#1 Steve: We need to sign a good striker who is consistent and established. The club NEED another Glen Murray, but established quality strikers are rare and expensive. If £30m of Ben White's fee had funded a new quality striker, we would have made progress, instead of languishing with inconsistent Maupay and injury-prone Welbeck, who fail to deliver.

Sigh. You-know-who's on there as well, eh?

How can anyone think we've not made progress this season? We've been top half of the table for the vast majority of the season. :shrug:

BW2 and his mates. His name is Steve apparently.

But I think any fan with even a half of a footballing brain can see that you are right.

SKY DEADLINE DAY COVERAGE is painful to watch.
I can't wait until we get to see the guys standing in the cold outside various stadiums watching as the cleaning ladies leave the lights on.

2# Jason: We don't need to sell any players at this point and why sell anyone whilst we are doing so well. Bissouma if he does go in the summer it will be £50m+ and he is worthy of Liverpool or Manchester City and possibly a couple more top four teams. Villa and Newcastle isn't an upgrade it would be almost mercenary to join Newcastle as they are after everyone!

Looks like Ekitike is Newcastle bound.

There was a rumour that we had an interest but their bottomless wallet has clearly stomped all over that!

Looks like being a fascinating rest of season around the bottom of the table.....Toon strengthening and now Burnley, and Everton relying on Frank who's got no experience at all of a relegation scrap..................really can't see Newcastle going down with what they have (amusing as it would be if they did).................

Villa looking at a late swoop for Lingard, West Ham trying to do bits, Newcastle wanting at least 2 more, looks like there will be some twists and turns to come later before the window slams shut.

Sky now reporting this might not happen - the player needs persuading to go there...

I’d really love it if we nipped in and grabbed that deal. They inflated the fee so much though, I doubt there is much value left for us in any potential deal though.
