Skirge Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Cisse's future remains uncertain By Steph Clark, Sports Reporter 7:00am Friday 24th January 2014 in PAPISS CISSE’S future at Newcastle United remains uncertain with two clubs in Turkey expressing an interest in taking the Senegalese striker on loan. Cisse’s future on Tyneside has been the subject of intense speculation this month despite director of football Joe Kinnear insisting earlier this week that no-one would leave St James’ Park before next Friday’s deadline. The striker is in a difficult situation, though, having lost form and fallen down the pecking order with Magpies boss Alan Pardew continually picking Loic Remy, Yoan Gouffran and Shola Ameobi ahead of him this season. Cisse has privately maintained that he wants to stay on Tyneside and fight for his place, but Pardew is keen to sign another striker this month – most probably Borussia Monchengladbach’s Luuk de Jong – but a deal to bring him in could hinge on Newcastle’s number nine leaving. The former Freiburg striker has already knocked back opportunities to play in Qatar and India, but a move back to Germany, where he excelled before joining Newcastle, or Turkey, could appeal to the 28-year-old. As revealed in The Northern Echo last week, the possibility of a swap deal involving Cisse and De Jong has been discussed, but Besiktas and Trabzonspor are ready to offer the Senegal international a different route out of Newcastle. West Ham have also been credited with an interest. The Magpies would only sell the striker is they recouped the £9m they spent on him two years ago so a temporary deal is the most likely option should he leave this month. Speculation continues over Yohan Cabaye’s future, while there is still a degree of confusion over the Tynesiders' pursuit of Remy Cabella. Montpellier president Louis Nicollin suggested a deal was in place for the midfielder to join Newcastle in June, but the flamboyant character has since contradicted himself by saying Magpies owner Mike Ashley would have to stump up £86m to land the 23-year-old. Meanwhile, Rotherham United manager Steve Evans has revealed the club is keen to extend the loan deals of James Tavernier and Haris Vuckic. The pair are due to return to Newcastle at the end of the month, but Evans is keen to speak to Pardew once he returns from the Magpies’ warm weather training camp in Abu Dhabi. West Ham’s goal against Newcastle last weekend has been awarded to Carlton Cole and has not been credited as a Mike Williamson own goal after the dubious goals panel reviewed the incident. http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/10959979.Cisse_s_future_remains_uncertain/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is understood that he isn't keen ... http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-united-prepared-offload-papiss-6553821 Just in relation to that Ryder article.....since when has a squad now become a 'roster' in football speak? f***ing yankisms.

LRD Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I doubt the term 'head coach' has anything to do with Americanism and more to do with the fact that they have little say over transfers (you coach and select your line-up with the players you are given) as opposed to the traditional 'managers' like Ferguson and Wenger where other aspects of the squad and transfers have to go through the manager.

Thomson Mouse Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Same as this marquee signing shit that is creeping in. Always used to be star signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Not arsed if we sell Cisse tbh. We're a worse team whenever he's on the pitch anyway. Shola has a couple of basic functions that make him a better option - as fucking unbelievably depressing as that is to say - so I don't see any need to desperately hang onto Papiss, regardless of the striker shortage.

Guest Recoba Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Papis Cisse could be offered an escape route out of Newcastle by Rubin Kazan. Toon boss Alan Pardew has already drafted in Dutch striker Luuk De Jong from Borussia Monchengladbach on loan, which leaves the Senegal striker surplus to requirements at St James’ Park. Cisse, 28, joined Newcastle in 2011 from Bundesliga side Freiburg for £9m and enjoyed a prolific start to life on Tyneside, scoring 13 goals in his first 14 league games. This season, though the forward, who is behind Loic Remy and Shola Ameobi in the pecking order at Newcastle, has only scored once in the top flight, and Rubin Kazan are prepared to spend around £8million to take him to Russia.

Dave Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Best get rid, we can't be having more than two non-Shola strikers on the books at once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I'd get rid for £8m if it meant we went for another striker or wide forward. So I wouldn't get rid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 likely he wasn't injured, and they were/are just trying their best to flog him. pardew hasn't mentioned his injury since norwich or whether he'll be fit for the weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 What an absolute fucking disgrace our coaching staff are. I am sure Cisse is far from blameless as to strip it down it is probably a mental block he needs to work out. However, in a period where we might have just started to create opportunities for our strikers he is afforded no opportunity but judged upon months of being stranded up top with nothing for service. We are clearly incapable of man managing players... Slumps with Cabaye and Tiote were only fixed through luck after at least a seasons worth of poor performances (in Tiotes case) Ben Arfa and Marveaux Obertan - lets be honest he seemed a right off when he came but we certainly destroyed what little confidence he had.

Heron Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Don't really rate the chap to be honest, but at this rate we will need him for the remainder of the season. Newcastle have quite clearly touted him about to some desperate clbs in need of striking options. Nowt like boosting his or the teams morale...fucking shitlips.
