McClaren just wants to emulate his `Boro Waffa cup run and play four strikers at once. To be fair, we have been crying out for a depth of strikers. No reason we cant keep Cisse and sign these two, if we are prepared to go 3 up top or 4-4-2

I stand corrected you are right. First thing he did. Move was apparently set in stone til he came in.

Would be totally our club all over. Why Pardew vetoed his move no-one knows. Clearly would have been great for us last year.

Injury sweepstakes? That is really an embarrassment of an article in so many ways. Mindless, lowest form of intelligence and insulting to be honest.

Are we linked or just wishful thinking ikon, saw Lacazette wants a move.. Certainly better clubs interested but worth one last try. We definitely need someone with pace and power upfront.

Wait is this the Lascelles thread or the Shawcross thread?

But can it look up?

Anderlecht pissing on our chips.. http://www.football-italia.net/69003/anderlecht-mitrovic-still-open?

That was nearly a week and a half ago. Oh meant not in the squad tonight for the others.. seen all the others in pics. Just no Marveaux all week.

Not in the squad, not pictured training all week. Either picked up a knock or is off. No Cabella, Colo or Taylor either for what its worth.

You got your wish... http://www.sportsvibe.co.uk/news/football/newcastle-on-the-verge-of-landing-dutch-defender-41785/?

Anything to appease the nightmares of managing and supporting the Mackems.

Agent in Newcastle, player not. Weird. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-united-transfers-aleksandar-mitrovics-9632169?

lol far too thin. Plus no sexual gestures as he walks, can't be him.

Haven't seen Marveaux in any training pics this week tbf. Even Gabby and Gouffran got their ugly mugs in shot.

Hoping this is part of the new PR front.. a collection of free videos on youtube after Newcastle World subscribers get first chance to see them. Its a smart move, not least with so many videos getting ripped and distributed anyway.

Sir Les trying not to blink. They will sell come the end of the window, likely for less than 15m, no way he is staying put. Spending 15m abroad can buy you a lot more talent than Austin. Clubs will be thinking it might well be worth the gamble going for someone younger that doesn't have premiership experience but far greater potential.

If you think there are more than a handful of professionals these days that aren't you are misinformed. If its not the players it's their agents. Every player at our club would be off to a bigger club if they came calling, every one.

This thread is becoming a mackem-esq obsession. Glad is he gone, but could care less what he does somewhere else now other than against us, which is natural. Regardless of how good or shit managers are, some positions can just work for people, it was never going to work here, most of us knew that from day one, its also no surprise things started well for him at Palace with a good squad and fans completely on board with him being a club leg-end. I don't know any Newcastle fan that didn't see him as a charlatan but I wasn't surprised he clung on so long here given this was his big club opportunity, regardless he is not our problem anymore. History tells us he will likely default to shitness like he has everywhere else after a good start. Anyways, the thread just comes off as sour grapes and an embarrassment to me. Get over it.

Think it depends what they assess from our current squad. I think McClaren's quotes about the next three windows being important means the 6 or 7 we need are going to be spread out. Those four seems to be priority.. with another CM or Striker being the fifth.

...and how did Marveaux get out of the creative player isolation corner. Send him back immediately.

I like the idea of the controlled information, it makes sense on many levels. However, like pretty much everything our club do its done in the most unprofessional and shortsighted way. We make the simplest of tasks a PR cock up.

To be fair, while it might hinder his game time having new players, it will lessen the pressure of expectation and give him a chance to grow. Still think he will get some decent minutes, he is mint.

Liking this tbh. Mitrovic Cisse Cabella SDJ Wijnaldum Aarons Marveaux Perez Sissoko Tiote Abeid Vurn Haidara New New Janmaat Dummet Colo Lascalles New Krul Darlow Excess: Bigi, Kemen, Vuckic, Colback, Riviere, Obertan, Williamson, Ferguson, Armstrong, Elliot, Woodman, Good, Heardman, Smith, Sterry, Gillesphey We are also after another winger at least on top of the five suggested above. Would expect Sissoko and maybe Cabella to be out the door, possibly Marveaux, Abeid and the forest lads back out on loan.

Moot point, both players will be deployed on the right wing anyway! I've always thought of DeJong like a quicker more talented version of Nolan. Think he will sit just behind the striker. Would expect Moussa and Winjaldum to be told to play deeper..or and I'm only half kidding, pushed out wide.
