  1. It would only be worth bringing him back if we absolutely fleece Liverpool with the transfer fee, leaving them with their trousers down, and their cocks up their own arses.

     

    Ergo: For anything below or equal to 12m, I'd welcome him back with open arms.

     

    It's not worth looking like semi-mugs by paying 20m to bring him back, even if it's still significantly less than the original 35. He's not THAT good.

  2. Cannot praise this lad enough, what a cracking little footballer.

     

    Agreed :thup:

     

    With some footballers sometimes you just know they're going to be good. For me it's his maturity and awareness in that middle third. Looks like he's a veteran midfielder rather than a bairn.

     

    Not the finished article by any stretch, but if he's this good now, there's no limit to how far he could go if he develops in the right way. Good luck to the lad, and I hope we end up having a real special talent on our books for years to come.

  3. This transfer window has been pretty mundane so far, needs something to park it alight.

    The fella jumping out the window would have been perfect here

  4. Liverpool supporting mate today:

     

    "If Rodgers Brendan can get them to play so well after only 2 weeks of training, imagine how good we'll be this season. I think we will finish top 3".

     

    after watching the 1-1 draw with Toronto FC  :iamatwat:

  5. f***ing mental being so Blasé about Demba leaving.

     

    No you're right, we should all have a massive brain aneurysm if he leaves. Wtf can we do about it if he decides to exercise the clause? Shouldn't we as fans be prepared for any eventuality? Ba leaving NUFC wouldn't be as much of a problem, if he is replaced adequately. Goes without saying that if he goes and we're left with just Cisse as the top and only quality hitman, we're absolutely fucked.

  6. All he wants is goals, he'll likely play wherever if he feels hes doing himself justice. Cisse just took his limelight & his missed pen at Sunderland prob knocked his confidence.

     

    Fresh season again now, we've seen what the lad can do. He wont get his form back on the bench, we could have a ridiculous strikeforce with these two. Hopefully Pards sorts it out for the best.

     

    Ba and Cisse up front in a 442 could be absolutely lethal. I just don't think we have the personnel to play the 4 in midfield. If we do manage to snare Debuchy though, that would change as we'd have the correct balance. Wait and see.

  7. Can't quite understand the vitriol directed towards VaVaVoom and those who agree with his views. So f*** if that's what they think? People are coming across as knobs not accepting others' views tbh.

     

    For me July 31st can't come and go fast enough. Ba has given the illusion that he's nailed his flag to the mast, but even Pardew it seems isn't quite sure whether he'll have him for next season or not. I think our search for a striker (or two) is hanging in the balance until the Ba situation is finalized one way or the other. If the club wanted to keep him that badly they would have offered him a new contract that does away with this wretched clause. It seems that they are not fussed either way at the moment. I think Ba is a top top striker that we will struggle to replace, and I hope to f*** he stays. He holds the keys to his future though, and not NUFC, and it's not a situation I'm too comfortable with.

     

    He is advocating replacing Ba with Sammy Ameobi, can you honestly not see why he is getting stick?

     

    So what man? He's not saying Sammy is a better footballer in that. His point is that Sammy will be a lot happier (it seems) to play on the left, and will relish the role far more than Ba might. It's not a cut and dry situation.

     

    Ba's knees are also a lurking ghost that could put a monkey wrench in our season if the situation isn't addressed by finding a player or two that could cover for that possibility should we get to keep him.

    “Any big player or good player that comes to the table, we need to be involved in it,” Pardew told the Gazette.

     

    “We need to know what is going on. What is the price? Can we do it? Can we afford? If we can’t we go somewhere else.

     

    “We want the best quality players, and at the moment we have three possible transfers actively being pursued in terms of bids and trying to get a deal where the other club gets what they want and we get what we want.”

     

    Debuchy, Douglas and Anita?

     

    I still think we'll make 2 out of the blue acquisitions plus Debuchy. Really is unlike us nowadays to conduct our transfer activity in public.
