Nixon, what's with the double/triple posting tonight?

Been having some issues with the forum mate, if you check the sticky in football. Keeps redirecting me to NUFCblog.  :memelol:

 

 

Oh and yeah Rich as an Ivorian French would be his first language.

Don't shoot the messenger but vibes I'm getting are that Barton won't be replaced... just yet. Barnetta not back on the agenda. LB & ST 1st

 

 

Happy days for Ashley.

Rather have a striker who can play on the wing in a 4-3-3 and a left back then a direct replacement for Barton.

Remember when Given was here and Harper used to try an overhead kick every warm up against him? We need that kind of athleticism to compliment Shola.

Newcastle want to pair Pieters with £10m Inter Milan youngster

 

Newcastle and PSV close to agreeing a fee while Pardew wants Santon at right-back

 

Joey Barton may be on his way out of Newcastle United but it seems the Toon Army may finally have something to cheer.

 

Newcastle made an improved bid for PSV Eindhoven left-back Erik Pieters yesterday evening and while it is still a little way short of the Dutch club’s £6m estimation, it is believed the two clubs are very close to agreeing a deal.

 

Pieters would slot right into the vacant slot at left-back following Jose Enrique’s move to Liverpool but Alan Pardew is eyeing another full-back as he looks to bolster the Newcastle defence.

 

20-year-old Inter Milan defender Davide Santon has been attracting the eyes of a number of Premier League clubs, but it is believed Newcastle are in advanced talks with the Italian club with the view to a £10m move.

 

Santon was given his Inter debut by Jose Mourinho in the 2009/10 season and injuries to Cristian Chivu and Maicon meant the Italian received his fair share of first-team football.

 

Shortly after making his debut Santon was given the task of marking Cristiano Ronaldo in a Champions League tie with Manchester United and it was this performance that highlighted his potential.

 

The Italian has made 40 appearances for Inter Milan over the past three seasons and featured 11 times for Cesena during a loan spell towards the end of last season, and his performances have earned him seven caps for his country.

 

Both Pieters and Santon would have a huge impact on a Newcastle and a Newcastle back four of Pieters, Santon, Stephen Taylor and Fabricio Coloccini would be expected to perform strongly.

Not sure how reliable this is, but would be great to improve the right back position. Danny is okayish, but if we can get better there why not. Or maybe Danny is getting shipped out too! Contract drama and all that.
