Dinho lad Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I remember being impressed by him when we played AZ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 If you accept the rumour that Ronaldinho may be willing to go to Man City, would Newcastle not want to try to sign him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I must say, even if some of the transfers don't come off, I'm hugely impressed by who the board and KK have tried to gone after so far. This is really punching above our level (atm) and showing some ambition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparta Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 1m£ for a backup LB, ok for me, although he is a ginger fucker, hes not a bad player (look at carr babayaro etc) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 If you accept the rumour that Ronaldinho may be willing to go to Man City, would Newcastle not want to try to sign him? As fantastic a player as he is, I'd be wary of signing him given that he's supposedly lost his love for the game and is a giant pisshead by all accounts.

This is really punching above our level (atm) and showing some ambition. Agreed. He spoke about bringing in 3 or 4 quality signings and if Modric is the quality of player he's talking about then it looks like we could be in for an exciting summer. 2 midfielders, a striker and a centre back will be the positions he's looking to fill with quality players IMO, a few young lads in other areas (LB, RB) depending on who leaves in the transfer window.

Thespence Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 .............................Mr Fantastic Beye...........The Thing........The Hulk.........Superman Silver Surfer..........Wolverine..........The Punisher ...............................Owen ..............Martins...................Captain America We might not get them all but with Ashley's money i think we've got a chance of at least a couple. Slight concerns over the temperaments of The Hulk and Wolverine but Keegan has a good record of working with 'problem' players so i think they're worth the risk. And i realise the inclusion of Captain America might not be to everyone's liking but he's got a fantastic engine. If the coaches can improve his technique in front of goal he could be a real threat. Captain America with his trusty shield is a CB in the Rio mold.You have also got the Punisher who is a old skool fullback mixed up with Superman who is an out & out left winger.

juniatmoko Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 How about Wes Brown or Michael Carrick then? Any new news? Players on their way out of Real Madrid: * Javier Saviola * Mahamadou Diarra * Roberto Soldado * Royston Drenthe * Gonzalo Higuaín higuain would be massive... i prefer him much more than hunteelar (which i felt another dirk kuyt) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Modric going to Spuds is a real kick in the balls for us. KK is clearly looking for a play maker & quality is hard to come by. It is disappointing as we thought we had a chance & look like we've been used again. If Deco is up for grabs I think we'd be used again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players on their way out of Real Madrid: * Javier Saviola * Mahamadou Diarra * Roberto Soldado * Royston Drenthe * Gonzalo Higuaín Roberto Soldado is an animal. Strong and can test defender's resolve. Good player and would be a nice backup for our current strikers. Still quite young too if I recall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
