  1. I'm baffeled as to how watching yootube videos of a guy doing nothing but score goals could lead someone to the opinion that he's s***?

     

    "I refuse to believe what I'm seeing!" :lol:

     

    Err did I say he was s***??  :dontknow:

     

    You watched a video of him scoring goals then declared you think you could get someone better, which is confusing. I don't think you could and Newcastle should be bloody delighted if they get someone of Gameiro's level this summer.

     

    well its just that some of those goals look like scruffy  shots instead of clean strikes of a predatory striker. That is the impression that I get from watching the youtube video, could be wrong of course

     

    :lol: unbelievable! how about the other half which are thunderbolts or cheeky lobs?

  2. So hypothetically we spend:

     

    15m on Gervinho

    12m on Gameiro

     5m on Cabaye

     

    That's the 35m already spent, and the forward line seriously strengthened. With Abeid already signed it seems, I don't mind that being the cash outlay, with more coming in after some player sales (and a couple of freebies) provided they are not counter-productive sales.

  3. So let me summarise

     

    As of 27/5 at 7.45 it looks like

     

    1) we are about to lose 3 of last seasons most influential players in Jose Barton and Nolan

     

    2) our top 2 striking targets gervinho and Gameiro want other clubs

     

    3) weve signed an 18 year old lens reject

     

    What was that song by D:REAM

     

    UR THE BEST THING!?  :coolsmiley:

  4. Nice. Can never have enough of these kind of signings, nothing to lose.

     

    :thup: hopefully one or two will get a few places on the bench or the matchday squad this season. Aaron Spear, Yven Moyo, and this lad.

     

    I'm also hoping there's more to come from Vuckic, Kadar and Soderberg, as well as the host of local players like Richardson, Airey and McDermot.

  5. Defoe says he wants first team football, him and Demba Ba as our new strikeforce?

     

    :kasper:

     

    We could construct a better strikeforce with the players we have now, if they were fit.

     

    Yes, of course we could. You won't name them though, because they're just in your head.

     

    Defoe is better than all of our strikers, full stop.

     

    I'd rather have Best and Ben Arfa leading the attack than Jermain Defore and Demba Ba any day of the week.

     

    I suppose i've also dreamt up the fact that Defoe's managed a pitiful 4 goals this season in a team superior to ours. Time to do your research before spouting the same old rubbish.

     

    Rather have Defoe and Best up front with HBA right behind slipping through balls into them all day long
