SUPERTOON Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I think we'll try again for Warnock, break our transfer record on a striker or playmaker and sign a few unknowns, 4 players in max I reckon. Wish i had your optimism Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Apparently Leicester have rejected a £5m bid from Us and a host of other clubs for Joe Mattock. Looked decent when i saw him (the once) heard a lot of people raving about him, but £5m for a club in League one, and rejected, stupid cunts....if true.

You could get a fair few very good players for league one with that money, not to mention the fact his price can only drop as no one is going to pay more than 5m for a player playing in league one.

To be honest I don't think it's completely about the money. It's about showing the fans that the club wants to keep it's better players and compete at the top of the league. At Scunthorpe, nobody cared about the millions we got for Sharp and Keogh - we wanted to keep them. Didn't help club relations one bit.

Dokko Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Fuking hell £10m. said when he moved to Sheff Utd we should have got him, excellent cover for Owen, he'd be knocking em in in the prem for us, growing in stature every week imo.

James Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10278~1378964,00.html KEVIN Keegan is confident that he will have bolstered his black-and-white ranks by the time Monday's transfer deadline slams shut at midnight. The Toon boss revealed at his pre-match press conference ahead of the Arsenal game that the Magpies have four or five "irons in the fire" with at least two of those "quite a way down the line". "I would think we've got a very good chance of getting three or four players in," the United boss replied when asked if he expected to bring in new faces following the completion of James Milner's move to Aston Villa on Friday. "The money (from Milner's transfer) will be available to me. "But the money was there to buy players even if we did not sell James Milner. "We're looking for three or four to bring in and I think we'll get them. "We have four or five irons in the fire with two of them quite far down the line." But Keegan is determined to add only real quality to his squad while also revealing that he has emerged from Wednesday's meeting with owner Mike Ashley in a very positive frame of mind. "We had a great meeting on Wednesday," he added. "The owner is absolutely committed to this club. "But Mike Ashley can only give us the finance, we have to get the right players in. "It's now a case of getting that quality in before Monday. "You got lets of offers of players at this time of year but the secret is to pick the right ones. "If you're going to let players go you have to make sure you replace them with quality. "No-one will argue that the ones we've got in so far are quality. "They are players who care and put the shirt on and do a real good shift for the club. "But we are in a great position at this club because we have not got any deadwood. "Some clubs are looking to move five or six on but we're now just looking to add to our squad." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
