Watching PSV and Sangre (as I read we were linked) and he is a huge unit but has not really stood out that much tothink he would be in our first XI

Shrug. Bednarek is as underwhelming as Oyvind Leonhardson. 
What a strange signing that was, even SGT admitted that he forgot he existed until he saw his name on the back of the programme when we played Spurs. Tbf I think he actually scored one or two important goals for us.

For saying how often he’s mentioned as the go-to ‘uninspiring example signing’  (and in fairness he was when it was announced) I thought he did quite well for us, scoring a few from the right hand side of midfield. Has he been a few years younger I’d have expected us to have kept him a bit longer.
As for links at the moment, I don’t know what to make of most of them. Are we actually going to get a dominant centre mid? Get the right one and we might not have to worry so much about playing the centre backs we already have.

Calum Chambers was as bland a signing as they come but he’s done really well since coming here. That pass over the top to Coutinho and his goal at Leeds…nobody saw those coming. Don’t need Bednarek to do that. Just be a solid PL defender next to Mings.

Bednarek is shit. If we really did go down that route it’d be very disappointing

Footy's boy Isak going to Toon for.. 63 MILLION?!

TransferMarkt has his value around 33m.

Heard he plays a wicked game tho

👏

Yes Isak is a statement signing.
He'll get goals and would have liked Lange to have made a move for him.

I’m not advocating for him. I’m preparing myself mentally for when we do sign him. Of course if stays there or goes elsewhere he will be utter shit.

A pity he was mugged off by that Bolton striker last night for their goal.

The lack of any links to centre mids at the moment is a trifle concerning,  but then no one knew we were after Sarr until it came out of nowhere

Were there any links to that PSV midfielder or was it just speculation on here, now they’ve been knocked out of the champions league they might want to cash in?

Not at all, under NSWE we don't really do transfer links.

I seem to remember Leonhardsen invariably played when we won that season….decent player, nowt spectacular

The opposition would probably be more afraid of the comfy cushion.

Convenient chopping of half a sentence.

We quite often do,  Bednarek currently,  Kamara was linked for ages,  Coutinho was linked etc. We do a few stealth ones for sure,  but we do get a lot of links too.
