Wishful thinking, but I'd like to see N'Zogbia (£10m?) and Smith (any £ is good!) moved on and with these coming in...

 

Ebanks-Blake or Doyle

Kyle Naughton

Elano

Jimmy Bullard

 

Think these players could offer us a lot and they are realistic targets.

 

Are we already in the championship?  ffs

 

Did everton say that when they signed Cahill? Did they fuckers.

 

Or Jagielka? or Lescott?

 

lol

 

Im not saying dont sign anyone from the championship, Im saying those players with Zog gone would be a championship squad. Bullard and Elano both have premiership experience but man city and Fulham dont want them, both of whom are teams we should be competing with this season (not standing man citys new year spending spree). So buying players not good enough for them doesnt make sense to me. Elano has been good for man city, then again mido was for spurs, yes they can afford to replace him with a top drawer player, but until now they havent had the opportunity, and hes done f*** all to make them want to keep him.

 

Disagree with everything you have said.  Our side minus Zog is a championship one already then by your words.  I believe we need depth to our squad and we need it NOW.  We have some of our better players on long term injuries and only kids who are not good enough yet (if ever) to step in.  Firstly, Fulham don't want rid of Bullard, they said he can go if they can't meet his wage demands. Elano has fallen out of favour with Hughes over personal issues (from what I can see) and he was a dangerous player for them last season.  Plus Man City don't have to settle for keeping Elano as they have so much money they can buy whoever is willing to come for silly wages.  Bit different from the angle of "they aren't good enough for them" that your trying to create.

 

Mido hasn't been suggested, so again your picking a bad example and trying to pin it on a different set of players with different circumstances.  Also, are you saying you'd prefer to keep what we got instead of adding Elano and Bullard to the mix? - Sorry but I don't see how our current midfield is better than not having Bullard & Elano in it to pick from.

 

And please, suggest 4 players you think we can sign like I requested.  If your going to criticise my choices at least have the balls to lay your cards on the table.

 

I already did a long way back in this thread and i stick by it. Bullard has gone on record as saying he will take a cut in wages to stay at Fulham. Elano is not wanted by man city, theyve struggled for goals this season with Jo being slow to settle and still he hasnt featured. My point is to improve the squad, swapping zog for bullard or elano is not imo improving the squad, nor is signing untested players for a potential relegation battle. Im saying id rather keep zog than bring in two lesser players.

 

If your aware that Bullard has said he is willing to take a pay cut to stay now, why were you making out that the he wasn't good enough for Fulham and they wanted rid? 

 

You have suggested we get..

 

"Pennant

Sol Cambell

Crouch

Micah Richards

Risse"

 

Do you really think that Riise will leave a Champions League side to join a relegation battle? do you also believe that Man City would give up one of their brightest defensive prospects in Micah Richards? Crouch would cost us £12m to £15m and do we really need Sol Campbell? he is 34 now, would rather have Bassong and Coloccini ahead of him.

 

Your suggested transfers would cost around £40m to £50m if we could even get them as I can't see Crouch or Richards being cheap.

 

And why do you love Zog so much? yes he is fast, but how many assists and goals is he picking up? - not much.  He is a sulky person who has already gone on record saying he wants out, yet you want to keep him?

I would take Bullard in an instant, wouldn-t cost too much either.

Elano disappears in games too much and is too lightweight for me.

I wouldn-t mind Konchesky either, he hasn-t got worse just plays in a crap team (aswell).

Bring in heskey for 2 million to accompany owen and we are assured goals.

Around 10 to 12 million for this lot. If we can persuade wenger to swap zoggy for walcott then that would be OK aswell...ha...ha

 

From memory, the best I saw of Elano came early last season.  I don't know if he has not been as good since then, but I'd have him here as he is far better at attacking than any other centre midfielder we have here.

 

Bullard would be great too, him and Barton or Guthrie would be great.  We need someone who can cause havoc with free kicks, not Nicky Butt taking them!

Konchesky isn't a bad shout.  To be honest, re-signing Aaron Hughes isn't a bad one either given his form for Fulham this year.  I'd prefer this Naughton chap from Sheff Utd, lots of praise and can play on both flanks.  Very young too.

 

In all fairness to Butt, he has done quite well on his free-kicks.

 

How many has he scored?

Elano had a great start at Citeh but after that we haven't seen much of him. He's a better player, I agree.

peter lovenkrands is out of contract at schalke at the end of the season, and he's had a major fallout with their management, so he's going to be looking for first team football, he's only 28 too, would be a good addition to our squad along with mendes

 

being a dane so i have seen him quiet alot! not good enough. 1 good match 15 bad

So who are we actually linked with?  The last 5 pages have been all suggestions and no rumours.

 

An anonymous attacking midfielder who will cost £10m+. The deal is 80% done according to nufcblog mackems.gif

 

I almost forgot about that joke of a site.

 

I guess I should be nicer.  I know the dude Ed means well (I try not to knock anyone doing anything good for NUFC) but his quality of journalism is just so lacking it's not even funny.  He's posting rumors as truths and that shit can't fly.  He just needs to up the professionalism of the site and weed his news stories a bit better, could be a quality site.

Magpies are keen on Modise'

 

Newcastle United are reportedly interested in snapping up the services of midfield maestro Teko Modise.

 

The Bafana Bafana international is catching the eye of a number of European clubs, with AEK Athens and West Bromwich Albion already voicing their admiration of the 26-year-old.

 

And the Sowetan reports that United have already approached Modise's agent, Jazzman Mahlakgane, with a view to signing the Orlando Pirates star at the end of the season.

 

The Magpies are tipped to trump West Brom to the player's signature according to the newspaper's sources.

 

Modise has already stated he will only consider leaving South Africa after the Confederations Cup and St James' Park may seem like the perfect destination.

I've never heard of the player, never heard of his country, and never heard of his club.

 

Maybe I'm just ignorant, but :lol:

 

EDIT: OK, figured out that Bafana Bafana is just a word referring to the South African national team now.

The Record reports it would take £2.5mil to get Barry Ferguson. I don't think he's good enough, but if JFK wants him, and we can't stretch to £2.5mil then thats pretty worrying.
