    Samu Aghehowa has also been scouted again. Well, nufc scouts were at the Porto European game mid week.

    Samu is said to be the player under review.

    January

    What do we need? What is it that we dont need, thats probably a shorter list...

    We need a GK, CB and a RIGHT winger. Possibly also a striker.

    GK, CB (left footed) and RW has to be better than what we got. Striker can be young and promising.

    Sure as hell we cant splash another 40-55 on a back up player.

    We need CB and RW at the very least, but Burn is England international after all, I cant see Howe benching him. Signing another big money RW wont make any good to Elanga confidence.
    GK? We have two. Striker and LW - same. CM - we need Miley to play.
    There is only Trippier to cover for Tino snd Hall, but its not a first team investment

    Burn wont play for England. Him and Schar is not getting younger, and has been in woeful form this year.

    Botman is always injured. Cant really count him in. I would get rid of him. Hes just like Wilson.

    We need a proper number 10.

    We have no creativity. Score against us first and it's game over with no-one able to unlock an organised defence.

    January thread 2 - the frustrated Boogaloo. Can we combine the two Jan threads Please Mods.

    The same problem persists. Away from home the team seem to forget how to play the game.

    20 games in to the season. More or less 10 away games played and Only the worst team in the league, Wolves, have a worse away record that NUFC.

    It was unacceptable. It's not the formation (the team plays well at home), it's not the team selection (same team as first half against Chelsea).

    All I can say is this can't continue.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAiqAdyWIEg - Mango breaks it down precisely.

    As much as creativity is required the first team needs a Diego Casta mentality. A horrible bas*ard. The lads have lost their S*** housery team.

    The only one who looked like a winner was Lewis Hall. He was genuinely trying to win the game. Everyone else was tippy tappy.

    I'm the other January thread there is a detailed list of player that the club should bring in.

    We need to make some serious changes. a Technician an advanced 8 to play in the 4-3-3 as a defacto No.10

    Joelinton sold in Jan?

    If Gordon has offers north of 75m I'll sell him too. It's the inconsistency since the F**k hair banned.

    Maybe selling Gordon and Barnes and adding more forwards is the answer. With a more narrow 4-3-3, with full backs overlapping. Gives us more striker quality in the box.

    Agreed it is a creative player we need.

    Our inability to unlock a stubborn defence is killing us.
