Oneyka said he wants to play for Man Utd yesterday so he's going to have to lower his expectations a bit...
Frank Onyeka claims he wants to join Bryan Mbeumo after AFCON: “I want to play for Man Utd” Brentford star claims he wants to join Bryan Mbeumo after AFCON: “I want to play for Man Utd”
He did play some games on the left side for Preston I think.I'm not sure, he made a lot of appearances there for Preston.
Which one of him?Do we know how old he is? Just checking.
We have competition for Rudoni in Esse...
Well Esse finished the Stoke game as AM and also played there for PalaceNot how I see it. Esse is competition for Sakamoto which is why he started there vs. Stoke. He can cover Rudoni but I'd rather we play new signings in their strongest position and where we've got the least depth. If someone can show me that Onyeka offers something going fwd, it makes sense. Otherwise, not sold on the idea.
Onyeka could play in torps role and torp where rudoni is?Not how I see it. Esse is competition for Sakamoto which is why he started there vs. Stoke.

Totally agree - this returns to the early-season style.Onyeka could play in torps role and torp where rudoni is?
Makes the most of Torps attacking talent.Totally agree - this returns to the early-season style.
Joelinton isn't very good .I just don't see what he brings to Newcastle he may be ok for a game or two but most of the team he's average.and that's being generous.I was watching the Newcastle match the other night and said to my lad, I'd love us to sign someone in the mold of Joelinton. Big midfield presence and stature, aggresive, great stamina for box to box action. Gets involved in everything.
Onyeka isn't far away from that type of midfielder.
Onyeka could play in Torps role and Torp where Rudoni is?
Torp played his best stuff when Rudoni was out did he not?Yeah, but Torp's had a great season so far playing deeper and Rudoni's been off it since he came back so I'd rather we deal with the issue directly - the drop-off in output and the speed of our play - by bringing in a more specialised CAM.

Don't worry, we're not in for him.Joelinton isn't very good .I just don't see what he brings to Newcastle he may be ok for a game or two but most of the team he's average.and that's being generous.
Probably not sure himselfDo we know how old he is? Just checking.
His match rating has been consistently good all season, with or without Rudoni.Torp played his best stuff when Rudoni was out did he not?
Torp played his best stuff when Rudoni was out
They're generally linked with most players being considered as transfer targetsWhy do Birmingham try and sign literally all our targets
We need legs in midfield not competition for Rudoni or TorpHad a look at his stats for last season at FC Augsburg and I don't see anything that says he'd solve our issue i.e. competition for Torp and Rudoni.
If anyone knows where to get fancy graphs and wants to show us different, go for it. In the one I found, he looks like an average DM that makes tackles.
Has Torp really played well there? Don’t think he’s actually played much in that role. Been Eccles/BTA. I think Torp is better deeper.Onyeka could play in torps role and torp where rudoni is?
Exactly.We need legs in midfield not competition for Rudoni or Torp
I think we'll be dialling up the aggression in the press tooExactly.
Our problem is stretching Grimes, particularly when teams attack us fast when we have sent too many players forward.
Onyeka doesnt need to be a fantastic playmaker, he needs to be a disruptor and legs to support Grimes
Why do Birmingham try and sign literally all our targets
There are times we need ball winners in that midfield. If you push up so high and don’t win the ball back, you’re exposed.I think we'll be dialling up the aggression in the press too
We need legs in midfield
The issue with goals comes from knackered out wingers and we have addressed that.You're not worried about the lack of goals and good chances created through the middle of the pitch? because that's the issue from my POV, and I'm not seeing a player like Onyeka solves that issue. I think we need some guile and risk taking happening closer to the front three. Rudoni isn't offering that atm. Allen and Eccles give you 'legs' don't they?
They are a better side with him in it mind youJoelinton isn't very good .I just don't see what he brings to Newcastle he may be ok for a game or two but most of the team he's average.and that's being generous.
Was it by fluke? I thought it was tactical by Howe.They are a better side with him in it mind you
He only ended up as a CM by fluke, he was once a hopeless No.9 who couldn't hit a barn door
He ended up there after Newcastle went a man down in one of Howe's first games and it just stuckWas it by fluke? I thought it was tactical by Howe.
Not really no, think that issue will be addressed with the dynamism offered by Esse.You're not worried about the lack of goals and good chances created through the middle of the pitch? because that's the issue from my POV, and I'm not seeing a player like Onyeka solves that issue.

What we have missed is a destroyer
Agree completely.Signing Onyeka addresses one of our outstanding main issues . Makes us less exposed defensively but still with plenty of attacking options playing in front of himself and Grimes. Also leaves a good choice of bench options .The issue with goals comes from knackered out wingers and we have addressed that.
We have Esse too who can play in the middle. Ideally we would sign a striker but we wont.
What we have missed is a destroyer to grab the game back when the opposition has control, which they didnt have at the start of the season but have in recent weeks.
