Dave Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 As if we'd pay money for someone out of contract in six months. QPR are only three points off the play-offs as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 As far as emergency January deals go, Carrick would be a great deal. Underrated midfielder, tons of PL experience, vocal. Give him the armband. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 He has long coveted the St James’ Park job and made the mistake of convincing himself that, once he had gained the owner’s trust, he would be permitted a say in recruitment. What a fucking mug. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him the armband. Contract runs out in the Summer I think. Way better than our current options but perennially knackered and will be ruled out due to bring an OAP.

huss9 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 its one thing targeting and going for players, but why would anyone decent even consider moving here in January whilst where odds-on to go down. we might be able to bring them in this summer if we stay up but this January's window is going to be desperate. gonna be a case of just getting some bodies in to pad out the squad. no one of any quality is going to join us in january, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might as well announce his immediate retirement if he signs for us because he would have no chance of ever being fit enough to play even a single minute.

However, as the goofy one says he won't be coming though. An already complex task is further complicated by his ostensibly laudable attempts to wean a young, inexperienced squad off the direct counterattacking tactics adopted by Alan Pardew She spelled 'Eye AIDS inducing hoofball' wrong.

Tiresias Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I find any faith in Sissoko ridiculous, he can turn beast mode once in a while but he is mostly shit. Thinks he's too good for this team, on his day he is but is way too inconsistent for a champions league club to trust, and if one is more fool them. http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2015/dec/05/steve-mcclaren-newcastle-united-problems Seems to indicate no spending splurge in January Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be worth a shot at some stage simply because he could not be worse than our actual CM options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
