Deuce Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 @lee_ryder: #nufc have been offered Manuel Fernandes but unlikely to take up the opportunity Of course not. He might actually improve the squad. Can't be having that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthyaddiction Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I don't know anything about Fernandes, what's he like? Meant to be a good dribbler and a creative passer. Decent shot from range. Besiktas fans seem to love him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sempuki Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Rumours over in Belgium that we've matched Spartak Moscow's 5m bid for Alderweireld. Would be the classic go for a player because he's available despite not being necessarily what we need move. He any good? Wouldn't recognise him if he was stood infront of me? It was in our press y'day btw - http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/421826/Newcastle-United-only-contenders-for-Liverpool-and-Spurs-target-Toby-Alderweireld Just called us a "beautiful club" the tease.

He's not Samba like in the air, but due to his height he will still win majority of his aerial battles. Would be a fantastic long term partner for Mapou, as i doubt Colo will stay after this season.

Shearer was smaller than that and he would dominate in the air. He's good in the air though, even if he isn't 6 ft 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthyaddiction Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I don't doubt he's good in the air, was just saying. He's only a little taller than MYM and Colo. He plays right back for Belgium doesn't he? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest VanBarduck Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 We should go after Thauvin again, he's going to be pure class. For a long time I tought there was only one player like Ben Arfa. And the fact that he never reach his potential leave me heartbroken. IMO Thauvin is the unhoped second chance for french football to produce one of the best player in the world, no less. He has the same technique,skill,electrifying pace that Ben Arfa, with much more tactical awareness,better movement and a eye for a goal, he's only 20, he still has a lot to learn and his physical abilities are perfectible. That was an heartfelt appeal to sign Thauvin http://www.nufcfans.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/nufcfans_hatem_ben_arfa_france_iceland.jpg http://img0.cfstatic.com/%E9quipe-de-france-de-football/etincelant-a-bastia-florian-thauvin-pourrait-apporter-une-touche-de-folie-a-l-attaque-tricolore_73068_w460.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
