On a free, although wages would be crazy which is the biggest red flag, if we could sign him and keep him injury free he’d be perfect for us. Said the same in a group chat last week. Even Calvert-Lewin. Not a rumour but knowing our track record we'd offer them both silly money to come here.

Maybe Wilson, given his age and injury record. DCL due to his injury record too maybe?

I'd say yes, probably sounds arrogant but I've posted a few times now about squad depth due to the sheer negativity on here(at times) we aren't in a bad a place some think. Great chance of going straight back up. A forward line of Fatawu BEK Mavididi DCL or Wilson Could be very very dangerous especially at Championship level. Dont think there's much better than the RW/CAM/LW in the division is there? 2
Happy Fox Posted 18 June 2025 Posted 18 June 2025 Some twitter talk that Real Betis are interested in signing Luke Thomas.

Dont think there's much better than the RW/CAM/LW in the division is there? DCL has had one purple patch in his entire career and spent more time injured than on the pitch contributing. Wilson on the other hand has a very respectable record when fit. Trouble is he rarely is. If he did stay fit Newcastle wouldn't be letting him run down his contract for nowt. I know he's done an interview recently about not being the main man and that he's been available but Isak is on fire, but there's no way he can be relied on for anything. In the last couple of seasons he's been injured for half the games. And it's always different injuries. There's talks about Newcastle potentially offering WIlson an extension. You'd have to assume if that were the case and not just spurious rumours then that means they're happy with his fitnesslevels. And as I say if he's actually over that, then he's not coming here.

Dont think there's much better than the RW/CAM/LW in the division is there? I'm not disputing that wouldn't be a strong front four (if we can keep Fatawu, BEK, and Mavididi we just need a half-decent striker to put chances away of open up spaces). I meant more, would Wilson or DCL want to play for us? I just feel like we would be seen as too much of a step down compared to still playing in a top flight team.

If we go into the season with Mavididi BEK Fatawu then it won’t matter who’s up front imo 😂 you could literally have Daka it will be the best front 3 by a country mile. 1

Lambert09 Posted 18 June 2025 Posted 18 June 2025 I actually wouldn’t be surprised to see us resign big Dan on a free. Genuinely could see it in our current state
Scotch Posted 18 June 2025 Posted 18 June 2025 I can totally see us signing Rhian Brewster on a free. Obviously, I don't want this to happen but...

Wouldn’t be a terrible move actually. I think there’s a chance he resurrects his career somewhere. 25 is no age to write off a player and I think as long as he’s not coming in as the main man, then it’s one that’s worth a gamble for someone. hypothetically, if we have a solid season and he comes in and does what he has for Sheffield around 10 goal contributions. Theres a good chance you sell him for 5m back to the championship. He’s not hit his prime yet , a curious one for sure

I agree he has never had that extended chance to show he can fulfil his potential but he may just be one of those players who's body will never allow him to. It's a chance I don't think we can afford to take right now.
DesertFox Posted 19 June 2025 Posted 19 June 2025 If we sign DCL or Wilson, we end up with 30+ starts for Daka 🤔
LCFCCKEANO Posted 19 June 2025 Posted 19 June 2025 DCL would be a great signing in the championship, would at the very least be a focal point, he will end up in a foreign top division
Langston Posted 19 June 2025 Posted 19 June 2025 Calvert-Lewin was good for about two months a few years ago when evertons tactic was to ping it on his head.. he's crap!!
