wormy Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Confusing. Why compo if they sacked him? Thought you only had to pay for an U23 out of contract if his club had offered a good enough contract. But anyway, good cameo indeed. Still needs a loan, but hopefully he'll be helpful to us this season while we have no one else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I don't see why Wise would lie about having to pay £25k for Ranger in compo when guesting a Norwegian PL show tbh. Also said he bought Guthrie and turned down bids for Krul and Carroll. Said Ashley wanted to sell Carroll but Wise was adamant he had to stay as he thought he'd turn into an important player for Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I don't know why he would lie about that either I just don't know why it would be paid, as Wormy pointed out, I thought compensation was only due when the player turns down a fair contract offer.

wormy Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 It is a bit of a pointless debate But I don't think anyone really knows what's truth and what's fiction really. I wouldn't trust a thing any of them say about signing of players tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 He's mobile, which is such a good thing because all our other strikers are pretty immobile, except Carroll. He'll be able to offer something purely because he's got a bit of pace. I'd give him a start sooner rather than later and see what he's capable of because our other options - Ameobi, Lovenkrands and Best - aren't capable of much more, imo.

Kaizero Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Exact transcript: Host: "Newcastle they can bring on Nile Ranger, a striker that you know all about." Wise: "Yeah, I brought Nile Ranger. I think it was twenty-five thousand pounds from it was at Southampton and we paid compensation for him. He's done fantastically, young boy, he's got power, pace, knows where the goal is, you know. He's, he's developing you know. Probably needs a year in the Championship to, to, play a lot and he could end up being a joint force striker with Carroll you know." The typos are there as it's an exact transcript.

Ash Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Still nervous as fuck at times, needs to be a lot stronger but very impressive cameo imo. Made a big difference to our attacking options. Don't agree with that at all. He got Koscielny sent off due to his strength and did something very similar to Ivanovic today too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Don't think it's strength, more intelligence that causes him to lose the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got bossed off the ball by someone a lot smaller too today at one point. Don't get me wrong, he isn't Walter the Softy but he would improve if got a lot stronger. It will come though, like Carroll.

It was to Ramires who is a fair few inches shorter than him and quite a small frame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
