Any more comings and goings?

I wouldnt think it is actually him but a loan of a striker in the James Wilson mould. Young inexperienced, quick striker from a top club.

If we get Dwamena we have already filled the young unproven striker role.

Let's not have 2 of them.

My reading of this is that Dwamena is a bigger lump to possibly replace Murray or Hemed with strength and pace as opposed to a nimble support striker in the Baldock mould. Perhaps I am reading this wrong.

you are yes.... watch his highlight reel, certainly not a "Lump"

He is replacing Murray and Hemed but not like them at all really by the looks of it

I wonder whether we were truly in for Zohore. I think one of the work permit criteria is that you need to prove you can't get a similar type player from the EU for a similar price. I find it a bit odd that there are reports we make a high seven figure bid for Zohore (that is pretty pubic for us), turned down by Cardiff (which we knew would happen given noises coming from Warnock et al) and we then announce Dwamena for a reported high seven figure sum a couple of days later (and someone on here suggested it was a done deal before the Zohore bid was made). Naylor then says our interest in Zohore is no more, yet we're still looking for another striker...

 

[Marshy]

I really would have like Zahore, he has a bit of everything for me. And knows English football.

Oh well. I still could see a loan striker coming in, exciting isnt it ?

Crafty ! And makes a lot of sense.

Sounds a good ploy to get the permit.

True but then why would Hughton have bothered going to Cardiff? I think we may go back for Zohore and I actually think we will get him.

To make sure as Cardiff is not the end of the world. Will be easier to drive there and back when the tolls on the bridge have been removed, if they havent yet.

 

[Langley]

My sauce tells me there is one more loan to come in, and this one is almost insane, a bit mixed up actually.

It's got to be Joey Barton then.

Naylor has said our interest in Zohore has "cooled". That doesn't mean our interest in him is over. I imagine we'll be going back to him nearer the transfer deadline day. Hull made an offer of £8m for him not long ago, so I'm assuming Cardiff are probably holding out for any better offers.

 

[Lower West Stander]

Can't we just buy Ronaldo and have done with it?

I am really really close to quitting NSC because of all the bed-wettery defeatist shit on here, but then posts like this come along to make one realise why you stay. Insightful, intelligent, thoughtful and providing a completely different take on something.

Might be totally wrong of course, but we're all the better for it

And we know what loan striker we want

Started reading your post and was thinking that I wasn't really being that bed-wettery or defeatist!! Am sure I'm totally wrong but nothing like a bit of a conspiracy theory on a Tuesday morning...

Also, any idea how the hell you edit your post nowadays? I'm not sure our bid for Zohore was particularly 'pubic'...

He's way out of our transfer budget. His wages would be impossible for the club to sustain. Also, Ronaldo himself would have no desire in a million years to join us. There is pretty much zero chance of us ever getting him. Of course he would be good enough, but we need to be more realistic with our potential transfer targets.
I like your thinking but it just won't happen I'm afraid.
