I can remember when this site used to be enjoyable but now you can't even write a simple post without a bunch of Sunderland fans writing abuse when I first came onto here you could discuss and have a laugh with fellow Toon fans but now there are more Sunderland fans commenting on our page than Geordies.

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Most sunderland fans are geordies its been proved by postcode count on season ticket apps ! the reason we comment is cos yous mags are a bunch of fickle dreamers who think cos a player is available yous wil get them ! get in the real world [ etoo] and we wudnt hav 2 slag yous ! !

Agree3 Disagree3

What gets me it's a few people people not all of us just like every club.

Agree1 Disagree0

I'm afraid that it is because in the past if we were linked with a player, it used to result in us buying them. This was because of the huge fees we used to pay, and also the enormous wages. In the cases of players like Ferdinand, Shearer, Asprilla, etc this was a good thing. However since then football has gone mental. Big money signings used to guarantee success. This is not the case any longer, as Boumsong, Luque, Owen, Martins, etc show.
Despite the club doing good business at present some fans still think you need to buy big in order to succeed. In the modern game you don't get what you pay for, 3.5million for Tiote (or you could buy an older player Scot Parker for 10million). I know which i prefer. There will always be crank fans, who think that we should be buying Lampard, Drogba, Berbatov for huge fees, thankfully these idiots are in the minority.

Agree1 Disagree0

Ya rite about expensive players not been worth it but do you not think if yous lose barton that yous hav lost your backbone of your team after losing carroll nd nolan ? i think those 3 wer the spirit of your team last season nd i can't see yous gettin that from the froggies yous hav brought in . lets hope they are as good as tiote but having said that theres still 2 months of the tranfer market left so i don't think either of us should be panicking just yet ! good luck 4 next season .

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree. Look at Henderson for example 20 million for him when you could buy one of those spanish under 21's for a quarter of that and they are 5 times better.

Agree0 Disagree0

Im not one who wants nufc to sign big time charlies who don't want to play for club, but if drogba or berbatov were happy to come to nufc you can't tell me you wouldn't be happy about it. .on top of this signing other players would be alot easier if we had one of these flagship players.

Agree0 Disagree0

Newcastle and Sunderland Fans having a discussing about football without abuse talk about world peace haha nar joking aside it's better like this.

Agree1 Disagree0

I agree bout henderson think most sunderland fans would of been happy with 8-10 million don't no wot liverpool are doin ! it all depends on who we replace him with tho ! i think if we can get gardner he would be ideal and hes got a few mor goals in him just hope we don't get left behind on our so called targets cos the rumour mill seems 2 be picking up !

Agree1 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 22:00:45
upson and campbell were first linked to sunderland think big mike has been on our rumours page ed

Believable0 Unbelievable1

You's can have them won't lose any sleep over them joining Sunderland.
Upson is rubbish have to admit Campbell is good but only scored due to Blackpool being so attacking.

Agree0 Disagree1

Hope not they are crap

Agree1 Disagree1

Best ripped upson to pieces that's how good he is

Sturridge will only leave chelsea if they sign Romanu Lakaku, Sunderland are willing to spend more money than us and are willing to pay his £80,000 a week wages. N'zogbia will only sign if we shift Jonas. . which is becoming more and more unlikely as he will have to take more than a 50% pay cut to move. I think we should get good loanees in and pay big money for a solid defence. OLD PRO

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Ed don't let others put my name to rubbish. . . old pro


{Ed010's Note -Old Pro, if you are suggesting that someone is posting articles, using your "name", then it is impossible for me to determine which posts are from you and which are not.

Having said that, there is a way around it but I need you to make the first move and from that, I will be able to assist. I require you to reply to this post, marking it for my attention (Ed010) and supplying your email address, in the box that is shown as "optional". Cheers Ed010

Agree0 Disagree0

Id be very suprised if the mackems had more money to spend than nufc.quinny said on the legends that most of the bent money was either owed to tottenham and the rest to be payed in installments over next 3 years, yeah theve got 20m off henderson which i expect them to spend but they have to replace the 6 loan players they had last year as well as zenden and cambell, they won't be spending more than 10m 0n 1player. .del

Agree1 Disagree1

20 mill henderson , 7 mill first installment off bent , 9 mill for finishing 10th that's 36 mill and that's without what we were goin 2 invest in the the team this season ! larsson free , westwood free so we havnt spent a penny yet so lets just wait and see cos theres plenty of time !

Agree2 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 21:26:00
someone puts a name on here then ye all believe first gervino his going to arsenal then nzogbia his going to sunderland then sturridge who says if he leaves will go to north west for family reason who tomorrow 4/6 adebayor

Newcastle are likely to submit a £8million offer for Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner, Good or Bad? I think Bad as I think now we have signed Demba Ba we should be looking for someone who has pace and is a good finisher, someone like Jermaine Defoe as Ba will be a target man next year. But then again this may be to add more depth in the striker department, only time will tell. (ToonThomas)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I'm an Arsenal fan and I believe Bendtner has the ability to be a top player. He is pacey (AW plays him out wide alot) and has the ability to be a top finisher, just check out some of his goals. While he has been inconsistent for us, he hasnt been given a good run in the first team upfront. He has bundles of confidence (to much at times). But he is already on 50-55k a week. Also think Arsenal would be looking at closer to 12mil for him.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Ba no slouch himself that's why he played most of his games on the wing for west ham! i reckon bendtner isn't a bad signing but he is expected to head abroad!

Agree1 Disagree0

Ba has told the board would like carlton cole as they struck up good relationship my fancy is young freddy sears got loads of pace

Agree1 Disagree6

Carlto Cole is garbage, and so is that rumour. I don't think anyone is stupid enough to pay money for him.

Agree1 Disagree0

Pardew probably told ba to f*** off haha

Agree0 Disagree0

In the betting with the bookies carlton cole is 2nd fav t join mags but who trusts the bookies half there market moves are t fool people into following false market

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 19:12:41
charles nzogbia will not be coming. pardew and mike ashley won't sign him if he wants that much wages. i told all of you that gervinho would not be signing and did he nope. so trust me the true newcastle guys, this del will not be happen. by friday there will be bound to be an answer to it all. i would not rule him out of joining liverpool. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ED DO YOU HAVE ANY NEWS ON HIM? {Ed003's Note - Nope}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I have to agree with the above we won't pay his wages.

Agree1 Disagree0

I hate it when people say I was the one who said he would/wouldn't be joining but have no name so there bulls**t doesn't get found out.

Agree1 Disagree1

Who knows don't always believe in what u hear in the papers. we might still get gervinho or nzog im am to believe nufc do everything in private to keep other clubs at bay so i don't think people know a great deal just speculate to sell papers. don't believe it till its on that nufc website or any other teams website. (WelshToon)

Agree1 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 20:11:00
newcastle will 100% sign at least 1 new striker other than ba! but its odds on it won't be a player over 28-29 unless its a free

Believable4 Unbelievable1

20 Jun 2011 19:42:31
All the mackems on here posting on this wall need to use google and research there facts. .you really are an isignificant prem team there is nothing remotely interesting about your prem history. before you start typing your wease keys are theese s**te in reply to this yes I know you finished one point above us yeah yawn yawn but nufc will be back and have a good go at being the best in the future and not just settle for your second best poor relations syndrome. . So stop deluding yourselves the only way Charlie will go to you is if nufc don't want him. Newcastle are a real prem club that has a history of attracting top players it's our choice if we want him we can get him that's the way it will always be in the ne you should be used to it by now. .what's ya highest prem finish again 7 wow you really need to know your place and it ain't top dogs like ya joke ov a DVD. . .

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Nufc were a newly promoted team last season so to be proud and boastfull of beating them by a point show the mackems fans ambition

Agree2 Disagree0

Well said these are a joke but just remember agent bruce has not completed his toon mission yet just wait till he spends all the money and gets them took down mags top dogs best fans, we don't need our chairman to go in to pubs began supporters(plastic may i say) to come to the ground (s**t Tip) and watch a load of on loan players that can't make it in there teams and can't wait till the loan deals are upwhy don't yous try greggs they do meal deals sorry bruce will bid £12mil for him you smb.

Agree3 Disagree1

Well said m8 true mags

Agree2 Disagree1

Even Quinn had a pop at his own fans earlier in the season. We were getting bigger crowds in the championship than them numptys

Agree3 Disagree1

Have you noticed how Christmas gets earlier every year, already B&Q are selling Christmas trees, Christmas cards are everywhere and its pantomime season at Newcastle United again. . . .

Agree0 Disagree1

Quinnie a magpie! always has been!

Agree1 Disagree0

Forget about the past look to the future sunderland are with 10 players out injured and one win in twelve to finish above you was a good achievement as i think ye had one of the best midfields in the premiership now getting dismantled and if ye had kept hold of carrol would have finished anove us. but also think if ye lost 10 men to injury over the season which league would ye be playing in next season if ye don't agree with this ye just like newcastle as ye don't go and not a proper fan p.s i hope ye finish second in the league next year as long as sunderland finish top and the north east need both teams in the top flight so we can have rivalry like this.

Agree0 Disagree0

How many times have you seen the cartoon army shouting "board out "and all that dribble over the last couple of years compared to the safc fans?
In the last 3 prem seasons when both teams were in it how high did safc finish above you "the scum"?
Also have you not seen the picture of fat mike with his sunderland shirt on?
Will scumcastle really struggle in their 2nd season with the big boys?
If you ever got relegated again how many fans would you get inside your half built looking stadium?

Agree0 Disagree0

Agent Brucie lol what you guys want to really ask yourselves is how we got agent Ashley there? Rename of ground! Banana colored away shirts! Team up for sale! Selling of any decent player!. Caroll, Nolan and the rest to come. Keegan being messed about, Shearer being used as a whipping boy, and I could go on and on. Oh yes and I would imagine Sunderland fans would stay off this page but as our page is littered by crap from Newcastle fans, I doubt that will happen. Long live Lord Ashley aka double agent Ashley Mac lol

Agree3 Disagree1

Your right about the fans wanting the board out and most still do but that not going to stop us supporting our team and that's why we go week in week out to fill our ground. not bad for a newly promoted team who are not top rats. .i mean dogs in the north east. but ambition is a killer and safc lack it from the top to the bottom. we heading in right direction signing new players. unlike safc

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 19:29:20
heres a thought! chelsea are going to sign lukaku weather they get neymar or not, so sturridge is definatley going down the pecking order in some shape or form. (JuniorJNR)

Believable2 Unbelievable0

20 Jun 2011 19:11:41
im not saying its going to happen but if we dnt get sturrage i think we should try and get kalou or analka as they may not be getting played as they are good enough for a weekly game. chris the toon

Believable0 Unbelievable2

All depends on chelsea's new manager mate anelka won't come we were trying to sign him for ages when he played abroad. kalou would be a good signing mind!

Agree1 Disagree1

Anelka too old and too expensive. not sure about kalou but he's a good player and would score goals. doubt we could get him tho

Agree1 Disagree1

20 Jun 2011 18:42:08
Hopefully guthrie goes to a championship team, he's utterly useless, one of the worst midfielders in the premiership last season!

Believable4 Unbelievable4

Ye just extended his contract and upped hi wages to 50k a week

Agree0 Disagree3

20 Jun 2011 18:40:18
Chelsea havent a hope of gettin Neymar he'l definitly sign for Real Madrid! Wheter sturridge is allowed to leave or not depends on what manager comes in, but Id say he will rot on Chelsea's bench until January then make a switch

Would give my left arm to see him in a Newcastle shirt though!

Believable5 Unbelievable1

20 Jun 2011 17:43:44
To the person who said 'Newcastle are likly to go for Sturridge if Chelsea get Neymar'
Tough luck because Neymar has signed for Real Madrid!

Believable2 Unbelievable3

No he hasnt as nothing has been reported. typical mackem.

Agree0 Disagree0

Errr no he hasnt real madrid and chelsea are both being linked with him and santos say they will sell him to a club who will pay his 40m asking price

Agree0 Disagree0

Be truthful reports from neymar himself is that he would rather stay in south america as his to young and loves where his at

Agree0 Disagree0

He should stay at Santos look at Robinho he left Santos to sign for Real Madrid and got to big for his boots.

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 16:22:03
Eto'o signing for Newcastle? Lmao you guys are really dellusional lol best one I've heard in years that

Believable3 Unbelievable2

You probably are a mackem, but your right etto wud neva come to us. but mackems are even more delusional than anyone. you think you are good enough to sign vaughn from blackpool, he is terrible but to good for yous

Agree2 Disagree1

Fans dream! its as simple as that! us mags dream of players like eto and such playing for us. you lot dream of brown gibson and o'shea. . . . . .no contest really!

Agree2 Disagree0

Not sure if brown oshea and gibson will come but more of a reality than eto drogba berbatove sturridge bedtner gervino nzogbia coming to the toon

Agree0 Disagree0

Not really when you think 2 out of the 3 turned you down! zog already been to toon so not hard to believe he would come back although i doubt it but shows the comparison of the 2 clubs when you get linked to players like we do and you do. us- erdic, matuidi, barnetta etc. you lot- campbell, boothroyd, brown. . .see what i mean!

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 15:30:33
Gutted we arnt going for N'Zogbia anymore looks like he is going to the bloody mackems we should still have a better squad for next season that's if we keep hold of the key players like (barton gutierez tiote enrique)

Believable1 Unbelievable1

He won't go to mackems! deffo

Agree2 Disagree2

He will man weve already signed a left and right winger

Agree2 Disagree0

Zog would never go to mackems as he is looking to a team that is a step forward not same level. plus wants european football and sunderland just don't have that. ever! mags don't but he still likes the club

Agree1 Disagree1

Who ever the Mackems sign, they will always remain in our shadows-you always have been and always will be !

Agree1 Disagree1

I realy hope he duznt go to th mackems fotr th simple fact they will be bragging sayin "he chose the betta club", bull**it n zobia will go to th club that offer him th most wages. liverpool

Agree1 Disagree1

But he will buy a house in newcastle and won't drive a nissan cherry, up the toon down with the scum. Ps they have not got a rumour page coz nee one wants to go there

Agree0 Disagree1

There is a rumour page mate its full of s**te from sgb like on here dreamers and if we don't get nzogbia its not the end of the world

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 14:25:27
eto's hardly going to leave a club like inter milan for newcastle?! they want like 20 million and he's getting paid 160,000k a week? doubt newcastle could up that anymore.

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Ye right mate only chelsea or man city can afford those wages

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 14:13:12
If you could choose, who would you have? N'Zogbia, questionable attitude/desire to play for NUFC/a bit greedy, OR Adam Johnson Confirmed NUFC fan/quality/British.
I know it is unlikely we'll get either at this stage, but who would you prefer?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Any would do for me, both the same sort of player. You say he has bad attitude though but hes never done anything to show his bad attitude at wigan just when he was a young lad at us.

Agree0 Disagree0

What you talking about about? Adam Johnston and his whole family are Sunderland fans, check your facts mate

Agree2 Disagree4

I think YOU need to check your facts mate, Johnson is a confirmed NEWCASTLE fan FROM a family of idiots (makems).
Muppet!

Agree2 Disagree1

All his family are but he is a Toon fan.

Agree2 Disagree1

A.johnsons family are mackems yes but he is a nufc fan! FACT (WelshToon)

Agree0 Disagree0

Born in Sunderland, England, Johnson grew up in a Sunderland supporting family, but he supported Newcastle United throughout his childhood. Actually :D

Agree0 Disagree1

Ye they drive a 1970 nissan cherry with a 5under1and sticker in the back window don't they get reeal

Agree0 Disagree0

He is from easington actually not sunderland but he is a newcatsle fan. I thought this debate was cleared months ago on th site.

Agree0 Disagree1

Ask harper who he supports answer same as johnson both have same fav magazine think its called a love supreme

Agree0 Disagree1

20 Jun 2011 13:44:12
If Chelsea sign Neymar - which looks very likely - they will allow Sturridge to talk to Newcastle about a 12month loan with an option to buy (£15m).

Looks even more likely now that Villas Boas looks to be new Chelsea manager and Sturridge won't get a game with Torres, Anelka, Drogba, Kalou and then maybe Neymar and Aguero.

(ConnorH)

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Theres also a good chance that barca will sell David villa

Agree2 Disagree1

Dont tell us ye interested in david villa now

Agree0 Disagree0

He was talking about Villa going to Chelsea.

"not surprised we re buying French players our young English players are overhyped, overpaid and lack technical ability"

I Disagree My Friend. . . . . .

I totally agree with that.

Always good to have a friend !

Why arent france there

Agree0 Disagree0

Couldnt answer that one lads france are s**te at u21 and full level only knocked rep ireland out of play off with cheating hand ball

20 Jun 2011 13:10:42
If Sturridge is offered for sale. . .There are at least 10 clubs expressing an interest, including Man Utd, Liverpool and Arsenal.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

Chelsea will not accept bids from teams in the top 8 if Sturridge becomes available. They do not want him to move to a team that will rival their position.

Agree1 Disagree0

Like torres from liverpool to chelsea or gallas from arsenal to spurs etc etc.

Agree0 Disagree0

Arsenal had no choice in the matter Gallas was a free agent when he joined Spurs also for a fee like that Liverpool weren't going to say no.

Agree0 Disagree0

See you have pulled out the race for N'zogbia, what happened to all the muppets who said he is coming to screwcastle 100% eh? can't even afford 60,000 a week for him or is it just a smokescreen to make you feel better that he didn't want to go back to you.Ha Ha told you clowns that N'zogbia won't be coming to you but did you listen no, what did you do? you believed your own bulls**t as usual and got all arrogant and deluded, said from the start you may have 35m to spend but it will be used for wages aswell, selling your best players getting unproven players in. Pardew must fancy another relegation. nice to know that you have been giving another dose of reality. whats your replies going to be 5-1 blah blah blah, whatever that result didn't help you finish above us did it and you have sold Nolan who scored 4goals against us. 1 step forward 3 steps back comes to mind for you. Enjoy your relegation battle next season. SGBS

Believable2 Unbelievable4

According to daily mail or mirror? don't believe everything you read. stupid p***k.

Agree1 Disagree0

You finished 1 point above a promoted WOW!

Agree2 Disagree1

Nzogbia is on holiday and has already agreed which club he would like to Join, We just don't know which, although we do know Steve Bruce is stalking him.

Agree2 Disagree0

I see your signing Larson. Good signing. .no really he is really really good. He almost played a full 90mins last season for Birmingham (and they did well) Gardner as well i see, same again, was awesome last season for a very good Birmingham side. You might also get Wellbeck back on loan, IF he can't get a game for Man U before January (proving yet again all the top players want to sign for you).
As far as i'm aware N'Zogbia hasn't signed for anyone yet, so i would maybe wait to see what happens before gobbing off, you may end up looking silly. (I say silly, what i mean is more of a knuckle dragging ass clown).

Agree3 Disagree1

Big larson going to a relagation club on take loan deals should get noal edmonson on board loan or no deal you smb

Agree1 Disagree0

SO WHAT A POINT ABOVE STILL MEANS WE ARE ABOVE SO THAT 5-1 MEANS NOTHING. Can't wait for N'zogbia to go to sunderland or liverpool, even if he does not come to us, just will be funny to see what those sad geordie's who said he is 100% coming to screwcastle say. Your deluded morons your best players will go and what little common sense you have, you must realise that losing your best players and bringing in unproven players could backfire and you will be deep in the relegation battle. Sunderland will be more than safe next season. funny Larsson has turned down teams like Villa, Arsenal etc. . to sign for us, should be confirmed July 1st aswell as Westwood who Everton were after, these players can't be that bad if decent teams like them are after them. Like I have said before wait till the start of the season and you will get another dose of reality which hopefully will deflate your arrogant ego's. SGBS

Agree0 Disagree1

How did you feel when you got beat off a promoted side 5-1? ha .

Agree1 Disagree0

Who the unwashed signed? . . a nobody

Agree0 Disagree0

How did it feel getting beat 5-1 off the mighty BOLTON??

Agree1 Disagree0

The fact is from what people are saying and from what i have seen marveaux is a good enough player for us not to worry about getting nzogbia but would obviously like to see him come the fact is even if he didn't come to his first choice which from what we have heard is newcastle then where would he go liverpool or sunderland? not much competition there lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 12:21:55
lovenkrands, will not be leaving, ehy post so much stupid comments, pardew has said he is staying, that p[sg striker won't be next thru the door, that wee left back taylor will be. and we won't be signing a striker for a few weeks, but we will hve one b4 the usa tour

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Get him out he's bloody useless so is ranger

Agree1 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 12:19:19
id doesn't look like we will be getting charles nzogbia, he wants £60k a week! ! ! not worth that at all. and that psg striker, is not even worth 310m apparently. if chelsae get neymar or another striker, sturiage will want to leave.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

No player is worth 310 million :)

Agree2 Disagree0

Can see Falcao or Hulk joining Chelsea if Boas is next manager.

Agree0 Disagree0

To the comment 2 up what about ronaldo messi and Rooney all rolled into one. It would be the quickest, ugliest and most technically skilled scouser ever!

Agree2 Disagree1

20 Jun 2011 12:11:55
IMO Ashley is doing things too fast and this is worrying me he should be easing these new players into the club not throwing them into the deep end and hoping it works out well also I think the transfer policy needs to be changed cause really can't see any player coming in for £10 million.
It seems everyday there's another player for sale.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

20 Jun 2011 12:03:37
If this Barton to Arsenal rumour is to be believed what about Abou Diaby coming the other way.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Fits the policy French and has injury problems

Agree2 Disagree0

And apparently hates ben arfa

Agree0 Disagree0

He does hate ben arfa there is a video on you tube of them nearly scrappin at that french acadmey when they were 16

RE: Graham Carr
I think he has enough love for the city and club for him to stay, although money does talk and we could soon see him off but i think he's a genuine person who will finish the work he is doing here before retiring.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Im sure he came out a few months ago and said he's had 40 years in the game, he now wants to bring success to Newcastle as his dad used to play for us.

Agree0 Disagree1

He s on a 5 year contract and Chelsea are after Steve Rowley chief scout at Arsenal offering to treble his wages. With all the knowledge these guys have they are worth every penny

Agree1 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 11:15:23
should newcastle lose the following Enrique Jonas Colloccini Barton Perch Smith Guthrie Best Lovenkrands and Ranger all mooted on top of Kuqi and Campbell we will need to sign 13 more players as our squad is already a touch thin i would expect LuaLua, Lovenkrands, Enrique, Guthrie, Smith and Perch to leave due to contract year / not very good at football (perch) Best will not be leaving Ranger will but only on loan to Wigan or Wolves
dont expect Zog move to go through soon if at all as hes in miami on holiday he won't join sunderland for obvious reasons he won't join Liverpool coz of Carroll could however join Arsenal if Gervinhos agent continues to muck them around. toon will sign 5 more players 1 CF(Erdinc) one RM 1or2 LBs(Taylor) and a CB

Believable0 Unbelievable2

What obvious reasons 4 not signing 4 sunderland ??? hes got a good relationship with bruce and we are willing 2 pay wages so can you explain without bein stupid !

Agree0 Disagree0

Just look at the prestige of the club and also the amount of people he knows at the club.

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Jun 2011 08:55:41
The sacred number 9 shirt will definately never be given out to any loan player, especially if it is a young player like sturridge

Believable4 Unbelievable1

20 Jun 2011 02:48:46
Pardew will make a bid for Nicklas Bendtner this week, 8,000,000, is a player with a lot of ego, but this club, if something can do is heal egos, I would be happy if signed, would be worth risking, have goals, can play in the band is young. be my head forward (but not the number 9), my strikers would be:

1: Nicklas Bendtner (holder)
2: other striker, skilled (holder)
3: Demba Ba (alternate)

Believable1 Unbelievable3

8M? Try at least 12-13m coz that's what Arsenal will want for him.

Agree1 Disagree1

20 Jun 2011 02:41:48
Nassim Ben Khalifa is a player with great technique and ability is available for 1, 500,000, would be a good sign, thinking about the future.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

20 Jun 2011 00:08:57
I think we most now be looking to bring at least two strikers in as soon as possible. Samuel Eto would be my perfect choice (but just a dream as wages would be far to high and the wrong age with no sell on value). But if Ashley really wanted to make a big Statement to the the fans it would be great. Sorry back to reality I would go for Sturridge (pace and skill with great potential) and Defoe (pace and gauranteed premiership experience and goals) upfront next season around 20 - 22 million for the pair. With Demba Ba and one other perhaps Erdnic 6-8m as back up (Funded by the sales of Ranger, Lovenkrands, Best, Gutherie, Perach, Smith, Ryan Taylor). We now have more pace and attacking flair in midfield with Gosling, Tiote, Ben Arfa and the signings of Cabaye and Marveaux. Perhaps N'zogbia or Johnson (for around 10 -12million) or my preferred choice of Shakiri for around 15-18m (partly funded by sale of Guiterez 8m). Marvin from Soucheux or Barnetta (around 5 - 6m) if Barton leaves. Just need a couple of fullbacks Corluka and Adriano of Barcelona (monies from Enrique should cover both going and with exchange for Adriano) and centre half cover Upson as he is available free or Woodgate on a pay as you play he is still quality if fit. Would let Krul and Forster fight out No1 spot this season with Harper as back up with a view to coaching role.

Roughly breaking even overall.

One last thing I hope the rumours being spread about Tiote going anywhere (Arsenal) aren't true but it's interesting that he's supposed to be great mates with Gervinho and tried to convince him to come to us and now rumours are about Tiote going to Arsenal ?? Finally would we still be interested in Gervinho if he doesn't sign for Arsenal ?

Its all good listing players who will replace our current players as they are younger and more technically skilled but your essentially taking the soul out of the team.
