TRon Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Would be a decent signing IMO, hope we can make it happen. I think he'll sign for Everton though given the choice. I think we're in too late. Everton have been working on the deal for a while and I don't see why he would come here unless the money's better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard of Byker Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Kone: "Hello, is that Mr. Kinnear?" Kinnear: "Yes, speaking" Kone: "I've signed for Everton" Kinnear: "Okay, thanks for keeping us in the loop" Too competent, man. Kone: "Hello, is that Mr. Kinnear?" Kinnear: "No" Kone: "I've signed for Everton" Kinnear: "Hello?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 His pace would be useful, something we lack upfront. It's either pace or height that will unlock Cisse, guess our lot think its pace that'll do it, I probably agree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishmael Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 At least the club we're running against aren't likely to gazump our contract offer. Everton shouldn't be an issue in that department Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton have been working on the deal for a while and I don't see why he would come here unless the money's better. If he has a release clause then how much work could they have been doing the past few weeks? It says in the Sky article that he was on the brink of signing for Everton so they must have done some work on it. I'm sure i read somewhere that the deal had been mostly thrashed out, might have been the transfer thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 only chance is if tiote's a bit matey with him and can trick him into signing for us by telling him how great its going to be here in the next couple of years under our new DOF who incidentally is head and shoulders above any other.

TRon Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Scott Wilson @Scottwilsonecho 10m There's genuine #NUFC interest in Kone, but they've left it very late to try to do deal. Everton already done a large amount of ground work. That's it there, but it might be based on nothing more than guesswork I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Presumably he wouldn't need to change any of his home life arrangements to sign for Everton, which could be important for a guy who's nearly 30. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Tbh it's his last chance of a big pay deal, or his biggest, therefore it's easy to win this battle IMO, just offer him £10kpw more than Everton. He'll join. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 What is this transfer rule people keep referring to! The idea was not to spend significant amounts i.e. in fee and wages on players over 27 or whatever. However, a bargain is a bargain. If you can get one who is proven and productive for a good fee and good wages, then I don't think we'd snub it. That's how I understood it anyway.
