I'm a big admirer of Glenn but let's be honest he shouldn't be our first choice striker any more. No doubt, however, he'll be leading the line against Watford with the club pretending everything will be alright on the night. Never have I looked forward less to the start of a new season.

No thanks- desperate
Feel like this one has flop written all over it.
Hello if you're reading this in 2021 when Joelinton has just moved to Real for £850 million with add-ons after scoring 40 goals in successive seasons.

I read somewhere that Andy Carroll is available.

How many players per window can you £40 million on?
If the answer is '1' and the rest of the squad is as mediocre -- or dire - as it was before you spent the £40 million, you're screwed unless the transfer comes up aces.
I don't see the advantage in engineering a team on a single-point-of-failure design basis.

Toon fans credit Almiron as the reason Perez had a cracking second half to the season, he gets Newcastle moving forward. He is a decent player and I would have him here in a heartbeat.

Would be good if we started strengthening soon

We used to have a player like that, unfortunately he went to Fulham.
And if he also had a crop of missed half chances we'd have a ready made scapegoat so win / win

Ashley, does just enough. As does, Bloom, Parish, the chairman of Southampton, Burnley etc

Absolutely. The name of the game for us customers is survival and finishing 1 place above the bottom 3. There is no ambition at the moment for anything apart from that and it applies to all the teams in the premier apart from the super rich ones who are in a different league anyway. Makes for a fascinating season...scraping out 1-0 wins and trying to draw games away from home off those in our league. I can’t wait for it all to start again.

Incorrect.
Parish, Gold/Sullivan, Leicester’s owners, Wolves owners, all do far more than just enough to survive in the PL.
Mid-table PL football bought by paying huge wages and paying a far greater maximum transfer fee than the Albion, to achieve that.
CP have the highest, or one of the highest, wage spend to income ratios in world football. Parish has opted to take that route to acquire/borrow players to give them mid-table football.

80% I think I read it was, compared to our 55%.
Certainly some middle ground there.

Hopefully TB thinks just that, to acquire the ‘right’ first team additions, this summer.

Very strange they didn’t really chase Rondon who is worth 12 - 15 goals a season and they could have got him for around £16 mil. He seemed to have a very positive effect on them lest year!
