Belfast Boy Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Regardless of how thin our squad is getting, what is it with the club policy of paying 100% upfront on all buys, but seeming keen to loan players out with an obligation to buy, essentially agreeing to sell them in the summer but letting the buying clubs have them for free for now.

Memphis Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Seeing those pictures reminded me of the time the Million Dollar Man was going to give a kid $500 if he could dribble a basketball 15 times, then kicked it away on the 14th. Mike Ashley would be proud. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 My girlfriends brother and father will be happy, no doubt. They told me that Santon loved the Toon, apparently in all his interviews across there he didn't talk about Italy, just Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 He's got more talent in his little toe than Dummett does (and I don't mind Dummett) The fact Dummett is a better defender, and has more goals that Santon despite playing far fewer games, suggests this might be a bit of an exaggeration.

Deuce Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Asset stripping? why is this always brought up? We strip any more assets and the club will be nothing more than the tea lady and a mop bucket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I hate the way they treat players purely as commodities to be bought and sold. They seem to forget they are dealing with human beings with families and not just a load of merchandise from the warehouse. It is so rare these days for a foreign player to put roots down in this area. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is so rare these days for a foreign player to put roots down in this area. Not sure this is unique to us though. And players also treat clubs as disposable. I don't like it either but it's a massive business now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikenewcastle Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 the squad gets less handsome by the day Debuchy and Cabaye gone, Coloccini arguably the last player we'd sell. Definitely a conspiracy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikenewcastle Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 My opinion is Santon wasn't good for us. But only we would go into a transfer window short on defenders and come out of it with even fewer defenders... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 This is one i'm happy about as long as they buy him at some point, he's injured all the time and when he was fit he was a horrible defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Santon would have been better for us under different management in my opinion. He isn't defensively sound but with someone like him at RB / LB and Haidara/Debuchy LB/RB with good competent wingers we would have had an, exciting, good, attacking side. Unfortunately, we were mismanaged by Pardspew. That being said Janmaat is defensively the strongest out the lot at RB... For me i would have liked to see him played as a winger in a 4-4-2, just out of curiosity... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I wish him well, it is a good time for him to go to be honest. If we were to balance out the squad a left back for a centre back seems a good rebalance, if we get those centre backs one day..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Really sad to see him go. He wasn't great every game but games like Chelsea 11/12 and 12/13 showed what he was really capable of.
