mackem fan come in peace, the news tday was routledge has signed a new contract at swansea after 2 great seasons for the welsh side.i want to know why he left nufc and what your fans thought of him, anyway good luck for the rest of the season and if you don't beat villa tmora il be very dissapointed because I've lumped a few quid on you to win, cheers.tk73

I always found his final ball was not good enugh

For me he used to drift out of the game too much, and was inconsistent. He always came across as a bit of a moaner don't know if he was, but we weren't the only ones where he didn't stay long, he has had quite a few clubs in his career and the majority have been short stays like ourselves

I was a fan of Routledge when he was here but was never consistent, moving to Swansea was easily the best decision he has made in his career.

Swansea are playing him more central.

All we did was shove him out on the wing and tell him to run for the line.

We did not see he had more to his game than just sprinting.

pardew said 4 new signings will be playing some part 2moro nite.... krul...debuchy...mbiwa...colo..santon.. anita...sissoko...cabaye...marvauex..guttierrez. ..... cisse.....

Please no gutierrez!

That's only 3, maybe Gouffran over Guti in a 4-3-3. Fingers crossed...

Needs guti to balence out the inexperince of new players. Calming infurnce on the game and to feed cabs and sissoko who will feed cisse

We keep including jonas and we keep playing rubbish its time for change

The two player that we should buy before the Window close are dries mertens for left central forward and miralem sulejmani for left winger and send a few of the youths out on loan and go for siem de jong and luuk de jong now or in the summer.

This player is a bit old but can still a job for us at left back john arne rise and I know we have brought a lb but he would be better in the development squad.

Don't see the point in bringing Haidara who was starting every game in the Nancy first team and putting him in the development squad were he won't improve we should of just sent him back to Nancy on loan til the end of the season if he's not first team.

Alan Pardew defending his transfer plicy earlier, should he have to? Many toons saying he should have signed young english talent, I think he has been canny. The young french players are just as good and have more experience. when you look in comparison- Phil Jones- 16 million or Yanga M'Biwa- 6 million. Jack Rodwell- 15 million or Moussa Sissoko- free. Daniel Sturridge- 12 million or Yoann Gouffran- again very little money. Cisse, Cabaye, Tiote were vertually unheard of before Newcastle, Ba had only played 6 months at West Ham, Santon was a product of the Inter youth system, Collocini not a target for europe's elite. I think the new signings could prove many people wrong!

Phil Jones was 18 not 23 and he is likely to be a future England captain. The other Englishmen are also younger probably increasing their price but they are still too expensive

So which young english talent should we have bought

And maybe phil jones won't be england captain

Mason Bennett - Derby County - Forward

Devante Cole - Manchester City - Forward

Nathaniel Chalobah - Chelsea - Defender

Harry Kane - Tottenham Hotspur - Forward

Ravel Morrison - West Ham United - Midfielder/Forward

Ross Barkley - Everton - Midfielder

Jack Butland - Birmingham City - Goalkeeper

Josh McEachran - Chelsea - Midfielder

and then you could even add tom ince, luke shaw, delfoneso,

I would of even spent 12mil on sturridge
