Newcastle drew 0-0 at Norwich but the Magpies boss felt they had no alternatives in attack at Carrow Road. Pardew added: "We didn't really have the chance to mix it up or an option so we had to stick to the game plan that we had at the start of the game. "They [Norwich] could bring on Grant Holt to change the game plan a bit but we don’t have that luxury. So we need to recruit in the next couple of weeks."

BONTEMPI Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Newcastle United looking at "three or four" players By Barney Corkhill, Reporter Filed: Saturday, January 12, 2013 at 20:34 UK Last Updated: Saturday, January 12, 2013 at 20:36 UK Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has revealed that the club are looking at bringing in "three or four" more players during the January transfer window. The Magpies have already brought in Mathieu Debuchy this month, while Marseille striker Loic Remy is also thought to be on Pardew's radar following the sale of top scorer Demba Ba. Pardew revealed that they have set their sights on a few players already, and hinted that any deals are progressing nicely. "We are pursuing three or four players and they all seem to be warming up a bit. We need a bigger pool of players," said Pardew. Newcastle's 0-0 draw with Norwich City this afternoon leaves them 16th in the Premier League table, just two points clear of the relegation zone. I know the source maybe shit, but he has a quote. Thought he said 1-2 previously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 He was saying bringing a player of Grant Holt's quality off the bench is a luxury (he doesn't have) no two ways about it FFS. Comments come a season after finishing 5th. I'm not having a go at him, more the situation the club is in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comments come a season after finishing 5th. I'm not having a go at him, more the situation the club is in. Was he not just refering to Holts quality in relation to Norwich's squad of players? Hence they had a good option to change things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONTEMPI Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Well judging by the quote he means 3-4 players to bolster the squad. Whether they are all first teamers is another question. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magpies representatives watched the Gabon striker as St. Etienne drew 2-2 at home with Toulouse. The visitors had another Toon target, midfielder Moussa Sissoko, in their line-up. Neither Aubameyang nor Sissoko scored but both were involved in the build-up to goals. The Toon are also checking out 20-year-old Danish international centre-half Jores Okore, who plays for Nordsjaelland in the Danish Superliga. Okore, who has four Danish caps, is valued at £4.5m. Meanwhile, Newcastle are reluctant to hand wantaway skipper Fabricio Coloccini a cheap passage back to Argentina after investing more than £25million on him.
