1878 Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Telegraph feature lists "best buys" in 2009 for Premiership clubs. Five former NUFC players make the list: Bowyer, Duff, Bellamy, Bassong, and N'Zogbia. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/premierleague/6916859/Premier-League-transfers-complete-club-by-club-guide-for-the-January-window.html BEST BUY OF 2009: Sylvain Distin (£5 million). Drafted in to replace Joleon Lescott, the Frenchman has slotted in seamlessly alongside Joseph Yobo. Funny, I could have sworn he's been shit and that his partnership with Yobo is like the Chuckle Bros on ice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 That whole article is pretty ill-researched. £6 million for Espinoza? Nah mate, I'm pretty sure it was a nominal fee and he was mainly brought it to be chums with Benitez. He's listed Huseklepp as a Zenit player aswell asmanaging to merge Yebda and Belhadj into one person. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Seems we are loaning FM legend Keirrison to Zaragoza until the end of the season. His time at Benfica seemed a waste. I wondered why he never went to a lower La Liga club in the first place like, do you think he could turn out to be more wasted money? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered why he never went to a lower La Liga club in the first place like, do you think he could turn out to be more wasted money? The Benfica loan is a bit silly, we had offers from lower clubs that would have guaranteed him more playing time, but it was preferred that he went to a higher profile club that played in Europe. There was a rumor that we were cozying up with Benfica to get an option for De María though, but if we are recalling him I assume that's not true. I'm not going to dismiss the guy before he has hardly kicked a ball, but at this moment, spending €15m on a guy that was always going to be loaned out was utterly stupid given that we still have problem areas in our squad that need addressing.

Nzonzi £1.5m? Mokoena £300k? Beattie was Stoke's worst signing? This is fucking mental reading Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is zero chance of us going down I agree with you that we shouldn't sell him, especially to them, but blaming Moyes for the situation we're in is daft. Plus, it's only a rumour at the moment.
