madras Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Glad we have signed someone, given the guessed fee I'm hoping this boy has the talent. I've heard of him before through the Spiderman thing from scoring, but can't recall watching a full match with him in. Some promising comments about him if you google the lads name though. Just pleased this will shut up some of the "OMGZ LYK DER IS NO SIGNINGS, OMG SACK THE BOARD". Signing came in with no rumours before hand, kinda shows that most rumours are total s****. Roll on the next signing... TBH I think the more mature dicussion has been coming from those on the 'impatient' side of things. It's the others that have been posting crap like this in response. They even resort to administrators of this very forum starting gloating "i told you so" threads, after 1 signing that no one know much about ! There have been a few very good posts from people such as TT and and mrmajorism (sp?) about the need to break the cycle of panic buying by being proactive in the transfer market and making early moves, if you chose to interperate that as OMG panic panic panic, then so be it. Don't take anything ShiteaM says literally, we all know he's either a WUM or completely insane. As always, I think the more "mature" or "reasoned" discussion has come from those on the fence, who don't give the same type of answer to every single story/piece of news of a similar nature. There's been crap from both sides, from what I've seen... as well as "very good posts" at times, I should hasten to add. dunno like...i've been right all along. Aye, that's a given though mate! nooo. you were supposed to ask what my line was then i'd reply that i'd forgot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, because didn't Keegan say the South Americans thing himself, during that interview with Mick Lowes? He never said he wouldn't sign any. "I'm less keen on South American players coming into this country, that doesn't mean we won't get any but it's a big move for them. I would prefer to sign players with Premier League experience.

For a start, by Newcastle’s standards (Marcelinho, Luque, Enrique), this guy will be another laughing stock in the Titus Bramble bracket. Almost a gurantee that the t*** hasn't seen him play too. No doubt going by the fact that Boss Nass didn't play him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAK Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Good stuff, heard of the player never seen him play though. Hopefully will turn out to be a good signing and the first of many this transfer window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 He has the main attribute to deal with the PL that alot of foreigners don't, and that's pace. Based on that i don't think he'll be a flop like Luque etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we've got another signing lined up (which wouldn't surprise me, if we're going about it this way, ie no leaks to the media) - then he'll probably of 'Premiership origin'. If those comments are anything to go by, anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Its one signing, that looks like it has been done on the cheap, its nice to get someone through the doors, but we've a lot of work to do. So lets not pretend we've won the lottery or found that final piece of jigsaw which has been long missing down the back of the couch, because in truth, half the puzzle is still missing.

Consortium of one Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Its one signing, that looks like it has been done on the cheap, its nice to get someone through the doors, but we've a lot of work to do. So lets not pretend we've won the lottery or found that final piece of jigsaw which has been long missing down the back of the couch, because in truth, half the puzzle is still missing. A starts a start though. ^^^^^This. Looks to be a decent signing and I'm curious to see what the final fee was. We need more but hopefully this is the dominoe that tips over a few more. Like a lot of others have said, it's cool to see this happen under the media's radar. And since they haven't been referenced yet... I guess Spurs didn't want him?

I won't judge whether the transfer window has been a success until it shuts, but that's my way of doing things. We have plenty of time to nail some more signings, just hope they all turn out to be decent ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Is this a Keegan or a Jimenez/Vetere organised transfer? The Spanish links suggest Vetere may suggested the player, but the question is - does it matter how it was arranged as long as Keegan is happy?
