Would you be happy with either Cucurella or Tierney?

[@Ge0rdiE_1892]

Given that Dan Ashworth was involved with the deal that saw Marc Cucurella join Brighton from Getafe and that Cucurella played as LB, LWB and CB for Potter during his time at the club. I think Cucurella is the player that our club will be wanting to sign as I think he will fit our system better than Kieran Tierney.

[@iansmithfootball]

Hadn’t made the Dan Ashworth link. But I do agree Cucurella seems the more likely

[@Robert.Sheard]

Tapsoba and Tierney/Cucarella would round off a terrific summer.

[@janlievens6964]

Cucurella is fast good player would be good loan.

[@Andy-we5og]

Cucurella on loan without being forced to buy but with am option id definitely go for ,
Glad its Eddie that has to make These decisions
⚫⚪

[@iansmithfootball]

Agree, has to be an option to buy if we go for him.

[@LiamK-ep6fs]

I recently saw a tweet from an Arsenal fan saying they can’t afford to sell Tierney to us and some Arsenal fans agree

[@iansmithfootball]

That's interesting. I suspect the Cucurella deal may well be the more likely anyway and possibly be a better fit for us (in term of a loan deal)

[@peterrobson9920]

Right now I’d trust Howe 100%.. I’d even trust him if we signed Steve Bruce as a backup defender..the Howe factor just can’t be underestimated 😉

[@iansmithfootball]

Haha 😂

[@janlievens6964]

Jean Clair Todibo from Nice

[@iansmithfootball]

Man Utd are linked with him aren’t they?

[@marcmoat995]

I don’t think Arsenal or Chelsea would want to loan us players

[@iansmithfootball]

There’s definitely a chance this is a smokescreen and we’ll sign someone else.

[@marcmoat995]

@@iansmithfootball it’s happened already this year so why not ????

[@waynemathison2381]

ad take tierney very good player not sure about cucurella but in eddie a trust

[@iansmithfootball]

I think Chelsea went good for cucurella. Hard to judge him on last season

[@v4vendetta237]

If you think a fellow top 4 rival will do any buisness with Newcastle especially a loan then you are on spice. Cmon think about it.

[@the11metersd.x.channel.55]

Cucarella was left out in the cold, in a mental Chelsea transition.. Prior to that he looked class for Brighton.. I think he would thrive under Eddie and Mad dog.. Bags of pace and the engine required to be a Toon player..

[@iansmithfootball]

I tend to agree with this.
