BottledDog Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Pardew - "I want a player, our board wants a player but that doesn't mean the other club wants to sell," he said. "In some ways you don't know if the result yesterday was a good thing or a bad thing. There's a sort of clue thrown in there." Clue? Who's he on about? From here - http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/jan/06/newcastle-united-andy-carroll-dubai The entire last page of the thread was speculating about it. Where in the what now? Quit the speculating then and give me answers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I think it's pretty clear that quote has nothing to do with West Ham and everything to do with signing a striker. That's just me though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he says he doesn't know if the result was 'a good thing or a bad thing': Good thing: wahey we beat Spammers 5-0 Bad thing: aw shit Leon scored a hat-trick there's nee way i can replace him nao D: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheSummerOf69 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Pardew likes old fashioned wingers and probably isn't too impressed with the delivery of ours (Routledge), so that's the number one target I would expect. We don't really have an effective player at getting to the byeline and delivering. However... having Joey ping the long diagonal balls in from the right Beckham-style is working a treat, and on the left flank we have a really clever Premier-league-worthy trick in that Jonas will toy with the ball and attract a couple of opposition players to him like bees to honey, then pop the ball back for the best crosser of a ball that we have after Barton, namely Enrique. We've got Ben Arfa to come back in, plus Routledge, Ferguson and (when fit) Raylor and Lua Lua as back-up, so we're not doing too badly. Pardew's comments about the result possibly being a "bad thing" suggest to me he's been pushing for another striker too. Maybe a nippy finisher who could feed off Carroll's knock downs...

Cronky Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 The first part of the quote suggests that both he and the Board want to buy the player, but the selling club needs some persuading. If the result on Wednesday was a mixed blessing, it suggests that West Ham are the club who will now be even more reluctant to sell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Its Carlton Cole i reckon. Don't even joke man. Wouldn't take him for £500k. Horseshit player. Prefer Pards to pick himself. But he plays for England, man. Even more reason not to buy him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_69 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Carlton Cole can get fucked! He's just Shola Abeobi mark 2 I'd take Behrami from West Ham if we could get him. He can cover right back and right wing, he's quick and he scores goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 A few French websites saying we're set to miss out on Youssef El-Arabi (never heard of him but he's a 23 year old striker for Caen in Ligue 1 with 10 goals in 18 this season), as he's off to Wolfsburg to replace Djeko.

KaKa Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Carlton Cole can get f***ed! He's just Shola Abeobi mark 2 I'd take Behrami from West Ham if we could get him. He can cover right back and right wing, he's quick and he scores goals. If we are getting anyone from West Ham it will be Behrami I believe. We were actually linked recently. He can play accross midfield and at right back so as you say, very useful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 City fan at work knows someone who works for the MEN (spot on about CH before I heard any rumours) says we have made an official approach to Citeh for Wayne Bridge on loan. Wouldnt understand this at all unless Pars doesnt fancy Jose?!? WB is going to come here and warm the bench. edit: didnt read his email properly. Apparently they will only sell and we walked away.

Wouldnt understand this at all unless Pars doesnt fancy Jose?!? WB is going to come here and warm the bench. Bizzare. Makes sense on almost no level. Old, expensive, injury prone and hasn't played in ages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I was just going to mention Micah Richards, i really rate him and he can play as RB and CB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrightstuff83 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Charlie Adam linked with brum and blackburn for 2mil, howay pards get on that! If we tied up ben arfa, got larsson and adam combined for 3.5 mil, brought in a striker and got rid of smith only, t'would be the perfect window imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent i guess, plays RB and CB. Vaguely remember him as the least impressive of their regular players tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
