BONTEMPI Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Newcastle United have emerged as the most likely club to land Javier Saviola from Real Madrid on a six-month loan deal, after Portsmouth manager Tony Adams ruled out a move for the 27-year-old earlier today. Speaking to Setanta Sports, Adams said: 'Sometimes it can take six months to a year to get to know the pace of the Premiership so, when I'm looking for players, I'm looking at players with a certain fitness level to start with. 'That's maybe why I'm not taking him [saviola]. I've not pursued it - I've looked at over 150 players in the last two and a half months.' With Michael Owen out for at least six to eight weeks due to injury, the Magpies are desperately seeking reinforcements, and it has now emerged that they are keen to bring the Argentine speed-demon, who is affectionately called 'The Rabbit' to the Premiership. Maybe but maybe bollocks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Has Wise just woke up and said "oh right, f***, it's nearly February" It doesn't matter, if he gets Nolan, Taylor, and Veloso he's done his job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatwax Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 For comedy value it'd be amazing if we signed Nolan on the 'gentlemans agreement' that we stand aside so that they can get Veloso. The deal goes through and the next day when Megson is on the plane flying over to Portugal he looks out of the window to see a crassly decorated Sports Direct jet with Mike Ashley winking at him out of the window, big fat cigar in his sausage fingers and his other arm around Veloso.
