We’ve managed without all three at different times throughout the season and picked up results no reason to think that would alter

I’m willing to bet that all three will still be here when the window shuts.
If 'managing without them' means staying up, yes we can. Would we be as good without them? Obviously not, at least at first.

Newcastle are also interested in BDB, apparently.
Saudi Utd are interested in every PL footballer at the moment, it seems
Blue Valkyrie
Not seen such Bravery!
They are absolutely desperate for a central defender so will be interested in every PL one there is.
With only 6 days left in the window teams can name their selling fee.
Should we say £25 million for BDB ?

not sure but shifting them 3 pays for half of the Amex , im not advocating it at all , just saying.
and i think we would maintain a reasonable level on the pitch.....why give our direct opposition a leg up though... villa , newcassel both teams we are tussling with in mid table or will be from here on.

I said a fortnight ago that he was the Albion player that was the best bet for them. He'd be an instant improvement to their backline and considerably cheaper than Webdini both in terms of wages and transfer fee. For Dan, it would be a chance for a last decent pay day and an opportunity to go back to his boyhood club. This would not be a transfer that shocked me.
And the horse punchers should bid for Groß too. He's exactly the sort of player they want - experienced in the PL and nearing the end of his contract. He'd be very cheap.
I know the club is rolling in money but they did say that they weren't going to mad and keep within FPP. Both BDB and Groß fit the pattern of the sort of player they're buying. I'm not saying they're likely to go there but they're both far more likely than Webster or Biss.
The club will not sell all 3 any time soon.

I think that Lamptey would be the biggest miss of the three as we don't have a replacement in waiting.
Obviously all would be missed to some degree and if we want to continue our great form (or even improve) we need to keep our best players.
It is a balancing act that the club will have planned for.

Good question. Personally I think we will be OK all the time we have Potter as I put all this success down to him. I am not suggesting he is making a silk purse out of a sow’s ear, but he does seem to be able to get the best out of most of the players at his disposal and mould them into a decent side. Much of the value of our players is within the context of their play within Potter’s setup. You can’t put an Audi cog into a Jaguar gearbox.

For Webster and Bissouma we have similar players, not at quite the same level, who can step in. Duffy or Roberts for Webby, Mwepu/Alzate/Caicedo for Biss.
Lamptey is the player we cant really replace at the moment, we have players who can play RWB but not who are anywhere near his level, and do what he does.

Not to them. The Saudi premium is a lot more than that.

Biss is in Cameroon and if Mali win next match still there next week, so no way that transfer is going to happen anyway.
I think Webby and Lamptey are young enough to know that there is no immediate rush for them to move to a relegation battle
Surely, even if tempted by the filthy lucre, you would wait to make sure Newcastle stay up first, then if they do, go there in the Summer when they are building for the future.

Lamptey on his own made a huge difference Sunday.

Agreed, I would happily,.. well unhappily, let them go at season end, but not in Jan... let's finish high enough to be an attractive option for new quality recruits in the summer.... that's my view.
