andy carroll be signed on deadline day for 17 million debuchy deal and douglas deals are off the only other possible striker is kevin gamiero from psg for 10 million

Believable0 Unbelievable4

Pardew said on Monday night at a fans forum at SJP, albeit half tongue in cheek, that he would have him like a shot but we wouldn't pay more than 8 million for him, make of that what you will. In my opinion I think the lad will want to prove something to himself and kop fans, but then again does he want to play for a manager who didn't sign him and where the signs point to Rodgers wanting him out of the door. Also, who could resist coming home?

Agree0 Disagree1

People laughed at Kennys 35m but yhey will laugh even harder if we pay 17m as there are better strikers out there

Must be a deal somewhere in the air as L'pool must owe NUFC money.

Can you sign players that fail medicals?. Not sure as I think you must be able to otherwise how has hargreaves and Woodgate changed clubs ? Ed? {Ed003's Note - It has happenned in the past out of desperation or doctors advice things would be fine but the insurance side of things are so strict now, that's why it takes an age for signings to be confirmed after medicals}

Thanks here's a follow up question does this mean they get a pay out when a player gets injured through insurance?

Agree0 Disagree0

We signed Ben Arfa on a perminent deal after he broke both his legs? {Ed007's Note - To answer the last poster, insurance will pay medical costs and wages of injured players. If a player's career is ended through injury the insurance company will pay out compensation.}

looks like Sunderland aren't going to be stupid and buy Fletcher for £15m... they're just going to take Saha instead. ..

Saha Haha not a lot of difference

Newcastle should sign debuchy and leighton baines then look for a quality winger/midfielder

Believable3 Unbelievable6

Baines is 28 and would cost £15m plus so wont happen. Santon will play LB with Debuchy right when he signs....and he will IMO.

Agree3 Disagree0

Really think we could afford Leighton brained plus he's 27 and united were after him. Silly post... Martyn

Agree3 Disagree1

In order to get Baines we'd have to spunk the next three years transfer budget on him. We're a side step move for him aswell, he's much more likely to go to Man Utd, or even city if they're going after the entire England team.

well the egg man is right just racking my
brains to think who the striker is
my guess is
Berbatov or GAMERIO

Believable0 Unbelievable3

It will not be Berba but would love to see Gameiro come in. He was teh one they wanted last summer but he chose PSG and who could blame him really they are teh French equivelent of Man City, but tehy do not need or want him now so we should get him.

Agree3 Disagree0

Possibly Guidetti or, more probably, some cooked up deal for The Big Lad.

Agree0 Disagree1

y dont newcastle make a bid for that young french lad niang instead of over rated swedish players and man u flops a say young and cheap

Believable0 Unbelievable5

We haven't bid for Toivenen (I presume that's the over-rated Swedish player you're talking about) and we aren't even linked with Man United players.
