Sign Vlahovic but don't go for Bowen? Free agents and who to avoid

[BBC] [Getty Images] We asked for your views on which free agents Newcastle could target this summer and whether there is one player the Magpies are linked with but you hope they never sign. Here are some of your comments: Elliot : Darwin Nunez he has been linked to Newcastle for at least a year and he cannot shoot to save his life. If Newcastle sign him it is basically over. Tom : After the years of Mike Ashley signing 'free' transfers that were rarely useful, always on high wages and generally had to be paid off, I wouldn't sign anyone on a free. A signing we're always linked with but I don't want... Bart Verbruggen. Yes, we need a new first-choice goalkeeper but this guy seems to make a lot of unforced errors. Paul : We are crying out for a proper number nine so I would take Dusan Vlahovic on a free as he is exactly that and still young enough with his best years ahead. The player we have been constantly linked who I would not want us to sign is Manuel Ugarte - he can't get a game at Manchester United so why would he get a game with us? Peter : I think it's a no-brainer - go for John Stones as a back-up with experience. Ian : Having watched Stones play against Newcastle in the cup back in March, I was struck by his quality, how assured he was on and off the ball, his communication, and clear leadership. I know he has had injury issues, but if we can afford his wages I would be signing him up. Richard: We absolutely shouldn't sign Jarrod Bowen - not that he's a bad player but because he's too old. He'll be relatively expensive with big wages, and he's too much of a Hammer at heart. Yes, he's got Premier League experience but we can get similar quality that is cheaper, younger, less wages and a higher potential sell-on by buying from Europe. It's perhaps this last point that is most important as I think we'll be adopting a more 'buy to sell' approach in future. I don't like it, but that's just how football goes now.
