Skirge Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I doubt very much that Reyes would come back to England, he hated it here not just his mother but also how about him being over priced and over rated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I doubt very much that Reyes would come back to England, he hated it here not just his mother but also how about him being over priced and over rated. People change though. He was only young then and living with his mom who was whinging everyday about returning to Spain. Real also wanted him at the time and he thought he would do great there, but it hasn't since he returned to Spain really. If he has grown up and is now happy to return, and come to Newcastle, then I wouldn't be against it in the least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Well the Scum are 100% after him but I have not heard a thing about us looking at Malbranque, would be funny though just to stuff them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 "Steed" would be a decent acquisition, can unlock a door, good passer, Prem experience, gets a few goals, can play a few positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Steed's a good player, but it's such a conservative, safe and basic move. It would be a lazy signing. Hoping we have something a bit sexier lined up than Malbranque. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Malbranque would be a good signing if we're struggling to get genuine quality in in the attacking midfield role, he's someone that's good enough to push us on to a European place without costing the earth, that way we could spend the money we had put by for Modric when we're in a position to attract better.

Hoping we have something a bit sexier lined up than Malbranque. In my opinion we'll struggle to find a better player this summer than Malbranque. I really rate him. fully agree, very good player and will be a major coup if the mackems get him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest want_nufc_to_be_big_club Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 He we'll be extremely stupid if he joins the scum. From a club fighting for top 6 to a team fighting to avoid relegation. Good player though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I think Malbranque would be a class signing. Still at a good age aswell, 28. No sell-on value but he's probably at the top of his game at the moment. Would certainly give us plenty of options aswell. Malbranque/Gutierrez wing combination; could be mint.

Coxaux Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 No, no, no. Very inconsistent player, disappears in games and when he does perform he's still nothing amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkhead Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Malbranque.. fuck no he's not bad by any means, but I don't think he'll improve us at all same goes for Reyes.. that'd be like signing Duff all over again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1878 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Malbranque.. f*** no he's not bad by any means, but I don't think he'll improve us at all same goes for Reyes.. that'd be like signing Duff all over again He wouldn't improve you? Eh? He's miles better than Duff, Emre & Milner. I'm surprised Spurs are letting him go and even more surprised that only Sunderland have made a firm offer.

Gallowgate End Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Malbranque.. f*** no he's not bad by any means, but I don't think he'll improve us at all He wouldn't improve you? Eh? He's miles better than Duff, Emre & Milner. I'm surprised Spurs are letting him go and even more surprised that only Sunderland have made a firm offer. I would agree with that to a certain extent. Thats if Keegan is going to use 4-4-2 next season which looks increasingly likely then N'Zogbia, Duff, Milner, Gutierrez would all be better options in the wide positions. However if Keegan has plans to use his System (4-3-3/Diamond) that was far more successful then I would suggest Malbranque gives us more options then Duff or Milner would. With the signing of Gutierrez though it looks like Keegan is buying for 4-4-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicago_shearer Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Although he can be an okay player we have enough for that type role, can we concentrate on the defence please. No, we don't. We have no attacking midfielders in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Wouldnt mind Malbranque here, he would be a usefull addition to the squad, certainly more creative than anything we have. Would be a good stop gap until we find a decent young playmaker willing to come here. Its more than likely bollocks to make the mackems think they outpipped us to a signing, making them feel better about themselves. Would be funny if we nabbed Malbranque and Chimbonda from under their noses though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Wouldn't mind Malbranque but we're already well-stocked in the position he plays. I don't think KK would be going for him unless we're letting two of Zog, Milner, and Duff go. Can't see him playing as a CM in a 4-4-2 either. Good player, but we've got more urgent problems.
