Newcastle Fan Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Is he really worth that much? surely we can get a very decent striker for even less than this money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 You'll just get rumour after counter rumour now, it'll all get very tedious. ...then we'll end up signing Mandzukic or some bugger else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejaxer Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Maybe he'll do a Ben Arfa and not turn up to training to force a deal? or hand in a transfer request? Either way, he must be good if we were willing to bid 11m. I'm sure we have other targets anyways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Assuming this is all true and we arent going to bid any more, i hope we can at least focus on getting a new CB and a RB/LB which i think are a bigger priority at this moment in time, before looking at a different striker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 If true, meh. Is Luciano Narsingh a realistic target? Keep hearing good things about him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Never seen this bloke play so can't say I'm overly fussed - our primary targets last year were Gervinho and Gameiro and that worked out OK. Positive news is it appears we're willing to spend a decent wedge on a new striker so i'm sure there are other irons in the fire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Not too bothered if this falls through. Although I am limited to youtube vids on this guy, he seems to be kind of slow, lacking necessary tempo and not very technical. Looks like Tore Andre Flo mkII. He is still young, and can improve by working on his weaknesses, but he is not worth £10m as of today - IMO. Have you told Graeme Carr this yet? If not get a move on. To be fair, its only Carrs specific paid profession to travel the world watching players all year round. Yes hes been doing it for a very long time & has an incredibly proven track record. Lets find out what the random forum member helsug from sweden thinks first, i mean in his equally creditable opinion he might not be worth that much. Christ, I took all possible precautions.

Klaus Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Good point, forgot about potentially loosing cisse and Ba in january, still i hope we dont waste ages on this lad if we arent getting any joy, the same as we have with previous failed transfer targets such as maiga, erding etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any progress we might have hoped to have made has now come to a shuddering halt. I see nothing but bleak black blackness ahead. Fucking Tukkers. Fuck off.
