Not saying we dont need a striker, but.. how do you think we would fair with n'diaye, alcaraz and a top class right sided player, also with addition of a very good right back, with our current striker options?
Wild that someone can watch Jack Harrison and Lindstrom toil all season and then conclude someone with 8 league goals and 12 assists ‘wouldn’t get near’ our side.
It’s about style of play too, Newcastle wouldn’t have McNeil because they play a high press and a quick counter, and McNeil can’t do either. (Which is why he’ll never play for a top side)
Theyre nothing alike so that wouldnt be ideal to have him as a replacement.
The one I'd have is Lamine Camara as his successor, should have got him last summer before his Monaco move
Mukau 20
Diarra 21
Alcaraz 22
Total fees circa = £50mil
Add Lamine Camara from Monaco and we have the makings of a solid and effective centre midfield transfer strategy at relatively low cost.
Their wages combined probably arent far away from...
