So sell Richy buy a centre forward. That leaves us with 1 striker.

It’s a trade off for me.
If we are allocating budget for Gimenez, Toney, Guirassy then I’d keep Richy for depth.
If we were allocating for Isak, Openda, Gyokeres, Vlahovic id be fine selling Richy and having Son as a CF option or even Kulusevski false 9.
But with either of those options the most important place to go big is wide forwards. Our CF doesn’t get loads of touches and is more about occupying defenders with movement off the ball and being a threat from low crosses.
So most likely we end up with a new CF and Richy as depth then signing 1 starting quality WF
I’m ok with that. Kulu or Son as back up, poss one young un in squad. If disaster happens, buy in Jan.So sell Richy buy a centre forward. That leaves us with 1 striker.
Gyokeres too
Isak before him as well tbf but yes would be tempted by those 3.
In guess it also depends on if we see €65 for Sesko as breaking the bank
We can remove Gudmundsson from the list of potential transfers. He's going on trial on sexual assault charges.
Would levy not see a moment to get the fee reduced

So he’s signing for Woolwich then?

Doubt we were ever that interested tbh
I don't care what statistics say. Oshimen is better. I watched him reduce VVD prime to a gibbering wreck in a way Richarlison could never ever do....
Maybe he has a higher peak but games where he is completely anonymous.
The point of statistics isn’t that it tells a whole story; it’s that they can keep our biases in check and question what we see (or don’t see).
Right winger more important than all of these
Kind of agree but stats are only questions. Never answers.
If Osimhens stats aren’t better than Richy over a season then that’s a question. Maybe the answer is as you say that he’s inconsistent and goes off the boil but his best games are a level above but that’s the context missing from the stats.
Personally wouldn’t touch Osimhen with a barge pole for the money they want. I can see the Premier League being a real challenge for him.
If we were to get someone from napoli I would rather kvara as it's more of a need offers things our other wide players dont
Kvaratshkelia is also a much better footballer.
Waste of time though, we know that’s not happening
Yeah I can see that. Need the DM in somewhere.
I just want us to target technical players who can pass and look after the ball properly.
The 6 is less of a priority for me compared the other 5/6 bits of business we need to do first. Especially when it doesn’t look like anyone special is on the market. If an opportunity arises then go for it but I also think Sarr might be able to do a great job in that role too.
Sarr
Gallagher Maddison
That 3 would give us pressing, ball winning, cover for defensive transitions and some good technicians for creating chances.
It would be typical Levy to ignore signing Werner for the £15m or whatever and try to lowball later
Isak LOL
Why would Newcastle even contemplate selling to us ? Also the fact that he would cost well over 100 million. You are dreaming
