Yaron Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Seems that we will try to sign him in the final week http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/newcastle-united/nufc-news/2013/01/24/yoan-gouffran-signs-for-nufc-now-florian-thauvin-is-a-target-72703-32667443/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoppaz Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 If we had to choose I would have this kid now and Sissoko in the summer. At least we would have another attacking option to reply on in case of injury or continued loss of form to Cisse. However, if we do end up with both this month, I might even let Ashley sh*g my wife!

Skeletor Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Winger/wide forward. Don't believe he plays through the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainhaircut Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Lefty I think. Sure I read an interview where he compared his game to Di Maria and Robben. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Thauvin vs Bordeaux on YouTube might be of interest to those that don't believe in jinxes. Yaron might be jumping the gun a bit with a thread considering the way we usually do things, but we were rumoured to have had €3.5m rejected for him last week in the French media. Arsenal and Lille are also said to be interested and the asking price is reported to be nearer €5m. Would certainly be a logical signing in addition to Gouffran's arrival.

TRon Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 So it's a straight fight between us and Arsenal for his signature? Not over-confident then, but with the recent influx of signings it might help sway the deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 The Robbe, Di Maria and Messi (:shock:) "comparison" was apparently made after he pulled a nice little technical move: http://www.francefootball.fr/#!/news/2012/04/27/212147_thauvin-le-diamant-brut-bastiais.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Does anybody know what he is like? I've heard various reports labelling him as a wonderkid but I have no idea about his playing ability or style. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Winger/wide forward. Don't believe he plays through the middle. Good, we need some depth in that position and if he's half as good as Robben Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

QBG Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Really raw, but just oozes potential. Fast and agile with a penchant for the spectacular, this kid can definitely become something special but needs to be nurtured in the right way. If we were to sign him the right move would definitely be to loan him straight back to Bastia, who have another young gem in Wahbi Khazri, who is away at the AFCON at the moment.
