I don't normally get caught up in the transfer rumours. I'm gutted it looks like we're going to miss out on minteh tho. I know we're skint but i was secretly hopeful we could get both minteh and philogene in. Them 2 and ndiaye would have added some serious pace to our attack.

Never heard of Mineh before, surely if he was that good Newcastle wouldn’t be letting him go?

I wouldn't want us to be splurging silly amounts on a youngster that hasn't had much experience in this league. If he was worth that much, why haven't Newcastle played him before now? I've seen a few different valuations of him, ranging from 25m to 45m and I wouldn't pay anywhere near that. We sold Gordon to them for around 45m but at least the lad had played quite a few games in the Premier league.
We got burnt last season buying Beto, we can't afford to screw up any transfers this year. If the lad is available at a price that reflects his current ability then sound, if not we should just move on.
