Morning Trish, how's it going?
Lots of talk we are in for a striker in January
I watched the lad from Lisbon last night closely and have to say I didn't see much about him
If you was to choose a forward for us that would suit our style of play who would it be?
Thanks mate.
{Ed001's Note - Gyokeres certainly didn't impress last night, though he is probably the one closest to the type that would suit your way of playing. Lautaro Martinez would probably be a good choice, but at 27 it might be that he has missed his chance of that big move now. His price would probably be exorbitant and PSR will bite on finances. I think Boniface is probably the one to look at. Seems like a good lad as well.}

Were you watching the arsenal last night then ed001?
What do you make of us this season?
A.
{Ed001's Note - I watched as much as I could between editing, you looked back to something akin to your best. You look much more solid with a proper left-back. I just hope Arteta has realised that he built a side that is perfect for taking the game to teams and has given up on trying to be pragmatic.}

Thanks for the reply mate
I see a bit of sesko looks a good prospect.
{Ed001's Note - Sesko is very much the same as Havertz though, which is why I didn't put him forward. I don't think he would be an upgrade on him, so no point in splashing the money.}

Thanks for your insight trish
Do you go to Edoo2 funeral mate.
{Ed001's Note - no mate, I am not in the country. I moved home a day or two before he passed and am still trying to get everything sorted and settle in.}

Ed001 do you see Isak as a good fit for us?
{Ed001's Note - technically, yes. I have worries about his attitude though, he seems a bit happy to take the money rather than looking for trophies.}
27 Nov 2024 14:02:49
Thanks ed001, that's a bit concerning.
{Ed001's Note - it does bother me, I mean he didn't join Newcastle to win things. He has not moved yet with the intent of doing anything other than taking a good contract and signing fee, plus the standard 5% cut of transfer fee that players get. He could have joined a number of clubs, but Newcastle offered the most money.}

First time watching Gyokeres for a full match and all I could really think about was how much Gabi had his number. I could see flashes of potential but given how cut off the Sporting midfield was from him, probably a bad game to evaluate him on.
I wonder if Osimhen will leave Galatasaray soon? Seems like he's wasted in Turkey.

I've just read a rumour he wants ManU, to meet up with Amorin again.
28 Nov 2024 19:07:49
Do we need to upgrade on Havertz? We definitely need cover or someone to push him so I think Sesko is the best bet.
I’ve seen rumours around Wharton in January which makes sense as Jorginho and Partey will probably move on in the summer.

We should also 100000% be looking at Cherki at Lyon. Could be an absolute bargain with Lyon’s financial problems.

Don't know what you were watching, he went past Kiwior like he didn't exist and hit the post. He hardly got any supply tbh.
