Llambias wouldn't negotiate directly with McClaren and it wouldn't be up to McClaren to reject the bid anyway.

Seriously. "Chairman: Joop Munsterman". Straight off Wikipedia/Twente. Took me 5 seconds.
A little effort next time would be greatly appreciated.

FC TWENTE owner is not like English owners he allows Steve mclaren to have his say and I guess if Newcastle play there normal game he is worth 10 million we will offer 5 game of corse they will just say go home your wasting ours and your time

McClaren said yesterday that NUFC would have to pay stupid money for De Jong - but the key phrase that everyone keeps skipping past is the bit where he says "if it were up to me". The fact is that its NOT up to him and I'd guess from the fact that he even said it, that he has very little influence at all. Basically he's just ensuring that the Twente fans know that De Jong is being sold against his wishes.

The douglas deal being on is just a media rumour as well we never said we were interested in signing him still so congrats for one of biggest lies so far and we've seen some whoppers, and as everyone has said mcclaren will have no say in what happens with the players and the money, plus where you there at the meeting?
Agree0
Disagree0
Yeah but we wouldn't fly out to offer them £5 million when that can be done via fax.

We already offered 8 million which was rejected

Mclaren will be doing the translating he speaks fluent Dutch that sounds very similar to English with a pants Dutch accent!

How are you surprised if we could afford him? Newcastle are one of the most financially stable clubs in the premier league, not like other big teams who are loaded with debt duet silly transfer prices and ridiculous wages!

You mean the "silly prices" and "ridiculous wages" that you are proposing Newcastle will easily give DeJong? Non-starter.

Newcastle are confident of swinging a deal for De Jong by tableing a straight forward cash bid. Unlike most clubs who pay a fee over a period of time.
Believable5
Unbelievable3
Since ashley came we have allways paid cash upfront just like chelski and man city...
Agree6
Disagree2
Edd have you heard that since ashley came we pay for players upfront just to confirm if its true or not...thanks {Ed001's Note - there are no longer long term payment terms under Ashley. He doesn't want payments on the never never hanging over the club's head, that was what caused Pompey all their problems.}

Derek Llambias and secretary Lee Charnley are in Holland today, in an attempt to progress a bid for Luuk De Jong.
Their story i just read suggests that Newcastle are increasing their bid from £8m to £10m.
I hope they get this right lads!!

Also think douglas involved in the deal they are doing come on the lads

OH I hope so, this lad has the lot and would demolish PL defences.

Debuchy STaylor Collo Santon

I'm a bit worried about this. He looks a good player but only at finishing and hold up play, which Cisse can do noticeably better. He also wouldn't fit into a 4-3-3, so we would most likely be playing 4-4-2 and we didn't look as creative in the latter. I think he's a good player, but not for 10 million. With our scouts we could probably pick up someone better.

Whats the latest with debuchy ed?.. Also de Jong and co? {Ed002's Note - Newcastle have made a second bid for Debuchy but I suspect he and Lille are waiting to see what other options exist. Certainly Inter are very interested. Valencia have also shown an interest after the Van Der Wiel situation finally stalled. Chelsea, AC Milan, Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Palermo have also shown varying degrees of interest since the January window. Chelsea have been struggling to strike a deal for Azpilicueta and are looking at Piszczek but with Real MAdrid also interested could look to Debuchy again.
De Jong is interesting clubs clubs from Italy, Germany and England. Interest has been shown by Dortmund, Liverpool, Spurs, Hamburg and Lille and now we are seeing bids being made by Borussia Monchengladbach and Newcastle. It has been suggested to me that Lazio are looking to Luuk De Jong as a replacement for Tommaso Rocchi.}

Its on Sky Sports now that Llambias and co. travelled down to Holland to try and tie up the deal for both De Jong and Douglas
