Baggio Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Newcastle are considering challenging Sunderland and several other English rivals for Celtic star Shaun Maloney. The Scotland international is in a contract stand-off at Parkhead and will be free to talk to other clubs in the New Year. And with little prospect of Celtic agreeing to Maloney's estimated £20,000-a-week wage demands, the pressure will be on them to sell him in January. Maloney's ability to play up front, in the hole or out wide is highly rated by teams South of the border. "Shaun knows Newcastle are interested, as is Roy Keane at Sunderland," a source close to 23-year-old Maloney told the Sunday Sun. "There's been talk of Aston Villa coming in - probably due to Martin O'Neill knowing Shaun from his days at Celtic - but we've heard nothing about that." Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid are the latest club to consider taking Newcastle's Albert Luque back to Spain in January. Injuries to Maxi and Martin Petrov have left Atletico short of attacking options and pondering signing Luque, if only on loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 23, scored 16 goals last season. Has been injured alot and i believe he scored in the shearer testimonial Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I remember Teddy Sheringham talking highly about him few years ago. I haven't seen much of him in the last few years, but when he came on the scene he looked a very good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Looks like the tailor made replacement for James Milner when he leaves. Know little about him to be honest. The rumours have been busy today though. Reports in Spain suggest that Valencia defender David Navarro is thinking twice over his proposed move to Newcastle United in January.. Newcastle United and Fulham have both been linked with moves for Leicester City defender Patrick Kisnorbo. Newcastle United have been credited with an interest in Ajax left-back Urby Emanuelson, but clubcall understands they have little chance of landing him Ivory Coast international Steve Gohouri is aiming to clinch a move to Britain in the New Year. Reports claim Newcastle United and Wigan Athletic want to take the £1 million-rated defender to The Premiership. All appearing today in several places. Its only going to get worse until we reach February. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmk Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Yes he's very good, great wee playmaker, plays out on the left a fair bit for Celtic but imo is best just behind the strikers, scores goals and is very good at set-pieces. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Heard Riordan was struggling there blueconfused.gif Yeah hes not getting a game, only had a few sub-appearances,think hes wanting to go on loan or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1878 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Heard Riordan was struggling there blueconfused.gif Linked with Norwich last week. I think he'd be worth a go for a couple of Prem sides if he was available on loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 don't think he is our type of player,he will fit a championship side though he is good with passing and freekicks,other then that i see no reason for us to bring him we should leave him to the mackams,trust me he will just waste their money Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest njkman Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Quote from: Yorkie-Geordie on Yesterday at 01:45:27 PM Is he any good? He's not bad on Pro evo Razz Other than that, I haven't a clue. Im living up in aberdeen at the moment while i go to university so i get to see alot of SPL football up here and know alot of celtic fans, they rate him very highly, very quick and very skillful. not sure if we have room for him in midfield, however cud be a good upfront accuistion if he does not have to much of a price tag on him. quite short tho, adding to our dwarf squad.

Guest njkman Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 o and forgot to say, in terms of aston villa being interested, they maybe, but reading to scottish sport alot i thinik every player ever associated wiv celtic under old martin, (i go to uni wiv his nephew by the way), has been linked with a move to villa. so alot of rubbish going around Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunedin Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Another midget so we are bound to get him. At times I despair at our signings. Also not good enough for EPL so should be just what Gormless Glen is likely to sign Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
