Ash Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Hope this is us finally building a squad and we're not about to lose Dave. I wouldn't have thought so. We have less cover at LB than at CB. We were also trying to buy a LB in the summer (Pieters). I really hope that's the case. Maybe Mick Lowes was right... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm satisfied in terms of goalkeepers and in the midfield, but the defence and striker situation is stinking: Debuchy S. Taylor Coloccini Santon > Simpson Williamson Perch R.

madras Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 @mattspiro: #NUFC haggling with managerless Nancy over €4m-rated left-back Massadio Haidara (20). Great name, good prospect. Should get him for €3m Tbh as i said Santon needs some competition but its not really a priority position for this window for all i prefer santon on the left, he can play on the right. if true it gives 3 specialist full backs to cover 2 positions Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what we said Jean-Raymond Legrand on Thursday: " Unless an exceptional offer, he will not leave this winter and stay with us at least until June. " Liverpool, Newcastle, Paris ... But the president of Valenciennes does not exclude as a transfer: " We still look at what we offer. Including offers that include a six-month loan. Are discussed with several clubs. I have three English clubs and a French club discussing in this context , "he says. As Le 10 Sport revealed in recent weeks, Newcastle and Liverpool have targeted the defender of Valenciennes. Interest of PSG was also discussed recently Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask the manager. ask the club management instead. Well according to Pardew we might not be able to afford a defender because we don't know how much we'll spend on a striker. Sounds about right for a change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Aye i would definitely buy a LB in the summer.... Santon > Raylor > Ferguson = I'm just not confident in the board in getting the priorities in, if we sign a forward and CB in addition to a LB then fine but i highly doubt we will.
