LRD Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Elmander reminds me of Viduka - good only in the last year of his contract and very average for the rest. Not so keen on signing him. Or maybe offer him a one-year contract every time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Free transfer along with another striker and I'd be happy. If he's the only striker brought in though then I'd be worried. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has his drawbacks, but having him as an option would be nice. I just don't want him to be the only striker we bring in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest YANKEEBLEEDSMAGPIE Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hasn't this club suffered enough? Alan Pardew is planning a shock swoop to sign Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole this summer. The Newcastle United boss is looking to bring in significant additions to his St James’ Park squad using the money the club made from the sale of Andy Carroll to the Anfield side and has earmarked a move for the former West Ham and Chelsea man. Joe Cole has not had a good start to his time on Merseyside, sent off in his first match at home to Arsenal and seemingly not able to break into the first team picture on a regular basis during the short Roy Hodgson reign. The England international currently has problems with a persistent knee injury and was the subject of interest from his former Upton Park club during the January transfer window but no move was forthcoming. Newcastle United boss Pardew is looking to add more creativity to his Magpies squad and having secured French winger Hatem Ben Arfa on a permanent deal is now looking to bring in more flair players to help provide the ammunition for this strike force, another area the former West Ham and Reading boss is looking to improve. There has been some speculation that Liverpool may accept offers of as little as £5m for a player who arrived on a free in the summer as they look to remove his large salary from the club’s wage bill. Newcastle United may find it tough though to convince new assistant boss Steve Clarke to allow such a deal as the former Chelsea man is said to have high hopes that 29 year old Cole can still go some way to recapturing his former glory. http://www.caughtoffside.com/2011/02/11/newcastle-united-plan-5m-swoop-for-liverpool-playmaker/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EastEndGeordie Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 This would be a very bad idea for various reasons: 1) we don't have the wages for him and unless he takes a massive cut we won't get him. 2) He is actually a very poor player, one need only look at the WC where where we had Terry saying he could 'unlock' defense's yet as we now know he couldn't unlock the front door to his house.. 3) He is a Liverpool reject and at this current time we do not need to be picking up Hodgson's sloppy seconds.

Sifu Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 If we offer £1 million and he accepts a reasonable wage (20-30k), then I'd take him. Not going to happen mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicago_shearer Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Of all the possible lessons that you could take from this club's last decade, not signing expensive cast offs is probably the most important. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
