Realistic Transfer Targets Summer 2010

[Conjo]

Hard to tell really, but I can't see Rosenborg demanding more then £3m for any player, with some future clauses involved perhaps.

The price tag has surely gone up based on his performances thus far. He's stil relatively young isn't he?  24ish?

24 next month. We've got no chance unfortunately. Looks quality.

Rosenborg have no financial issues and will not be forced to sell players to keep running without a loss. They can demand what they want, which probably would be around £5-6 Million given how he's preformed at the WC and the known interest. He'll be off this summer, no doubt, but for only £3 million? No fucking way.

 

Example: Year before Sapara left they were offered £3.2 Million by Besiktas, he had two years left on his contract and they declined, knowing he wouldn't sign a new contract and that they'd more than likely sell the following year (which they did) at a cut price. Annan is in greater demand than Sapara as well so I highly doubt Ashley would cough up £5-6 Million for one player. They also sold Alexander Tettey for a fee rising to £4 Million, and he was not in any great demand. They might be the only club in Norway that don't have to sell unless they get an offer they're satisfied with.

Kevin Prince-Boateng, Anthony Annan and Robert Vittek to much to ask for?    :-[

 

Would love Kevin-Prince Boateng and Anthony Annan here!

 

Vittek btw is pretty awful (despite the 3 goals he's scored at the world cup so far). He wasn't good enough für Nurenberg. And they are an awful club.

 

And I really really don't think we need Boateng. We have enough of these kind of players in Barton and Carroll. We don't need another player who is "dangerous".

 

Not that we'd ever get him...but how could you think we don't need someone like Boateng?  He would offer a touch of class and creativity to our midfield.  Would be a fantastic signing.

[Ketsbaia]

I know I've suggested Anthony Annan many times before, but he really has shown his quality at the World Cup. He is worth the hype. Exactly what we need too. Unfortunately if he keeps playing well, others clubs will want him and his value will skyrocket. We HAVE to try though.

[Guest teepee]

Winston Reid (centre back/right back) of New Zealand has been outstanding in the world cup.....currently playing for a team in Denmark. Though he costs more than zero so might be out of our price range.

 

Reid has stood out to me as well, looks like he could play at a decent level.

 

i've watched him a bit for FC Midtjylland and imo he is one of those players who are playing above their level in a major tournament.... there are quite a few better players around in the danish superleague...

I haven't doubted his footballing ability. I have doubted his character.

Surely already far beyond our reach.

 

Here's the thing: were not going to sign any players who were impressive at the world cup. We've got neither the funds nor the clout to do that.

[mrmojorisin75]

for all the people talking about kevin prince boateng please, take a look at him right now in the WA, have a look at his neck and arm tattoos and tell how you think he'd pan out in newcastle

[joeyt]

Ghana right back is better than Simpson. Only young too

[Skeletor]

Ghana right back is better than Simpson.

 

Whilst I agree, that's not exactly a complimentary comparison

[Guest ObiChrisKenobi]

Basically anyone on here:

 

http://www.givemefootball.com/pfa-transfer-list

 

Possible Frees:

 

Gilbert (Arsenal) - LB

McEverly (Derby) - LB

Queudrue (Birmingham) - LB

Harewood (Villa) - ST

Nevland (Fulham) - ST

 

I'm not saying they're quality, but they'd be realistic.

[Thespence]

I would take Koren, Gallas & Paul Scharner.

 

Am Faye, Paul Robinson (mackem), Lee Hendrie, Shaun Thornton, Gavin McCann, Clinton Morrison & Franck Queudrue  = Me +

 

Marlon Harewood is available 

 

Darius Vassell 

 

Quite a few x-Toon juniors on there.

 

 

[Guest]

Didn't Queudrue end up at Colchester last season?

 

Was canny 5 years ago.

[Merseyside Mag]

I thought Wilfred Bouma was a decent player, available on a free. However with a year or 2 full of injuries, has pretty much lost pace, strength etc. Prob go back to Holland anyway.

I never said they were good, just the type of player we'd end up with!

I can already predict who our first new signing will be:

"It's like having a new signing"

[Guest]

Close.

CHRIS Hughton believes he already has a new signing in his squad – Joey Barton.

 

The Newcastle United manager is confident a fully-fit Barton next season will be like having a "new player" for the club

[Dave]

Textbook.

Nevland already back home in Norway at Viking.
