Guest nufc_89 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Doubt van der wiel ends up at arsenal. He wants to leave ajax because he is left on the bench but the same thing would happen if he joins them. Also, Jenkinson would not have a future as a gonner if they sign van der wiel and I dont think Wenger wants that to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 From what I've seen and read I think I'd be a little disappointed if we ended up with Van der Wiel instead of Debuchy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 From what I've seen and read I think I'd be a little disappointed if we ended up with Van der Wiel instead of Debuchy. Van Der Wiel's situation is a lot like Santon's actually. Hyped as a youngster but somehow has lost his way and seem's to have stagnated over last 2 years but what is not up for debate is like Santon is Van Der Wiel's ability. He could be the next player we turn from "damaged goods" to "brand new" again. I prefer Debuchy, because i know what i'm getting but if we can't get Debuchy then you won't see me complaining about Van Der Wiel coming instead.

EthiGeordie Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 The main reason for Debouchy deal is Cabaye. The Dutch guy potentially is more quality... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeloEmre Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 It is being reported that one of those players that Newcastle like the look of is the Japanese captain and centre back Maya Yoshida, with a quote coming from a source at the club saying “Yoshida’s a classy player”.

Guest BooBoo Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Few soundbites from The Pardy Man in today's Sunday Sun, but little of real interest: - Ideally wants three players in. - Bonus that we've not lost anyone and nor are likely (yawwwn). - Happy to go into Spurs game with the squad he's got. Paper also says a Carroll deal is a "non starter." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shaun Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Konate would be a great signing. He's the complete package. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Konate is great but we really don't need another Senegalese striker, based on his form we'll lose all 3 in the next ACON and end up with Shola upfront for a month! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnonel Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 heres a thought, knowing how scrooge decka etc are........ do you there there is a benefit (read: cost saving) in doing business late and selling early? saving quite a bit on wages........

Jack Flash Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 We did most of our business early last year. Cabaye, Ba, Marveaux and Abeid were in by the middle of July. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 There was no selling club to deal with for the Cabaye(release clause), Ba(release clause), and Marveaux(free) deals though. It was just a matter of personal terms. It might be that targetting "bigger" targets this summer is actually pushing back the pace of our business.
