Figure of speech, he is obviously talking on an emotional level.. No your right he is talking shit.

will be even more shocked when we sign Remy and Carroll.

I don't think Pards is fully sold on Santon yet, wouldn't be surprised to see us after another LB in addition to a new RB. Most likely won't happen this window, but you never know. I forget how young Santon is though, so much time to get even better.

Never been particularly excited about Pieters but right now given Douglas turning up looking like Sol Campbell he might not be a bad option. Clearly wants to come, is friends with Krul and would give competition for LB and CB. Think he would be pretty motivated if he came, worried about his lack of pace but I don't think it is too bad.

Romain Amalfitano joins Dijon permanently for an undisclosed fee
toontownman replied to stozo's topic in Football
Boys got skills, like him. Will definitely need time to adjust and maybe bulk up a bit but I think, as mentioned, he might be better behind the striker or on the wing. -
Newcastle Utd 1 - 1 Olympiakos - 27/07/12 (NUFC win 4-4 on pens)
toontownman replied to morla84's topic in Football
Got shot down for saying it before, but the lad has to make an impact this season or he never will. Not so much so, as he showed some good skills in his cameos last year, but I feel the same with Sammy. He looked good behind the Ba last match but has been reasonably poor otherwise. Tavs, Bigi and Mehdi have all impressed though. Could be a fitness thing, but Vukic in particular just doesn't see to want it enough when he plays. -

Me too, can't say I am upset. -
West Ham agree fee in region of £15m with Liverpool for Andy Carroll
toontownman replied to Pilko's topic in Football
tbh, while I still hope we get a pacey winger/striker in preference to Andy. I will do a little happy jump if we sign Carroll back. -

Could maybe see Spuds going for him. -

Just rewording his answer to Liverpool's question of where he wants to go.. Next time.. "Would consider loan move to an English team that finished 5th in the league last year." "Would consider a loan move to a club with the letters N.E.W.C.A.S.T.L.E. in its name." -
Gaël Bigirimana rejoins Coventry on a permanent basis
toontownman replied to Fenham Mag's topic in Football
Raw but some great pieces of play that stood him in higher stead than most of the others on the pitch. Some great turns and spraying the ball around very nicely, intelligent passer. Just needs to learn with experience with diving in and being caught in possession sometimes. Quality prospect, no doubt. Looks a potentially fantastic signing. -

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz pretty awful game tbh. We look completely knackered and have done the past 20 minutes. -

Romain, Gosling, Saylor And then there's Obertan, who somehow is our man of the match so far imo. All over the pitch, using his head, nice passes, nice assist, not sure he knew much about it mind. No one has been particularly bad. Mini Tiotes has down ok, still raw but pretty decent. Biggest downside has been the slippery pitch and questionable reffing. How many 1st teamers are Olympiakos missing for this? They look weak. We havent played particularly inspiring stuff but we have been solid all round. -

it's a fucking sellout. -
Aye but he is not foreign, so not really worth the hype. Well that said he is Welsh, that counts right?

You don't want to know what skirge has planned for Marley if that happens...

Been with Blackburn since 2007, can't be far off applying for residency. Maybe I am being overly skeptical and he will commit to Canada now his "future has been sorted" as he said. Not convinced though.
-
Give it a week - Hoilett declares his interest in playing for England. Guaranteed to happen sooner or later.
-
Maybe, the upside is he might be more willing to be patient in working for his chance. Could see Douglas less patient.
-
Well it is a tough one but I think we should be buying someone that is better than both Saylor and Willo. Williams wouldn't be the worst choice but I don't think he will dislodge Saylor. Just being snobbish after the Douglas/Mbiwa links. Could still see us going back in for Pieters tbh.

Allergic to grass "embarrassing"

Not again, not particularly inspired by this link resurfacing. Upgrade on Willo but not Saylor. Like the Gouffran link though, getting back to adding a pacey striker that can play on the wings. Remy is pie in the sky, Gouffran is more likely.

toontownman replied to Pilko's topic in Football
Don't mind paying up to 13m for him. I'm with Skeletor, I don't value him more than 8m but given the situation and the current market on British players I don't think 13m is unreasonable. He will get back to his best here and is only 23. -

Aside from the fact it is the Mirror it sounds about right.
