Mole_Toonfan Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I got nothing to base this on other than my own hunch, but i honestly do believe all these Arsenal, Dortmund etc etc links are all agent work to drive the price up and the clubs in question are not even involved.

Espio Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 He's obviously told his teammates he is signing for Newcastle. We have been speaking to him since before Christmas so I would think personal terms have all been agreed on. Yeah as I said earlier, Barton's tweet seemed a lot more than 'could', sounds like he has said his goodbyes (still trying not to get my hopes up! ) I was thinking about this on the way home today - Surely, he wouldn't be saying his goodbyes and coming over if he hadn't agreed personal terms already, or if we hadn't agreed terms with his agent(s). Personally, I reckon he's coming over purely for the medical and to give the signature Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Once he's said by to his team mates, basically that's it. It would take a real snag. Glad we have the frenchies here to help him settle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Bit late after the fee has been agreed, surely? Was talking about the links in last week or so, i think agents were driving the interest to get a bigger bid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 We do tend to ascertain whether a player is interested and whether we can meet their demands fairly early on in negotiations so I'd be surprised if we weren't very close to agreeing terms. The medical could be a stumbling block if our doctors have a different view on his dicky heart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the wide left position which he'll hopefully take up, it will be good to have an alternative to Cisse as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 What pleases me more is he's happy to come over to talk to us wages etc (if his agent hasn't already agreed such things) but wouldn't even meet dear old 'Arry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheikBoom Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 If anything I think this transfer will offer a lot more balance to our side. Remy can play CF and either side, I think. Obviously it was a blow to lose Ba and his goals. However, I can't help but think playing Ba left our side really unbalanced. Cisse totally out of position and Simpson behind him was awful. Having Cisse playing CF, HBA and Remy either side we should appear to be more balanced. Add a ball playing CB and a power CM such as Diame and I'd be thrilled!

Doesn't Ashley normally bung the Doc to provide a negative report, in order that he can drive the price down a bit further ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Almost scuppered his move to marseille didn't it. I don't think it will stop the move, but it is a concern like Ba's knee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 He has heart problems? Yeah can hardly walk or breathe, is on all sorts of medication, requires regular hospitalisation and has to live in a rarified atmosphere. Do you actually think the tight fuckers who run our club would try and sign someone who is healthy and end up having to pay a fair price? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 A direct, lightning-quick and strong striker who is actually good with the ball at this feet. Hope there are no hitches, we tie this up quickly, and he should make his full debut in the starting 11 vs Reading. Remy - Cisse - Marv up top with Cabaye, Anita, and Perch in midfield.

If his heart problem was ever a problem then he wouldn't be allowed to play professional football, that is even if he could manage it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
