I'd be surprised if we went for Kvara when we need a natural 9. Unless, Nunez, Jota and Diaz were going.

£1,500,000 per week of course the player is interested.

£125 upfront will get it done, other £40-£50m will be based upon tough to achieve targets like Balon D'or, Hillary Clinton being Princess Di and Prince Andrew being innocent. PR will love Deadline Day drama

Looks like we are cracking on. VvD sending off appears to have prompted a step up CB department and midfielder ball has been gathering momentum for the last week. It won't be a deadline day thing but looks like 2 incoming. Mega bucks move for Salah would be only outgoing.

If I were a betting man (am not) I'd go Theate or Hincapie & one of Doucoure, Palhinha, Sangare, Luis or a Kenneth Taylor (but Ajax have sold loads so probably not).

You're right I don't watch it closely enough and I still had the seasons starting late in my head. I think it was an October start last time I paid attention. I see the loans being an interim measure to keep players happy for world cups and euros not just the Geordies. A few lawyers I know have been offered BIG money recently to move to act as agents. I unfortunately, have not.

I worry that Saudi Clubs are positioning themselves as "Parent" clubs. Free to buy everyone (No FFP) and then loan them to affiliated clubs like Newcastle. How long before Super Cup becomes Super League woth Middle Eastern temas actually competing. FIFA rules permit a player to feature for no more than 2 separate clubs in a season but "seasons" are different in ME.

That's acceptable. Putin, Sunak & Henry can all f*** off (to differing degrees)

If that's true I hope all the others got told to f### off.

Hth,who rattled your cage?

Purely hypothetical - Salah goes for 125m-150m but we sign Chiesa, Hincapie & Doucoure. Are you happy?

It's actually Steve Carrell from a scene in the office.

Anyone else worried about Salah? He is 31 and they are offering 4x his current wage. I think he would have to ask for the move for it to happen, fwiw. Whole team/system would be restructured if he does leave. You cannot replace his output with one player.

Rumours have begun about QIA again. Full sale. I have no clue if true.

£125m gets it done.
