Guest firetotheworks Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I reckon the FA are keeping it sweet with 'Arry in case he becomes a massive success at spurs and they go back to appointing a shit, 'passionate', English, mans man, publicity hound coach.

Pilko Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I reckon we could well take advantage of City and West Ham's selling. City will be peddling some of the squad players that they don't need (or want to leave due to the massive buying). Elano, Mark Noble and Gelson Fernandes are 3 quality midfielders, and if we got any of those three I'd be thrilled. Hughes clearly doesn't rate Elano.

olliemort Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Toure hands transfer request in at arsenal Love to get him but dont think we will.I can see a few top sides outside the pl going for him.Was the transfer request accepted? Tbh, and i am going to take stick for this, we do not need Toure, we need a Samba type centre half who is a beast in the air to compliment the skills of Bassongs pace and Colos composure I would take Samba in a heartbeat,he would be a perfect foil for Colo.Hes big and strong just what we are lacking in the centre of defence.I think your right about Toure,hes a quality footballer but like Colo gets pushed around quite easily.So partering him with Colo wouldnt be ideal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 They'd also take a cut price for Johnson as he is having major off field troubles with alcohol. Worth the risk imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Barton I don't even consider him a Newcastle player tbh. His signing has just been a total and utter farce from start to finish, and he's responsible for only half of it. Injuries can't be helped but even going back to the £300k extra he forced us to pay on top of the fee. Just a joke from start to finish, wish we could just get him sold and start again.
