themanupstairs Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Pretty disheartening if we've even asked tbh. That's understating it. It would be a monumental let-down from an already shambolic start to the season (squad wise) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliassenfredrik Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 He's on £80k at City, surely we're not gonna offer anywhere near that. It'll be Cissokho or Pieters, most likely the Dutchman. Before Deadline Day at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Geordies want to replace Jose Enrique before the derby clash with Sunderland on Saturday Pieters is ready to accept a £1.5million-a-year deal, but the clubs have yet to agree a fee. With PSV demanding £6m, Newcastle are casting around for battled-hardened Premier League alternatives and have spoken to Manchester City about out-of-favour Bridge. The England international, who was loaned out to West Ham last season, doesn’t fit with the Magpies' policy of signing youngsters, but Pardew also needs proven performers in a squad that's short of a specialist left-back.

Please tell me that this can only be a clever ruse to give PSV the impression that we have got a plan B in order to get us some leverage regarding the price.
