Gray can play fullback as well can't he? 

Diomande is meant to be good but not sure about Dumfries at all. Too old now and just never looked particularly good after early promise.

Every dutch player linked fills me with dread for other reasons too. 

Joyce mentioning these players is in a piece about a 5 point plan for Slot to improve his popularity with the fanbase ffs.

Number 1 should be f***ing off somewhere else. 

I agree, not a fan of Dumfries either but do think we need a RB and have Frimpong as Chiesa's replacement. It's Newcastle again but I do like Livramento.

Yeah he looks good. Think city and Arsenal are sniffing around him. Read Newcastle have to sell him in the summer cos he won’t sign a new deal. 
 

The Athletic today saying city is Anderson’s preferred destination too.

Would like Lewis Hall if we were getting a Newcastle full back

That's a great line/catchphrase.

Yeah he's good. Absolutely pocketed Salah a couple of times.

[Benzo-13]

All those players Newcastle have and only won a league cup. They could pocket 500m from all their sales plus flogged Anderson on PSR. What a mad club.

He absolutely has not earned the right to finish the season. 

I can see why it might suit us to allow him to do so, certainly at this point, but he could have had very little complaint about being sacked months ago. It goes beyond the results - we've got model pros who cant wait to get away from him.

Pure conjecture at this point. The lack of contracts or delayed contract talks are Hughes/Edwards.

[growler]

My prediction. 

slot leaves by mutual agreement to be closer to his family. Gives everyone a clean exit.

we sign two wide players. Diomande plus one. Not rocket science.

i think we get a 6, Wharton isn’t a pure 6 but is linked a lot. Macalister leaves and jones probably by looks of it. Nyoni maybe steps in? Or we get another?

not sure about the mama hate. Ali spoilt us. He’s one of the best of all time. Ever. Anyone will be a step down. Mama is showing signs.

rio and nyoni both count as home grown next season, so that clears space. Wharton is too.

i can see us picking up west ham/spurs players based on who goes down. And that Mane at wolves looks a decent bet. 18…

[Billy Talbot]

We could sign Wharton if we let jones and mac go and signed a proper 6. 

[Swagger]

With Wharton the worry is his lack of pace. Plus you would need to sign a proper 6 alongside him, and 2 midfielders on top of what we have to do - 2 wingers, striker, left back - seems unlikely. 

[Ombudsam]

We’ve just given Gravenberch a huge contract and Wirtz is the project. The next midfielder has to be one that complements those two.

We won't be buying a new LB. Tsimikas will come back.
