Dave Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/7773221/ Sky Sports understands Newcastle, Bolton and Celtic are all chasing highly-rated Hartlepool youngster Luke James. Midfielder James has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign with the Pools in League One this season, notching up 19 appearances after making his senior debut off the bench against Colchester in December. The 17-year-old's antics have not gone unnoticed, with several top clubs thought to have their eye on the youngster, who has also scored three goals this term. Premier League high-fliers Newcastle and relegated Bolton, as well as Scottish Premier League giants Celtic, are believed to be leading the hunt for James, who came through the youth ranks at Victoria Park before penning his first professional deal last November. Hartlepool face a fight to keep hold of the teenager, with Newcastle thought to have already made a bid for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guinness_fiend Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Nothing major will happen anyways until after the Euros. I'm not sure of that. It's a difficult one for clubs (and players). If players have poor tournaments, their value (and wage packets) may decrease. If players have good tournaments, clubs will get shafted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punk77 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Nothing major will happen anyways until after the Euros. We don't know that. Pards will lie to the media if that's what it takes to get the players he wants. Cisse came out of nowhere. The media didn't know dick about his transfer before he was observed in Newcastle.

Minhosa Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I'd imagine, just based on the last few years worth of transfer activity, that there'll be arrivals before the Euro's. Also, educated guess, that we'll be unlikely to sign many of those whom the press link us to. It'll be Cabaye/Cisse-esque for the most part imho.

Skirge Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Burnley striker Jay Rodriguez for £8m scored 21 goals last season.. sounds more like our kind of transfer target http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-cardiff-and-southampton-in-battle-for-8m-846558 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Far too much for us if that's the quoted figure. Before anyone mentions Cisse, he was performing in a major top flight league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Honestly don't think Martinez would survive very long there. Too much delusion, unrealistic expectations etc..One bad run and the supporters would be on his back and after that it gets very tricky as Hodgson found out.

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Linked with Twente's RB Rosales again ( more so his agent has linked him to us) i personally do believe Debuchy is our first choice but it makes sense to identify several players at once in case your prime targets don't come off. Which is what i expect we are doing with all the positions we are interested in strengthening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is what i expect we are doing with all the positions we are interested in strengthening. I'm sure they have said on several occasions that they scout loads of potential targets and try and pick off the best ones. For example, i'm certain that Mariappa was way down the list and that's why we decided not to put any real effort to get him in january. I assume that players like Mariappa are no longer on the radar and that we will be back onto first choice targets. i.e it would make total sense for us to be looking at more than one right back.
