Krul is a decent keeper, but hes by no means champions league quality. His distribution is poor and he makes a lot of mistakes.

 

Not right now, but at a club that doesn't have poundland coaches he would improve, I expect Ronaldo is right that Buffon is going nowhere though.

Buffon's got another 5 years in him. If he goes there he'll be sitting on the bench, and for a while.

 

Doubt he's got 5 years at the top of his game left. Will probably be like Toldo at Inter where he (Buffon) will be the Nr. 2 then and Krul as Nr. 1

Buffon hasn't got 5 years left in him for a team like Juventus like.

Hit a ceiling in quality while his form has dipped (not sure if injuries have taken their toll already) We will have done well to get double figures for him.

 

Still the only player I'd be sad to see go from this shower of shite. :(

He's just turned 36. I can easily see him starting for a fair few seasons yet.

Any player with a modicum of ambition must want to leave Newcastle once they realise the vision of the club is profit for Mike Ashley and the football is a secondary concern. Krul needs to move before his career stagnates. He's not half the keeper he should have been at this stage of his career.

So how many do we think might go this Summer?

 

Krul

Debuchy

Colo

Remy

Shola

Gosling

Ben Arfa

Obertan

Marveaux

Santon

Taylor

MYM

 

That's 12 and we are already 2-3 short in numbers.  Are we really going to recruit that many players as there are not enough in the reserves ready to step up?

 

I can't imagine they would let 3 centre halves go so I would think one of them at least would end up staying.  And they may try switching Santon to right back if Debuchy goes.

 

Surely they will have to recruit some domestic players as well as they can't buy that number of foreign players who will all need time to adapt to the league.

 

They will have to start bringing players in early instead of their usual games of brinkmanship in the hope of knocking a fiver off the price.  It is ridiculous that they have allowed this situation to arise - where we will be buying as a matter of urgency and desperation and sellers will try to take advantage of that instead of just buying one or two to freshen up the squad.

Would like him to stay but not majorly fussed if he does leave and we get a decent replacement.

 

Been completely average this season. His shot stopping is great but his distribution/kicking and his command of area is really poor imo.

Also in the Star:

 

"He is also missing European football and believes he may need a bigger stage to further his international ambitions.

 

A source close to the keeper said: "Tim enjoys playing for Newcastle but at the same time, he wants to win trophies and play at the highest level."

Fancy a player wanting to win trophies and play in Europe.

 

 

"Though he has been the club's undisputed No.1 for the past three years, Pardew admitted recently that his understudy Rob Elliot is ready for regular first team football."

I hope he means at another club and not for us.
