Kanj Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Colo's long term replacement is already on the books ffs. What is needed is the long-term partner to replace Willo/Saylor for good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiemag Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Tiote off to Russia??? http://izvestia.ru/news/575517 Seems pretty legit. Wouldnt be against the move provided we bring in Grenier or a proper right winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 We were linked with Stambouli the other day. Would rather have someone like Grenier. Not that it'll happen though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 If we sold Tiote, we'd better get someone like Stambouli in or else we'd be completely toothless in midfield. We've got no one in the current squad with anything like the required physicality and destructive potential of Tiote at his best - or even when he's merely average. I still remember the 3-0 against Man United when Tiote just bossed everything in the centre of the park, totally nullified Rooney and frustrated the hell out of him. He gets a lot of stick sometimes but Tiote can be a hell of a player on his day. Stambouli has a lot of similar characteristics, is friends with Cabella, younger, sell-on potential, ticks a lot of boxes. But it's incredibly risky to try to cash in on Tiote now even if Stambouli comes in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 If Tiote is to go, I would rather see someone a little more creative come in as all our midfielders are much of a muchness. We really need someone a little different in there that can open defences and create and support the attack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Assuming we'd buy a replacement, I'd love to see Tiote go. He has good days but is generally a liability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheToon Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Doubt anyone else would come in. Sell tiote and make a bit of a profit in the last few windows while saying we've spent big on 9 signings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 We've got Anita, Sissoko, de Jong and Colback for 3 positions, essentially. If we were to sell Tiote, I'd far rather we invested the money in a striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magpies turned down a bid believed to be less around 50% less than his current valuation. And the derisory offer was dismissed out of hand.

If we were to sell Tiote, I'd far rather we invested the money in a striker. We need to do both to be fair, some creativity in midfield and some goals upfront. I don't disagree that the striker is by far the most important along with a defender though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
