Heard it on a few Newcastle forums that his agent has said he has already agreed personal terms at least I am not the 1st person to hear this probs be total rubbish but a lot of ac players want out van bommel already gone thiago silva wants away we should also try el shaarwry looks class

Doesn't seem like our type of player. Too selfish and wasteful with the ball. I think Pardew wants ball-players throughout the team so we can control possession more next season.
