Dokko Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 He's got some decent pace and skills, can't see us going for him and Larrsson, torn on who'd I'd rather have due to Ziani being 28, but would probably still go for him as I think he'd be the more productive player. He can play in the centre as well as out right, could see him running with the ball through the middle, maybe still room for Larsson as well? Did he play against us for Twats?

Dave Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1343176/Newcastle-listen-offers-Sol-Campbell-Toon-eye-swoop-Wolfsburgs-Karim-Ziani.html 1st January that was posted. Also, when I posted this: http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,71550.msg2707397.html#msg2707397 It was based on a foreign news article and his agent was quoted as saying he definitely wasn't going to be leaving permanently, that he had a great relationship with Wolfsburg (IIRC said he wanted it known that he wasn't leaving in a huff etc) and that he fully intended to return there.

Isegrim Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 According to yesterday's the local newspaper in Wolfsburg there is only an offer from a Turkish club on the table for Ziani. http://www.waz-online.de/Wolfsburg/WAZ-Sport/VfL-Wolfsburg/Barzagli-darf-vielleicht-gleich-weg-Nuernberg-jagt-weiter-Ben-Khalifa He's never been impressive at Wolfsburg tbh.

SteveMc Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Doesn't his Dad say in the article from France that he wants to go Monaco and anywhere else would just be for the money? tiote came as he's always been a fan ? didn't colo's agent say a similar thing ? I know all that, just saying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Some of the details seem very specific mind for a rumour. Only thing that makes me doubt it is that the article's from Thursday morning and hasn't really been picked up on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 A talented creative player. Wouldn't mind seeing him here, tbh. I think I'd have him ahead of Larsson anyway. Although I really don't want to see Barton come off the RM as long as he's preforming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 But the German and French press (apart from that Monaco site in the original post) haven't mentioned anything from that article either which is weird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Yeah there's 'links' but noone in 2 days has mentioned anything about medicals, 3 and a half year deals, etc which you'd have thought there would be if there was anything in this.

It's a weird one, I agree. The fact that there's some really specific details being mentioned kinda adds something to it, but I don't know. Never know whats going to happen with this board the way players appear out of the blue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Told ya. Pardew with money The rumors so far make me really doubt him in the transfer market. Ok, he got us Ben Arfa on a permanent deal, but he would be a right retard if not. Hopefully Carr have something to say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Looked good for Algeria against England that I definitely remember. Quick, tricky sort that looks to take on players. We could do with more of that tbh. Doesn't seem to have worked out at Wolfsburg, but for the price quoted definitely worth the risk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
