Dont Pardew and Cole have a bit of history from Pardews West Ham days, didnt they have a run in as Pardew dubbed coles crew the "Baby Bently" boys or summik.

The only player that would improve the Newcastle squad from West Ham's team would be Demba Ba IMO. Carlton Cole is complete horseshit. Another example of a player hyped up when he scored a few goals simply because he's English.

 

Parker is a good player no doubt but he plays the same role as Tiote doesn't he? He's not as good as Tiote either, he's just English, i.e. over-hyped. He'll go to Spurs as well, and probably get overshadowed and exposed by Sandro, who looks to be a very good player.

 

Back to Ba though, he'd probably only cost £5million or so. Looks a steal right now.

I'm clutching at straws here, but Coles last three seasons at WHU haven't actually been that bad, considering they have been utter horse shit.

 

A big chunk of his goals this season came in the league cup. His goal return in the league was poor. I know West Ham have been bad but surely they would have been looking at him as one of the players that would turn that around for them.

I suppose the positive thing would be we can all wear our old Toon shirts from the 90's with #9 Cole on the back.

 

that's exactly what my mate said in the pub yesterday  :iamatwat:

 

:lol:

maybe we are after him as a hold up player [to hold up our attack-ed] who got more strength and presence than shola?

 

Has he got more pace than shola?  probably similar finishing with feet, but better header?

 

imo an upgrade if we then loan shola out.  Assuming we also get a quality 15mil+ striker in.

If he's an upgrade from shola it's only by a tiny miniscule bit, why waste that much on a player who may be a tiny bit better than a horeshit player already, just search through all the European leagues and find a younger prospect with time on his side for half he price, look at man u and Hernandez.

 

It's possible but it's also possible for a younger player to flop but I'd rather take a chance than having to gorge my eyeballs out next season watching cole/ameobi/lovenkrands

Relegated player + us needing a number 9 + former Pardew player. Can see where the story came from but I'd be surprised if we went for him. Could see him back at Wolves though if Doyle leaves.
