Guest Stephen927 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 f*** off to SWP, Keane and Woodgate. SWP - not the qualities we need, costly (salary) Keane - costly, been s*** for a good while Woodgate - Are people seriously interested in this player?? He is a walking injury ffs. What a load of utter rubbish. Fair enough, say you don't want him for money/age reasons, but the suggestion that he's 's***' is ludicrous. Let's ask liverpudlians aye? Aye, we'll ask them about Michael Owen while we're at it Hardly the same thing.. They don't like Keane because he didn't play very well there, but they like Owen because he did play very well there. Just shows that his appearance at one club doesn't shape his career. He's been great for Spurs. He's been poor for Spurs since his return, so apparently his stint at Liverpool has shaped his career.

Dr Venkman Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Wright-Phillips?? That shows how much Pardew is living in the past - it's been many years since SWP was deemed an adequate footballer. He's no better than what we have now, and what we have isn't great. he's fucking MILES better than routledge for a start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, SWP is capable of playing football at a completely different level from Routledge. As for Keane, there seems to be no end of clubs where he's joined with high expectations, and ended up on the bench. I think we'd just be another.

Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Wright-Phillips?? That shows how much Pardew is living in the past - it's been many years since SWP was deemed an adequate footballer. He's no better than what we have now, and what we have isn't great. he's f***ing MILES better than routledge for a start. He was 3 years ago. There's not much between them these days. It's been a long, long time since i've seen SWP have a game like Routledge did against Chelsea a few weeks back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 If Adam johnson is available for loan then we've got to do everything we can to bring him here. Reckon there's a big chance he'd seek a permanent move once playing fr us as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 He's nearly 30, man. His game was always about pace and fast feet, there's bound to be a significant decline when you compound those factors with lack of playing time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 If we ignore the 'is he good enough' debate, is he worth shuffling our team around, either? To fit SWP in, we'd have to move Barton off the wing, losing our best creative outlet, sticking him on the bench, which clearly he doesn't deserve. Or we move him into the centre, where he ousts either Tiote or Nolan, which we can't afford to do. Or a 4-4-1-1 with Nolan off Carroll, which we've seen doesn't do as well as the 4-4-2 we've switched to this season. Quite frankly not worth the hassle. And I'd take Keane on a 6 month loan. No more.

Thespence Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Pards I guess is looking to move Barton in the middle. For me SWP is better than Lil Wayne but SWP has had hardly kicked a ball this season it could take him quite a while to get up to speed, I think it is best we stay clear.

Reckon there's a big chance he'd seek a permanent move once playing fr us as well Really agree. I think City value you him too highly to let him go out on loan though. He's a game winning type of player, and he's proved that in our last encounter against them. But your right, as a Toon fan from a kid if he gets a chance to be a hero here each week then he may even want to stay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchie Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Wright-Phillips played some games for England on the left wing so maybe we're looking to bring him in for competition with Jonas rather than Barton and Routledge? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ritchie Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I'm not saying we should use him on the left, I'm saying that we might not necessarily want him on the right. I, personally, wouldn't want him anywhere near our club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I honestly reckon Wright-Phillips would do nothing to aid us. Barton, on current form, is the best right-sided midfielder we've had in a long while. Whether or not he sustains it is another matter, but with the way we're currently set out - there's no reason why he should decline. The team doesn't need a conventional out-and-out winger down that side, it isn't a necessity. Wright-Phillips is shite anyway. Is he even that quick anymore? Just another example of a limited player almost completely dependant on his pace. Once it's gone, they've got little left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
