I also have trouble differentiating you and a prick.

Kinda odd that Man City are haggling over the full payment, when transfer fees are usually paid over the length of the player's contract nowadays.

Bramble and Heskey in the same team. Hutchings is a genius. I don't think I will be able to tell who's playing up front and who's at the back.

Bellamy vs Blackburn. Hughes/Viana/Ameobi combine down the left for Viana to send in a peach of a cross for Bellamy to slot home first time. Slickest football I've seen us play, one touch football all round.

Yes and yes.

Barton is a good and more all rounded player than Parker and we're making a profit out of these two deals. I have to say I'm suitably pleased. Having said that, he IS a headcase and lunatic so there's always a worry but I'm more happy than not.

I feel like I'm living in dreamland... Out Bramble/Roeder/Parker/Shepherd/Moore/Dyer... hopefully Carr/Babayaro/Ramage/Ameobi to follow as well... In Mike Ashley/David Dein/Sam Allardyce/Joey Barton/Viduka/Ben Haim/Leighton Baines/ and many more Would be elated if all this happened.

And Viduka up top on his own I suppose? We'd be rubbish. Asamoah Gyan is one player. Add: anyway since we're having silly season... this would be my dream midfield quartet. Duff Lucho Gonzalez Alou Diarra Arteta I think Arteta would be better on the right than in the middle. ps - Lucho Gonzalez is one player, Alou Diarra as well, before someone thinks its a 6 man midfield.

Please let this happen. I said weeks ago when the takeover thing started that I'd love to see Dein in as chairman/CEO. This Mike Ashley fella is really winning me over.

Scholes and Butt as our CM, we'll win more games than not next season. Scholes pisses all over Lampard any day of the week. Absolute dynamite of a player. Saw his passing stats from the other thread as well, which is incredible - over 2000 passes at 90+% accuracy, and he doesnt only do Makelele style passes. Amazing.

Had Viduka and Diego Swarfega listed when I saw it. I don't watch portugese league but did catch Lucho in action in the CL and for Argentina.

If you think he is impossible to get whats the point in banging on about him? Erm, to educate people? On a side note, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcastle_United_F.C.#Current_squad this tbh.

Another player which could possible do a job is Van Bommel. Bayern's having a summer clearout and if he's available then we should be in for him. Good player.

great player. Not a typical CAM but more of a box to box player who is creative, but doesnt stay high on the pitch and lurk behind the strikers Good appraisal. Pretty much sums him up. Very good passer, and packs a good shot. Makes late runs into box and scores a fair few. Would love to see him in a toon shirt.

Lucho Gonzalez people, Lucho Gonzalez. He's all we look for in a midfielder. Impossible to get though.

Fernandes also works in the EPL while the other guy is an unknown gamble. Captains Porto ffs... over 30 caps for argentina... great technique with hell of a shot on him. Unknown gamble... Has he played in the EPL? No, thats what i meant and he would be a gamble until we've seen him here. Shevchenko & Veron, those two should emphasize my point beautifully Gamble yes, unknown definitely not. The point here is, with class players, they're more likely to succeed than not. While people like to point out the likes of Shevchenko and Veron, they're part of the minority few world class stars that didnt impress here. For every one failure there's 2-3 success stories but no one ever brings them up. And we're not even talking about figures close to the 30m that each of these two cost. To emphasize my point Essien Ballack Ronaldo Alonso Mascherano Tevez Berbatov Drogba list goes on... Didnt stop Man Utd from spending over 50m on Hargreaves, Anderson, and Nani. 3 'unknown' 'gambles' by your standards.

If we're getting anyone in from the portugese league it has to be Lucho Gonzalez imo. Way better player than Fernandes.

I've always said Berbatov was a skinny version of Viduka. Definitely a good signing on a free.

If true, I'll love to see us go for Lucho Gonzalez as a replacement. Cracking player whenever I've seen him with Porto. Him and Barton in the middle could be good.

Give it to Taylor. It would mean the world to him and you just know that he would not let anyone down.

He's finished as a player and not good enough for us anyway. Apparently.

I was under the impression that he's on a free this summer. Must be mistaken then.

Didnt stop the Italian FA from stripping Juventus of their title.

I think Shearer should coach abroad to gain experience, preferably under a top european boss. He'll learn more about the tactical and technical aspects of the game on the continent.
