Interesting. Especially as one of them has a great all round game and the other is anonymous other than when he scores.

His style reminds me of Murray a bit. Perhaps not such a nice guy though. Potter won’t want a player, like Sanchez, who is only involved in goals.

I’d be shocked if his all round game appeals to Potter in the same way Maupay’s and Welbeck’s does. The new ‘big man’ needs to be a left or right winger who can come central and score some critical goals.

I don’t think Mitrovic is a Potter-type-player. Not enough work rate, passing ability, movement and good attitude. There is a reason he dropped down to the Championship. Pass.

Really not a Potter player is he? Will be be dropping back to AM like McBurnie does at Swansea? Is he fast? Does he have great stamina? Meh.

This. Our ‘slow striker’ pool will be well and truly fully stocked.

This is similar to the Hemed-to-Reading-Saga. Toon have no interest in selling the lad until they have a new striker. All the £50m and ‘not selling to rivals’ bravado will be dropped then. Will Ashley actually fork out for someone better than Mitrovic? I doubt it.

Should we really be waiting for Newcastle to sow things up for Nicolai Jorgensen or Slimani before we get our man? Didn’t work with Andone and might not work now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Fair enough [emoji39]

Not last season. Jörgensen was top scorer with 21 goals. Locadia had the same amount as Holla; 3. Just saying [emoji6]

That Feyenoord Striker was the Eredivisie’s top scorer last season and the lad also provided plenty of assists. Hopefully we are trailing this guy too.

This. All the time panicking and confusing the sort of clubs and agents who want a deal but beat us in the brinkmanship games on the last day of the last window.

After missing out on possibly 4 Striker targets on the last day of the last window (that could cost us our place in the top flight), would you not change a few things? Surely Bloom was asking questions and has requested we do some things differently this window? Diversion bids, whilst...

I’m very pleased we are after a genius number 9 as Locadia is not one (although I think he’ll be a brilliant signing). However, I think we need a Striker with size and pace, there is myth that Mitrovic is fast, he is not. Also, this is a genuine STH Geordie opinion that I absolutely trust...

That was a quote from Sky Sports. Either they are wrong or you are. Without a doubt, it’s you I’m afraid pal: https://www.transfermarkt.com/aleksandar-mitrovic/leistungsdaten/spieler/51152/saison/2017/plus/1#CGB Although he did start in the EFL Cup vs Forest in August. [emoji106]

Not the ones I know. They’ll be volunteering to drive him down. Plus there is this from SkySports: “Mitrovic, 23, has been out for over a month with a back injury and has not started a Premier League game this season.” Signing 1 injured striker can be forgiven, but two?

He quotes his source as a ‘Northern’ one which means it’s not the club. I think Naylor’s taken a chance here with his scattergun approach and his luck might have run out. Expect him to tow the club line and blame the source when the club deny the link (having signed their real target)!

Hope so. Dembele is on Celtic’s bench tonight in a Championship game. Seems he won’t even be brought on as a sub, his head must be in the wrong place after lil’ old Brighton lifted it’s skirt and flashed it’s knickers. I hope we are closer on this one than we are to Mitrovic.
