TV reporting that we're closing in on the signing of Remy. Lorient won't sell Aliadiere and Aubameyang doesn't want to leave.
Really need to bulk up CB options first and foremost.. Especially if Colo goes. Taylor injury-prone, Williamson not PL standard. I know the whole 'under 25/27(?) policy' but, especially at the back I think experience is key. I'd love Lescott at the club. More likely to sign Tomkins/Isimat Mirin/Okore.

Absolutely do not want lescott, as you said he does not fit our criteria his wage demands would be absolutely ridiculous and he isn't that good anyway, only reason city had him is for home grown status, if we were to break the policy i'd prefer brede hangleland, okore and or mirin would be nice but until either arrive i'm not holding my breath, Grant Hanley for me is one that is not talked about enough young british and has a decent bit of experience under his belt already and im sure he'd love to quit blackburn for us

Why we didn't sign Bassong when we had the chance during the summer is beyond me, Young fast powerful and as we know has real quality at 4 million was a bargain
Agree3
Disagree6
Should of signed Bassong when he was here on loan a few years ago
Agree1

I would love to see Okore at SJP. Calm on the ball, and a good leader, would be an ideal replacement for Colo, whether now or in the future.
Agree5

I heard we are interested in AS Nancy left back Massadio Haidara anyone no much about him

Bassong wasn't on loan. Newcastle sold him to spurs for 8mill when they were relegated.

Remi is going to Arsenal, fact we are not signing him, also expect more of our players leaving, Ben Arfa and Cabaye could go.i work at the club.Trying hard to get replacements but with our form and league position is being a problem.

2 the 3rd comment, I would take Lescott anyday. My partners a City fan and I watch a hell of a lot of City games and he really is class.
Everygame Lescott and Kompany has started in they have not lost over the last year or two.
I think he would be a stable rock for us if colo were to leave.
There are not many primed players capable of adapting to the PL within a short amount of time due to this we will need someone who is already used to the PL and for me he is a great option.
Other than that I would try for fulhams CB (BREDE HANGELAND) who is around the same age as colo and would be a cheap replacement due to his contract being up in June.

Newcastle close to signing remy, deal should be concluded by tuesday no news on the fee but likely to be 9-13 million .
Newcastle are keen to get a deal for a cb done this month a couple of names been mentioned douglas and ismat mirin
A deal for gaetan bong will be completed by the end of the month pardew plans on using santon further forward

I thought remy was going to the gunners? that was what he said would be his dream move! do we want him
Agree2
Disagree5
The gunners? What are you smoking? He has said Newcastle is his club in the premier league and he turned down Napoli QPR Tottenham etc just for us! Expected to be finalised midweek as he is already in newcastle as we speak. Please post your drivel elsewhere.

is it me but the way am reading this colo wants us to grant him a free to leave to the team his dad works at so they can pay him his wages if its true he wants to go....??
Believable4
Unbelievable0
I like colo but he signed a four year contract. we need to sell him for what he's worth so we can buy a replacement not give him away. is this to make his father look good. well tough (mag forever)
Agree6
Disagree0
It's not colo saying that, san lorenzo say they can give him good wages but can't afford a transfer fee.
they expect colo to buy himself out of his contract. which he can't do for another year as he signed a new contract 1 year ago.
Agree4

I believe this is what everyone is talking about first done my andy webster of hearts
"Article 17 of FIFA's Regulations for the Status and Transfer of Players is entitled "Consequences of Terminating a Contract Without Just Cause", and is the fifth article of Chapter IV, "Maintenance of Contractual Stability between Professionals and Clubs". It outlines the provisions which apply if a contract is terminated without just cause, and the requirement for the party in breach to pay compensation.[9] Specifically, it states that any player who signed a contract before the age of 28 can buy himself out of the contract three years after the deal was signed. If he is 28 or older the time limit is shortened to two years.[10][11] Article 17 was introduced in December 2004, with effect from 1 July 2005"
I think people forget Jonas did it it Mallorca to sign for us

What a stance from San Lorenzo.. 'We can't afford you and arnt gonna pay for a transfer, but we can pay your wages'
Is that not tapping our player up?
If you want him and if Colo does want to go because he's been a bad lad.

apparently we've got 3 players lined up to sign by monday. A cb, st, cm
CB my guess Tomkins, Mirin, Okre
ST my guess remy, aubameyang, gamiero
CM my guess sissoko, mvila,
from that list i would want
tomkins 4m
gamiero 5m
mvila 6m
cost up to 15m
Believable1
Unbelievable12
From that list i'd want:
Okore 4m
Isimat Mirin 3m
M'vila 7m
remy 9m
23m spent
Agree12
Disagree3
We won't anyone else
Agree5

M'vila is worth £10 million +, I think a more creative midfielder to cover Cabaye, rather than get another DM.
Agree2
Disagree3
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang quoted on tv he ain't leaving this January. Maybe in the summer but he claims to have had contact with both Man you and city.
Agree4
Disagree3
Tomkins/Mirin/Okre and Remy/Gamiero are what we need. We won't get Aubameyang cos he's said he won't leave. Sissoko or MVila would be good but I've seen reports saying Sissoko either won't leave or go to Scumderland and MVila will probably go to QPR or Arsenal.
Agree2
Disagree3
We need:
Mirin 4m
Remy 9m
Sissoko (spelling?) 3m
Okore 4/5m
PEA 7m
Total 27/28m
We need but we won't get :-(
Agree5
Disagree2
I think newcastle will cash in on tiote in the summer hence the move for sissoko or m'vila
Agree4
Disagree2
M'villa is a defensive midfielder, is so cabs can play as more of an art king mid
Agree4
Disagree3
Sissoko £3.5m
Remy £10m
Centre Back you tell me, Mirin, Douglas, Yanya M'Bwia, Alderwield?
Agree1
Disagree2
The way tiote's been playing I'd sell him and take M'Vila as a replacement. He's more reliable and doesn't do as much of the stupid things tiote does
Agree3
Disagree0
Mvila has been dropped to youth team a couple of times and don't forget ben arfa at one point at marsille was worth 35m and how much did we sign him for, 5.5 MILLION SO M'VILA DEAL COULD GO THROUGH FOR 6 OR 7 MILLION!!!!
Agree0
Disagree0
Any 2 from Mirin/M'Biwa/Alderwield would be great Douglas not so much. From what I've heardhe's as bad as tiote
Agree1

Tompkins has been valued at 10mil apparantly

Just been browsing the net and found that we seem to
Be interested in signing jores okore of nordjsaelland.
I have seen him a few times andi thought he was class.
It says he would be available for around 5 million.
He is a good young cb that has already had champions
League and international experience.

I thought Man Utd were interested in him.

Hopefully true....apparently newcastle representatives met with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang agents Friday over a possible move. May be rubbish as it was reported he won't be sold in January the other day. You never know though. Sure to get ridiculed for this post, but gotta keep the faith that the club are doing everything they can to bring in a top striker as well as one or two cb. Hopefully the new striker won't be a poor suprise like shefki kuqi
Believable5

Not sure about this. I would still prefer remy tbh but then again he is something different and it is a player we need. West ham have told Carlton cole he can leave. Does anyone think we would bid for him?
Agree0

I hope not! Carlton Cole is woeful. We need a pacy striker.

I have no doubts we will consider Cole...he's free isn't he... right up Ashley's street!!
