I am shocked by this news, and absolutely saddened by the news.
He was a fantastic person and a brilliant footballer.
Absolutely awful news very saddening.
My condolences to his family and friends.
I think he has slightly more influence on those who are being signed, but still has to work within very tight criteria.
You are right though in regards to players being sold, it seems.
Pardew has stated that Enrique is holding out to see if a club that is going to be playing in the Champions League, next season, want to buy him.
It seems that Arsenal are quite interested in him at the moment.
3 very good signings and they have cost less than £5million in transfer fees.
That is good business!
They are decent players too.
Well done to the management and scouting team.
He is definitely making all the right noises, quite refreshing to hear that he wants to come back and play for us, so much.
The fact he told Cabaye to sign too, is awesome.
I didnt really take much notice of him to be honest, but from what other people have said, he seems to be a decent player.
If he is available on a free, and he sounds a decent enough player, then wouldn't be a bad signing.
