head coach has on transfer dealings when the were dealing with Aubameyang's exit. Edu drove it and just called Arteta in for a go/no-go decision. I reckon it'll be a similar thing at NUFC.

Is that Johnny X? - would be a good buy as it  would be invisible for FFP purposes.

He also said he desperately didn't want to lose him and that it was something they weren't planning for - Shelvey has initiated this. He's barely featured for us this season so his departure isn't going to be felt massively. 

I cannot see us getting someone in just for the sake of it. They'll be planning and if they can get a target then fine, but we won't be signing someone to just make up the numbers. It's clearly not their style.

i'd be amazed, and a little disappointed, if we went into the second half the season with just four senior players to cover the three central midfield positions. i'm not going to include anderson because i don't think howe fancies him just yet.

I think Howe (excuse the conjecture here) does like the look of Anderson, because he didn’t send him on loan. But, while it’s always good to give players an opportunity in a side playing well, we’re doing too well. By that I mean I don’t think Howe thought we’d be in a CL spot. There’s so much riding on the matches that has perhaps limited the opportunities for Anderson. If we were in 7th or 8th and concentrating on the cups it might be different. I wouldn’t judge him too harshly on the Sheff Wed game because of all the other changes. Agree with Gloom we’ll be looking to strengthen as Anderson’s lack of experience goes against him with the stakes being as high as they are.

Jorghino has signed for Arsenal apparently. 

 

i think he would have been a great fit for us tbh. maybe not the age profile howe is looking for, or lacks the energy to play howe's system, i dunno.
