macphisto Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Not sure why some people think Solano loves Newcastle, we had all this sentimental rubbish when he left us the last time because he was only doing it to be with his wife in London when in truth he probably wanted away for one last pay day as he didn't stay in London for long! Haven't got the book at hand but Bobby Robson wasn't too impressed by his attitude, I'm sure he mentions seeing Solano leaving a match early after he got subbed or something for Villa against Boro. The very fact Robson mentioned that would say that he didn't think too highly of him as he could have used plenty of other players as an example. All this just reminds me of when Lee Clark re-signed and people wonder why Newcastle are such a joke of a club! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hate to say it but nobody else wants him. Doesn't mean anything man. So we should sign our players based on their popularity with other clubs? That's great logic. He won't be a world beater but we could do worse. In fact, we already have worse in Butt and Geremi. There's a difference between popularity and looking at his recent record with other clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 on trial at leicester, according to skysports.com So Sheff utd didn't want him either? This is becoming a little sad tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Nobby Solano could face Bluebirds Jan 22 2010 By Terry Phillips, Wales Online LEICESTER City are set to sign former Newcastle United, Aston Villa and West Ham player Nobby Solano in time to face Cardiff City in the FA Cup this weekend. Solano, 35, has been playing for Universitario de Desporte in his home country, Peru. Manager Nigel Pearson and Leicester's backroom staff were this morning working to get Solano registered as a player by the noon deadline, which would allow him to be involved against Cardiff. Solano has been training with Leicester all week and is a free agent. http://www.walesonline.co.uk/footballnation/football-news/2010/01/22/nobby-solano-could-face-bluebirds-91466-25662141/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Would have played under Pearson when he was Assistant to Roeder so probably knows what to expect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Awesome, off to watch that next week. Will give him a bloody good ovation. Tbh the best possible solution to this. Would have hated him to come back now a lesser player but at least we get an immediate chance to salute him and he will be in a decent team which could suit him.

Optimistic Nut Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 So nobody wanted him Ronaldo? Two promotion-chasing teams had him on trial, in which one have taken a punt on him, while we thought he looked decent in training. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two promotion-chasing teams had him on trial, in which one have taken a punt on him, while we thought he looked decent in training. There is no quote from a named person at NUFC saying they thought he looked decent in training. That was an unnamed quote in the papers. Hughton basically said we were letting him train with us as a favour but we aren't signing him. Let's see how he does at Leicester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously didn't impress that much or Sheffield United would have snapped him up. Before he signed for Leicester he had trials / training sessions at Colchester, Newcastle and Sheffield United. If he's still got it we'll see him light up the league at Leicester. If he doesn't it's a bullet dodged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh true but there will always be that thought that he would try harder for Newcastle than Leicester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
