How annoying. I like Altidore. What a summer this is turning into.

Dortmund cleaning up.

Lee Ryder @lee_ryder 3m
Would appear that #nufc are out of the race to sign Kone from Wigan. More in tomorrow's @EveningChron on striker search.
So..?
Out of the race
There was hardly a stampede for the guy. God, we're so rubbish.
-
Should this fella be signed he would be Best's replacement, finally. Quite an upgrade too. Still need to replace Ba though.
To you he very well maybe, but in reality ...
You think Best is better than Kone?
Or he thinks Kone wouldn't be Best's replacement?
Ah yes. Wasn't quite sure which part he was replying to.
Yeah, just not sure we'll sign more than one striker.
Just like the summer we got Ba on a free nice and early, and then didn't get the second striker we needed in.
Really annoying.
-
We were linked to Gomis under kinnear before... Coincidence?
Yeah, I was thinking that too. I remember that.

To be fair it seems we've at least cornered the market when it comes to asking. No one asks like us.

le10sport saying we've asked about Gomis
Hey Bafetimibi, loop me baby!
-
Isn't he about 30? Or have we chucked our age limit rules out the window?
-
Wonder if we could push it a little and see if Wigan accept £5m plus Ameobi? Could probably go to £7m plus Ameobi at a push.
-
What is this transfer rule people keep referring to!
The idea was not to spend significant amounts i.e. in fee and wages on players over 27 or whatever.
However, a bargain is a bargain. If you can get one who is proven and productive for a good fee and good wages, then I don't think we'd snub it.
That's how I understood it anyway.
-
He'd be a good short term fix if Pardew used him correctly. However i'm not sure i support blowing £5m on a player who is 30 in a few months time. Much rather he went to Everton and we stick with the plan.
Kone or Bent? Not sure about that either, neither option would be the best bet.
Blowing £5 million
Your worse than Llambiarse.
£5 million is nothing in today's market. It's still a value for money signing, at that price. He's got at least 3 decent seasons left. His wages also won't be high.
Two premiership clubs want him, his wages won't be cheap. There's nothing to suggest he'll be good at 32-33, most forwards who've relied on pace in their careers are nowhere near the level they've been at that age. Like I said good short term fix for next season at least, after that it'll be downhill, how quickly is anyone's guess.
Btw Is this just you sticking up for an African again? Can't have anything bad said about Africans can we.
You're so random man
His wages will be cheap relative to what we would have had to pay someone like Aubameyang for example.
The guy was a £2 million signing from Levante, and was at Wigan. His wages wouldn't have been significant, and so improving them won't take much.
I don't know about this African jazz your talking, but looking at Kone as an individual regardless of where he's from, he is a hell of an athlete, and I would fully expect him to still be very useful for another three season's at least.

Kone: "Hello, is that Mr. Kinnear?"
Kinnear: "Yes, speaking"
Kone: "I've signed for Everton"
Kinnear: "Okay, thanks for keeping us in the loop"

Great! This Ismael guy has jinxed it. Fantastic.

Oh look at us we've got a virile Mirallas, Jelavic and Anichebe. We're so cool. Gerrout!

Scott Wilson @Scottwilsonecho 10m
There's genuine #NUFC interest in Kone, but they've left it very late to try to do deal. Everton already done a large amount of ground work.
This don't sound like us
Hmmm ... this is a sign we put all our eggs in Aubameyang, and are now scrambling around for other solutions. Fantastic.
-
Kone would be a much better signing than Bent but I dont see how we can trump Everton.
Without Moyes there we're basically both mid-sized clubs with s*** chairmen. I think we might even be able to offer slightly more money.
(Beat Everton to Ba as well, didn't we?)
We wouldn't pay Ba the wages you were willing to, and, wouldn't include the release clause he joined Chelsea with either.
I would really rather we never blew a big chunk of our budget on a near 30yr old like Kone. So, if you pip us to him, I'm all for it
Cheeky.

I wouldn't mind having Kone, but isn't he a bit too similar to Cisse?
Ummm ... no. Stronger, quicker and better running at defenders with the ball, he will actually take players on.
Couldn't be more different really.
-
If Taylor is fit I still think Pardew will choose him ahead of Mapou every time.
Purely based on nationality, because Pards is dense.
-
What happened to us signing players with resale value? He'll be 30 in November.
Yeah but he costs 5 pence and his salary will likely be a pittance in comparison to others.
-
Would really like Kone and he provides a lot of things we don't have.
We do lack a black man with blonde hair, yes.
