He’s the same one that constantly attacks fans for being impatient, he likely will a week after this story. I get fans being impatient but his article is nonsensical, when you look at others around us we’re not really an outlier: Liverpool- brought in MacAllister & Szoboszlai probably the most advanced in the market so far. Brighton - lost Colwill & Macallister, brought in Joao Pedro, Dahoud, Milner and a keeper, under pressure of losing Caicedo Arsenal - Havertz in, Rice pending Man City - lost Gundogan, brought in Kovacic Villa- brought Pau Torres, Tielemans and a couple loans in Man U - Mount in Spurs - Maddison, Porro, and Solomon in, (didn’t count Kulu since he was already there) under pressure of losing Kane Newcastle - Tonali in, Barnes seemingly close. We have more weak points in the squad than a few of the teams listed but we still have around 2 months. I just think it’s an overly negative article and further underlines how little info he’s actually getting. Edited July 13, 2023 by Howay 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2317 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Barnes in, ASM out, and Chiesa, or someone like him, in would be very nice. We could also shake it all about and do the hokey cokey. But it might be the case that Howe thinks Barnes and Gordon are sufficient in terms of first choice wingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2317 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Looks like Brennan Johnson is off to Villa, at least according to Craig Hope. Could be a very decent signing for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4676 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Edwards is one of those sad little men every workplace has. Incompetent and largely clueless but has managed to stick around long enough to know enough people in the industry and scrape by a 'career'. I think we could actually start the season with just Tonali and maybe Barnes as the additions. As we near the window's close and activity really hots up I expect we'll make a couple of more moves to get players in, especially a LB. The club will wait that long for the right player and deal if necessary as they've already shown the last couple of windows. A couple of Saudi bids really would help though seeing as they are everyone else How about having the chance to demonstrate those ballan d'or ambitions to Ronaldo and Benzema eh Maxi? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7628 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 If we don't sell ASM, then the decision to spend big money on Barnes is mental when Isak, ASM, Gordon and Joelinton can play there. And we are one injury away from Lascelles being our starting CB for the whole season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2317 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Buying Barnes, should it be confirmed, surely all but guarantees that ASM is on his way. There's been rumours that ASM would be sold for the right price for a year at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we are one injury away from Lascelles being our starting CB for the whole season Pretty sure the club wont want to go to the new season with the defensive backup options we have now. A new LB would allow Burn to cover CB, and we will probably sign a new CB too. Window closes on 1 September 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almiron just signed a new contract, Gordon is now a god after winning the u-21 player of the tournament and Murphy has good bantz in the changing the rooms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw something with Kieran Maguire essentially saying that transfers are subject to amortisation and calculating in terms of the larger transfer fees is a fools move. Also, Barnes frees up Gordon to move to the right/centre and Joelinton back into the middle, instead of wedging two lads that aren’t naturals over there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently you used to be able to have wages that accounted for up to 90% of your profit, but it's been taken down to, or will be taken down to in the near future, to 70%. It's of course another attempt to pull up the ladder behind the "top six". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
