madras Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 The only players who would be desperate to come here would be massive Newcastle fans or players who have no chance of getting a better clubs (perch). Ben Arfa is a massive one off due to that loose screw. tiote ? gosling ? Were they desperate to come or did we just put the best offer to them?? i'm guessing they weren't desperate and we were their best option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliMag Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 What happened to our policy of only signing younger players with resale value? As mentioned on the previous page thsi is Larsson's last chance at a big move and he's unlikely to dramatically improve. He can wait out his contract and go on a free as well so his wages will be very high... another supposed club policy out the window. He's 25 for goodness sake, of course he still has a lot of value. The guy can provide 5 years of top service. You don't think if he gets twenty assists in each of the next two seasons he won't be worth much more at 27?! Are you even thinking about what you're saying at all? They were just questions man . In the age and wage criteria they also seem to be compromises on supposed club policy, but you make some good points maybe they aren't as severe compromises as I thought. I also wonder what Bowyer and Carr have said (if anything) about NUFC to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crumpy Gunt Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 The thing to do now is tell his agent that what has been offered will stay on the table til mid-day tomorrow - he either negotiates or after that its a dead deal. Don't be held to ransom or give him a bargaining tool to get a better deal elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Exactly, we might not be Larsson's which is why it isn't blasphemous that he doesn't instantly sign a contract when we show an interest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I don't understand your point Madras, my point was not many players would be desperate to play for us unless we were there best option or were some avid Toon fan. So if larsson has other options to consider I wouldn't tell him to fuck off as I understand why he wouldn't instantly be sold on us. We seem to be debating despite having the same opinion I did get up early! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

merlin Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 This transfer shows every sign of going tits-up - if the guy was interested, he would have signed straight away.He is obviously hanging out for more money so its a waste of time pinning too many hopes on a player like that ; not as if he's a world-beater either....shows just how far NUFC have fallen when a Brum reserve turns his nose up....

mrmojorisin75 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 If he wanted to play for Newcastle he'd have already signed. why? maybe he wants to play for us but didn't like what he heard about the ambitions of the club and is thus taking his time to mull it over things are not always black and white man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sturla Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 For the fee mentioned and the not so high wages being rumored he would be a decent signing. But the fact is I would rather play Barton on the right. I admit I haven't seen to much of Larson. What I've seen from him and heard: - he's a decent right midfielder who can cross the ball - he wont beat a man with his pace - he is a consistent player - he can fill in at right back Perhaps he can be described as "Ryan Taylor v.1.1". For a midtable club he would be a good signing, but I don't see the fans of Liverpool being happy to start the quest back to top 4 with Seb Larson. It would be like when Roy signed Paul Konchesky.
