Colocho Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 We've needed this kind of player for years - a box-to-box midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Maybe a clause which kicks in 12 months from the end of his contract? Sure there was a similar one with Ben Arfa which was at €5-7m if they'd waited until this summer to sell him 12 months from when his contract was up. Remember seeing that I'm sure. Maybe a French League thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 At least if he shows some promise we'll probably be able to command double that fee in a years time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 At least if he shows some promise we'll be able to command probably double that fee in a years time. Or give him a new 6 and a half year contract? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Judging from all the comments in this thread, this will be a great signing. I'm looking forward to seeing him play for us in that case (if he does sign). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 He looks a strong lad, should suit English football as well. The thought of him and Tiote in the Newcastle engine room... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Apparently he's a penalty-taking specialist. Shola or Cabaye Don't be silly, Shola is, and always will be, the designated penalty taker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 @Cwarr #nufc have signed Lille midfielder Yohan Cabaye for 5m euros subject to passing a medical Damn it i got excited about this til that tosser said it. I hate that c***. He was celebrating that he was right about Carroll leaving the club in January, despite him spending the month saying he was going to Spurs. Who is he?

Some dickhead who makes up stuff about Newcastle, sometimes just goes along with stuff reported in the press hoping it's correct or takes stuff off forums. Very rarely correct, I don't know why people follow him when he is obviously not ITK at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think if that clause had existed for longer than just the last 12 months of his contract he'd have been snapped up long ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WisconsinMagpie Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Our site has a fresh item on Cabaye and the possible signing, including a brief profile and a link to highlights. He has been in our summer transfer guide, and he's one of the few who fit all of Pardew's hints earlier in the week about the shadowy central midfielder. http://bit.ly/k11qy3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
