Skeletor Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Pardew did confirm that he would be scouring the Championship and League One for players capable of stepping up. FML. It's not even just that. The whole article pretty much says "There's some really good players abroad...but I don't know any of them so I'm going to buy some shit from League One since I know that league."

Guest Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 David Prutton Is that the bloke we were scouting then saw Jenas? Yep. Prutton was being linked with us & Leeds (when they were at their best) for ages and it never happened. Although ironically he did end up at Leeds when they were in League One.

Fenham Mag Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Charlie Adam would be a fantastic addition , but can only see it if we sell Barton. I would prefer Barton tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Leicester left-back Bruno Berner available on a Free in January. Was one of Leicester's best players iirc last season, sure he'd be on a cheap wage and would come to a club like us. Realistic back-up for Enrique?

Guest Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 We need a back up left-back. We're not going to get someone of quality who'll be prepared to benchwarm for Enrique, he's a free, cheap option who could see us through an emergency for 5 months if need be.

colinmk Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Judging by previous signings in pretty recent times we should not bother signing Keane types. On loan it is a win win though and I don't think Ashley is going to fund the signing of a good youngish striker which would cost 5m+ surely. Doesn't even matter though because according to them we are on our way to becoming the barca model! Good times. Funniest thing, all of our current crop of homegrown wonders were scouted/signed under a board that ended up being chased out of town (and rightly so). !! there is hope! When did Carroll actually burst into scene? Four years ago or something? (I remember him being a substitute in a UEFA cup game). This policy needs years to actually reap results as youngsters are scouted and developed. I really don't think Ashley wants to be here that long. I know...I realise there is no hope unfortunately. The Barca youth are just incredible though. I was over in the summer there and was watching the under 12s play on barca tv, any idea who the young black(had an african name I think) kid was? He was completely bossing the games I saw, scored pretty much all the goals and set them up, was in defence, midfield and attack and generally looked like he is going to be insanely brilliant. Any idea who that kid is VI, can't find out on the net. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Perch is pretty good on the ball but he's a fucking abysmal defender. It says it all that he took the piss out of Jonas again and again. I'd go for Paul Dixon at Dundee Utd for LB cover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 That's a bloody good shout. Dundee fans really rate him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Would he go to a club where he knows he'll be second choice though? That's the big problem we have. I'm sure he could go to one of the Old Firm clubs or another Premier League side where he'd get more first-team opportunities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Why is Berner free in January? Didn't Perch play a holding midfield role a fair bit at Forest? Maybe a better option than Smith as back up to Tiote? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 If the Tiote signing and Legear link is anything to go by I'd imagine we've been scouting Holland/Belgium. If so then we could do worse than Ronald Vargas of Club Brugge. Plays as an attacking midfielder or a wide player on both sides, Venezuelan international and has scored 12 goals in 19 games this season. Been linked with teams in Spain recently and might be a good alternative/subsititute to Ben Arfa. Work permit might be a problem, though, unless he's got Belgian citizenship yet. (only takes a few years to obtain a Belgian passport) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Belgium really does have a lot of good prospects. I did a list a while back of players from both Holland and Belgium we should be looking at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
