Arsenal been quoted 42 million for him! we are "too small" to pay that cos its ludicrous money!
Agree1

Montpellier chairman now saying it was lost in translation and he saying NUFC are too smart for giroud and by that he means they too smart to pay the money! all though we all know 42 million is out of our reach!

And the point pardew saying you are not getting a striker in jan doesn't register, bet you get a cheap defender and thats it while Krul, Colocini, Tiote move on, Cabaye and Ba leave in the summer

What no Vukic
Agree1

Which Hooper is that our U18 striker or Gary Hooper? And Vuckic or Abeid should be on the bench ahead of Gosling who is overrated.
Agree1

And collo plays as the left side centre back not on the right side this boy dose not know much about his own team
Agree0

Aye but Vertoghen is a left footed player so they are unlikey to play him on the right side of defence
Agree0

Colo plays CB and doesnt really matter which side he on cos if you look at team sheets for the season when he was playing with s taylor he was exactly where the lad put him. anything to have a go!....spenny mag

I get so annoyed, just when I start to think that the fat one may have got it right, something else happens. All of the press joke about how pards wont get any cash and it is true. He could sell the likes of Shola, Best, Lovenkrads and Simo and get somewhere between 12 - 15 mil if not more. Then spend the 35 mil and buy some players of class
Believable0
Unbelievable1
Shola,Best,Lovenkrands and simmo and get 12-15m?? WAKE UP, that lot would bring in 5m max you fool. Lets face it,we are going nowhere until the Fat Man goes and takes Lambias and Pardew with him. YES Pardew has done a good job coaching but at the end of the day he is still a puppet for the Fat Man.

How is he, this is obv a SMB, your the only muppet

What 35m? still wishful thinking geordie's, which players of class would come to a team who are on the slide. ha no wonder we call you lot deluded. Lets all Laugh at Scumcastle

Suggestions on starting line up for Liverpool? I think we might start with Ben Arfa or Vuckic in a free role behind Ba, to try and counter the 5 man midfield that Liverpool play with. Itll be no good playing 2 up front and doing a long ball as they are big at the back.
Believable1
Unbelievable1
Pardew is not the type to change too much so I'd expect the only change we'll see is Ben Arfa over Best. Vuckic wont get a start which I think is a shame cos he was one of our best players vs the baggies.
Agree1
Disagree1
I would be happy to just see HBA in for Best and i suspect thats what will happen, if i had the choice tho i have to say i would drop simpson for raylor with santon at LB, simpsons been shocking this season. Not worried about the threat of carroll, hes been pants lately and colos playing out of his skin.
Agree0
Disagree2
I can honestly see shola starting alongside BA to put pressure on liverpools defence with 2 big lads! face it with carrol in their side they gonna be playing down the wings putting in crosses that our defenders are gonna have to clear and the ball gonna spend alot of time in the air so this plays into the hands of BA and shola! makes sense really but i expect Ben Arfa to play a part at some point!

Anyone thinking fat ash will spend in jan is a fool his only ambition for us is to keep us in the PL so we have the ability to attract decent players looking to make a name for themselves then flog them to the highest bidder, Tiote will be gone this window, Krul, Ba, Santon, Cabaye, HBA, Marveaux, Obertan, Sameobi, Vuckic will all follow in good time, being replaced by players good enough to keep us in this division for year after year until Ashley eventually sells up after making his money back, get real people and realise our owner doesnt give two hoots about us or europe, the easier way to make money is to buy cheap and sell em on after 2-3 seasons of relativly low wages, think about it, theres a reason we havent spent over 5 mil on a player in a long time, Tiote 3.5mil 40k (ish) p/w 2.5 seasons, sell him for 15mil = 7.1 million pound profit (again ish) in 2 and a half years, similar figures for cabaye, obertan, krul, even more for Marveaux, ba etc, all makes very good business sense, and equals mediocre mid table finishes for us fans, most people wont like this post but lets face it folks, its the truth and im as p**sed off as the rest about it.

At last, someone with my thoughts and a top class post mate.
Agree2

Ashley sold Carrol for 35mil (Dagliesh would sell him for less if he could get over 20mil) We are better off withou Nolan and Barton so that leaves Jose Enrique and he wanted to go and we would have lost him sooner than later...So in the transfer market what has Ashley done wrong
Agree0
Disagree0
Well he's not getting us cover in for Ba so he's got that wrong. And don't tell me Best ,Shola or Lovers gonna score a bag full ,they won't. Our only hope is Benny or a few Raylor free kicks for 3 or more weeks.

Do we think Pards is being truthful over the no striker thing?? also the quote iv seen said something along the lines of players values are inflated in January and we wont pay inflated price for striker(their might be more saying we aint going to sign strikers) this may just be a quote to say we wont be ripped off (hope so).

Then brings a non league striker in for a trial! already back tracking! if he brings a striker in of any class there is gonna be a lot of red faced people on here!

I am fully prepared to be red faced ,in fact i'm longing for it.

Ooh! non-league on trial is that the best agent ash can offer you ha ha ha
Agree0

So what if he's a non league player McLean was playing in the Irish league and now you's are making him out to be the next Bale. And Chris Smalling also came from non league football and is now tipped to be an England international for years to come and could get into almost every Premier League teams starting 11.

So we were prepared to fork out 6/7 mil (a LOT more than we have spent under this regime) for a striker, but now its fallen through, all of a sudden we no longer need a striker?
Hopefully Pardew is just doing the opposite of what he did last transfer window, i.e. begin by saying that we wont be buying anyone, then buy players, instead of saying we'll be buying players but not
