steve_69 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Considering our transfer policy is to sign players under the age of 26 with a potential profitable resale value, i don't think the club would either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and plain madness thinking they would come too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Well we could probably get Fletcher, Scharner and larsson for a combined £3m. Sell shola, Smith, best and one of Nolan or Barton and we are possibly left with £30m to sign 3 midfielders a forward and a defender. That should be enough for the first season back and we could loan out a few of the youngsters (ranger, kadar, vuckic, lua lua. ..... I don't think it's that far fetched.

SEMTEX Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Wouldn't sell Shola personally. He's had a lot more Premiership experience than the other strikers. Even if he is shit, everyone else could prove to be shitter at this level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the two, feel Keane as well due to halving his wages, Beye i would like to think has the decency never to come back even if we stupidly asked him.

Gallowgate Toon Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 As for worrying about Colo, he's dealt with equally good strikers at international level (by all accounts he was very good at right-back against Spain this season) and in La Liga. I'm happy to put season one down to bedding in and simply poor form and give him a clean slate as far as the Premier League's concerned. Exactly. Anyone see his masterclass on Iniesta? Not a powerful striker but a quick, extremely tricky and supremely intelligent footballer. Colo has never ever had problems dealing with sheer pace, it's the power/pace combo where he struggled. But it's not like that was even exposed that often by those particular attributes. Someone tell me in which games was he obviously physically pummelled and it led to a goal? I can think of the Stoke game where Fuller turned him but any others? The only oher terrible game Colo had was against Liverpool where he was outdone by some poor positional sense which was probably down to his naivety of the English game. Colo's main flaw last season was his apparent lack of heart, he seemed to give up on causes that weren't necessarily lost and he just didn't seem motivated to do well. Next season should see that dispelled though, he could have generally fallen for the club now a la Enrique. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Kevin Prince Boateng apparently available for £5 million. It would be rude not to at that price. We should go for his half-brother Jerome Boateng of Hamburg. Very quick defender and can play as a right back as well as centre back. Kevin Prince Boateng seems more realistic, though.

Think Colo is a classy defender who just needs to be partnered with someone who is a bit more of a brute. Actually, I didn't see too much of him before he came to Newcastle, but understand he's a pretty decent defensive midfielder also. Could this be another posssibility for us next season? Considering we actually have no defensive midfielders at the moment! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I think he will still be looking at Championship players or end of their career prem players, the transfer kitty is a worry but akso how much he is going to allow to go onto the wage bill. We used to get BIG player because we offered BIG wages that won't be happening anymore now. Anyone be willing to take Beye back ? I am sure he would love to return & he don't get a sniff at Villa.

I hope we won't resign any player who left us after relegation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 If we are to make the most of the money we have, we should be looking to foreign markets. Hopefully our scout will have been doing work for some time in this area. We are in a far stronger position to sign spanish/south american players due to our trio from spain and i hope we can use this to our advantage in the summer. I'd also like to think Hughton and Calderwood are taking their wives to South Africa for their holidays this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
