D Welbeck

D Meyler

L Cattermole

M Turner

F Campbell

 

Newcastle have out:

 

D Gosling

S Taylor

A Smith

A Carroll

R Taylor

H Ben Arfa

 

Now I know you're a Mackem and basic maths is hard for you but 6 is more than 5!

They're sounding fairly convinced it's a fait accompli on FiveLive right now.

 

 

im a regular listener to five live and am often ammused how thier semantics on stories change to align with the reality over the day.

NQDP must have missed all the derby day talk from Mackem land where it was all about what a better squad they had and how they were going to exact revenge on us. Now we have the stronger squad and they are injury ravaged (despite us having more players out at the minute than them).

 

That, quite frankly, is a lie.

 

You're missing Carroll and Ben Arfa from you're best XI through injury. We have almost an entire team missing.

 

That's not the point though. The point is that £30m for someone who has had six good months in the PL is absolutely outrageous - I take the point that Ashley may not re-invest it all but still, that's an outrageous figure.

 

David Villa moved for less recently and he probably the best centre-forward in the world.

 

Closer to home, Darren Bent moved for less recently and he has scored more goals than any other PL player over the past half-decade.

 

You are a simpleton, you simply do not understand that a transfer fee is based on more than the ability of a player.

 

And I would have thought that Carroll has been a godsend for Ashley.  He has given Newcastle a profile that none of the other players we have can do which in turn promotes his SD brand and will also help if he wants to sell the club.  Without Carroll, we are another run of the mill PL club.

 

I also think it will affect the morale of the other players and having been saying the club is going in the right direction, they will now question whether that is true.

Wasn't Shola out recently?, and also what about Tiote's ban?

Come back and talk in the summer if any club is prepared to bid over £35m because that is seriously a rebuild-your-team money. We could get a decent RM, CM and a couple of strikers for that kind of money. No one player in that group would obviously be worth more than £8-10m, but I think we'd be able to challenge for the top 6 if that kind of money is spent wisely (yes it's a big if).

 

I don't know. This kind of money is insane for someone who hasn't shown the ability to succeed with another style of football. I suppose the only reason teams are bidding so much is because he means so much to us because in pure footballing terms there's no way he comes close to David Villa as a striker.

Having just got Mensah, Onuoha etc back this week .

 

Are you seriously sugesting that Alan Smith, Ryan Taylor and Dan Gosling being injured has made any difference to you whatsoever?

 

Every one of the Sunderland players listed would have played a major part this season.

 

Grow up.
