Michel Adopo we are interested according to Nico Schira

The type of player I expected us to be linked to in the next few weeks.

Wonder if there is anything in it

Dawson in the squad for the next.

If bethell and Dawson make the team our batting line up would be looking incredibly strong.

Newcastleclaret93

West Indies really have dropped off a cliff.

I don’t think there test team will ever recover to be honest.

Newcastleclaret93

You’d think a proper spinner would be needed at Old Trafford. Ahmed looks to be well in with the leaders rather than Dawson. Crawley and Pope are a problem, even the people who are desperate to appear positive know that. I think they’ve hung their hat on Crawley for Australia. Pope I’m not as sure....

Newcastleclaret93

Totally agree, the only other striker I’ve seen us linked with probably is the 6ft 6 guy from genk but I’m not sold on him at all, just because a striker can bully defenders in Belgium doesn’t mean it’s going to work in the prem, I’d rather go with a proven striker from the championship I agree, th...

Newcastleclaret93

Ollie Watkins similar build to Sargent and he hasn’t failed coming up from championship to the prem. Armstrong about 5ft 5 and szmodics isn’t a number 9, don’t think they are a fair comparison to Sargent Sargent in my opinion is a player that has really improved over the last 3 seasons. It seems to...

Anyone making any changes for the next test?

Newcastleclaret93

This is a truly magnificent test series.

Right up there with one of the best I’ve watched (although the pitches have left a little to desire)

Newcastleclaret93

Absolutely disagree. The women’s game is strong and growing. It’s not about converting the fans today, it’s provision a platform for the future. My ten year old daughter HATES watching her brothers play, even her twin. But, she adores the lioness and loves watching United. She’s a fan for life. It ...

The league will be really strong this year.

Chelsea look good
City have bought well
Liverpool have strengthened
Arsenal have strengthened

That top 4 is incredibly competitive now. That’s before you take into consideration the likes of of Newcastle villa spurs united

Newcastleclaret93

Just a small reminder that a tiny faction of male football teams make a profit All usually make substantial losses Like anything - investment is needed for something to grow I’m not someone that watches women’s football a lot but just be allowed to opportunity to grow like anything else and I imagi...

Newcastleclaret93

I think the women’s game as a whole is heading to a bit of a crossroads. It’s getting pushed hard but the interest just doesn’t seem to be following. I also think the recent antics with Villa and Chelsea regarding PSR also make a complete mockery of it. Does anyone think something needs to change to...

Does anyone know what's going on with Esteve's wrist? He wore a cast all last season, one would think it would have healed by now but I see he's still wearing it. Obviously a chronic condition. Might be wrong but I thought he did an interview a while back where he said it almost became a good luck ...

I honestly can't see Laurent starting games in the PL.

We are stacked in the 10 position and Hannibal will always get in before Laurent.

Laurent doesn’t play in the 10 position

If you are comparing JBL to players in the whole squad or the rest of the league then of course he’s not as proven.

But comparing him to the rest of the wide players in our squad he’s the most proven at the level

In that context I agree

Newcastleclaret93

He might of played in one of the worst prem sides ever but I think it’s fair to say he’s still proven at the level. 6 goals from 32 games, I think 15 starts, playing out wide is a decent return. Fair enough, I just honestly think to be a proven PL player you have to have done it over years. IMO Wal...

What a superb cricketer Root is. Bat, field, and even ball.

He genuinely has it all, and I'm loving his renaissance since relinquishing the captaincy.

For me it’s the longevity as well. The other fab 4 have started to drop away and if anything it feels like root is getting better.

Newcastleclaret93

Arguing that this is a waste of resources is really only valid if JBL has been signed instead of or at the expensive of positions of more need. I’m not sure we really needed another wide man either, but I’m pretty sure his arrival will have zero bearing on whether we strengthen the central midfield...

Well you are the expert on everything Burnley, despite never going down the road to Turf Moor!

Haha ok course I don’t.

Do you want to be an adult and discuss the talking point now?

Newcastleclaret93

Out of interest, who is better already? And no, part of you is obviously wrong. Right now I would say Anthony and Edwards are better. Tough to say on the others but given we spent the best of 30m on Tchouna and Tresor I would like to think both of them are also. Why is it obvious? If he’s not going...

Newcastleclaret93

Really really strange signing. I like him and he was one of the guys I thought came across as a genuine bloke from our last time in prem. However I just think it’s a waste of resources he’s not likely to ever start a game (as we have better already). We are going to have to shift loads of players ou...

Newcastleclaret93

Tchaouma - never seen him. Anthony - good Koleosho - enigma. Edwards & Benson - lightweight. Tresor - who will ever know ? JBL - proven PL player. Proven in what respect? He was just ok in one of the worst premier league sides ever. Seems a very weird signing. I just can’t see any starting eleven w...

Jofra just has something the rest of the lads don’t.

I see the Twitter crowd (who have an IQ well below average) are already saying how disappointed they are.

Wouldn’t say disappointing just a strange one.

Does he get in front of the other players we have? Really not sure

If Sargent is costing us between £16-18m, I’d like to think we’re looking at other options. I seem to be in a minority, but I don’t really rate him.

He has a better goal scoring record in the championship then Gykores

Newcastleclaret93

This actually looks like a howler batting first

Pitch is doing everything

Newcastleclaret93

To be fair, his average in 2021 was only 10.25 which massively brings it down which backs up your point. To be even fairer to him, in the last Ashes, he was England's top scorer across the series against a very good attack so you can understand the selectors keeping faith with him In the last 12 mo...

Nipping about all over the place now.

This looks a very tough place to bat

Newcastleclaret93

Pickford was 2017. He had played 31 Premier League games and just over 100 Championship. He was called up to the England squad in that year. Not much difference between Trafford and him at this stage of their careers so how can the cost be the same when prices have gone stupid. It’s been covered on...

Sunderland agreed a £20m fee with Brighton for Simon Adingra. Decent signing.

That’s a really good bit of business

It’s a tough team to get out of.

How Crawley and Bashir have managed to stay in that side is crazy.

The team is:

Crawley
Duckett
Pope
Root
Brook

Smith
Woakes
Carse
Archer
Bashir

Striker from almeria

Interesting link

Scored a bag load in La Liga 2 on a couple of occasions but struggled with the step up.

Would seem a bit of a risk in that respect

Houtondji has talent, I hope he pushes on this season and becomes a valuable player for us.

What is it you mean by this? Is this a suggestion that Parker inherited a worse situation and squad than Dyche did? I think the point he is making is that the squad Parker has inherited was considerably weaker than the squad Dyche was working with towards the end (and that is after seasons of being...

Looks like Baz has confirmed we won’t be going with the Bethell spin option (which suggests Bashir will definitely play).

So my expected starting eleven slightly changes.

Pope

Bethell
Root
Brook
Stokes
Smith
Overton
Archer
Carse
Bashir

I thought he could play anywhere in behind the three TBF. He IS a fantastic player. Had that broken leg and a series of complications that have stunted his development. There's far bigger than us that fancy him permanently but City only willing to let him go on loan is the story behind it I just ch...
