Elliottman Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I'm not a massive fan but through the middle last season he had some great moments. No idea why he's been frozen out but I suspect it has more to do with something off the pitch than what he's done on it. That pass against Arsenal for Ba's goal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Newcastle United's transfers to be decided by committee, reveals Alan Pardew 23 Dec 2013 08:41 Alan Pardew has revealed that Newcastle United’s January transfer targets will be whittled down during a “transfer committee” meeting Alan Pardew has revealed that Newcastle United’s January transfer targets will be whittled down during a “transfer committee” meeting. Pardew will meet with director of football Joe Kinnear in due course with the window open for business again in just eight days time. Newcastle have already been linked with a possible loan move for Borussia Monchengladbach’s Holland international striker Luuk de Jong, who faces crunch talks with the Bundesliga club this week to decide his future. But United boss Pardew isn’t concerned about the club’s transfer plans. He said: “The transfers, that is really a committee. “We sit down, we discuss and we make sure that we make the right decision for the club. “Finance comes into that, of course, but also the selection of what I need.” Pardew even went as far as praising Kinnear, despite the controversial former Wimbledon boss arriving back on Tyneside to a frosty reception from supporters. Pardew said: “With Joe’s knowledge of football, he knows that the manager needs certain things. “It has helped in my opinion.” Pardew indicated that Mike Ashley was pleased with the season so far. And added: “I just think we are in a good place as a club. I know we’ve had some strange opinions about us from outside but we’re working well together. “The owner is really pleased, I’m really pleased and the players are, which is more important, because if players are not happy you can’t get those performances. Hopefully we can keep it altogether and improve on it because the window is opening and it might be an opportunity for us to galvanise.” Meanwhile, Pardew sent Ryan Taylor to Anfield on Saturday to see Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Cardiff City. The injured Scouser has been acting as a scout for Pardew in recent weeks and is regarded as one of his backroom team at the moment. Taylor was running the rule over the Bluebirds ahead of the FA Cup clash in the new year. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-uniteds-transfers-decided-committee-6440243 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I can - just about - envisage Pardew, Carr, Kinnear and Irving sat in a room discussing transfer targets. I can see that being constructive enough, one way or the other. What I can't envisage is a footballer sat in a room with Joe Kinnear, and there being an outcome that favours Newcastle United.

Tiresias Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I do like it in a way but there is a limit to it's success imo.

alexthegreat Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Ferguson never criticised the Glazers despite the fact they have enough income to compete with the likes of Bayern Munich and Real Madrid in the transfer market. Wenger never criticised his board despite having to sell an entire title winning side to his rivals. Of course he says it's all great, what do people expect? Benitez criticized his board and look what happened to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
