toon25 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 The problem is that Ba is off to the ACN in Jan. Irrespective of how well he's doing/will have done, the thought of being a slight knock/injury away from having Lovenkrands or Shola starting is enough to make me think that it'll be worth going after another striker. That's not to say we don't need another fullback mind. I fully agree. Reckon we're better off going for LB considering we'd have Simmo/Raylor for back up on the RB if Santon is moved there.

Baggio Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Where is the talk of Santon moving to right back come from? All I've heard from Pardew on his position in the squad is; "We are delighted to bring Davide to Newcastle. "He is a quality left-back and an established international who also gives us flexibility in defence. "Davide is a young lad and a great signing for us and I am sure he will adapt to the Premier League very quickly." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 To be honest I've said from minute one he started out as a right back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Simpson and Taylor are decent back up options at fullback, however the comments from Pardew suggests he's come in as a left back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Simpson and Taylor are decent back up options at fullback, however the comments from Pardew suggests he's come in as a left back. That's because we don't have a left back. He's played in Italy as a right back and while I'm sure he'll do a sterling job on the left, if we are going for a new full back we might as well put Santon on his natural side and bring in a left back.

Guest sydneycove Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Would be strange to buy him in Jan tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Would be strange to buy him in Jan tbh. Aye, think it's much more likely we'll go back in for someone like Erdinc in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably makes sense to put him (Raylor) RB, then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I still think we'll get Maiga or Erdinc. January could be good timing as well, if Best & Ba are stilling banging them in it's someone else to keep them on their toes, if they're not doing it then it's someone to step in.

Regardless of them scoring, we need a 3rd striker to consistently chip in with goals. Ba will be away for anc as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakka Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Why this week? Why not wait until Jan? Because if he keeps banging in the goals and looking good his value will rise and so will the number of clubs wanting him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Can we agree a signing outside the window? My understanding is that you could buy someone any time, just cant register them until the window opens? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Can we agree a signing outside the window? My understanding is that you could buy someone any time, just cant register them until the window opens? As far as I'm aware, if we wanted, and the other club agreed, we could probably have them over training with us until January. Although obviously I'd prefer he carried on playing competitive matches with their current club until January if we did strike a deal this early.
