NUFC transfer rumours in the press

It would absolutely the Mike Ashley thing to do to replace our shit manager with a good one and replace our good players with shit ones.

Both together, with none of the other midfielders going, I'd be happy with that area next season.

 

Still a massive step down from Cabaye mind but it's probably as good it'll get and would keep us up, injuries not withstanding.

Shelvey just turned 22. He's far from the finished product and will improve

anywhere but here

 

 

He's a decent player, but you're making it out like he's the next Paul Scholes or something.

Not at all, but he's one of the better English prospects in the league.

 

I've always liked him, even though he tries to be just like his hero, Stevie G.

I'd still want another playmaker of Cabaye's ilk, probably won't get it so meh.

 

Of course we won't. Otherwise Pardew will have to think of NEW excuses.

I'd have both Colback and Shelvey here for what it's worth, just not under this cunt of a manager.

 

Why not? Might as well give the fraud a chance to prove he's just as shit with British players as well.

shelvey ffs.

 

If Colback and Shelvey are our targets you know their has been a shift in Pardews favour

 

Shelvey is a Gerrard wannabe and despite Liverpool being light in central midfield Rodgers still shunted him out.

Alan Pardew insists Newcastle will be active in the transfer market this summer

 

THE STORM clouds are gathering but bullish boss Alan Pardew last night forecast brighter times lie ahead for Newcastle.

 

The ailing Magpies head for Arsenal tonight bidding to avoid a sixth straight defeat - an alarming slump which probably won't threaten their hopes of a top half finish but have turned thousands of fans against the manager.

 

Pardew, who returns to the dug-out for the first time since his headbutting shame at Hull on March 1, insists the recent run paints a false picture of the Toon's state of health.

 

"From where I sit as Newcastle manager, looking at the club, I think it's in a strong position," he said.

 

"These short-term results over the last five games have really put a bit of a stain on it.

 

"We need to remove that stain by getting a result and then we can look forward to a good summer."

 

Pardew pinpoints the sale of Yohan Cabaye as the catalyst for decline but still defends the club for failing to replace him in January.

 

And he is adamant Newcastle will be prominent spenders in the next transfer window.

 

"We came close but not close enough for our fans," he added,

 

"They wanted someone over the line as a replacement for Cabaye but we just couldn't manage to do it. We ran out of time but it wasn't for the want of trying."

 

Such is the scepticism of the Toon Army about Pardew and Mike Ashley's regime, some believe the manager's tendency of talking up the club's youth team suggests Newcastle will be promoting from within rather than splashing the cash.

 

Pardew, however, firmly rejects that notion.

"When you start talking about what's underneath, there's an assumption that we're not going to sign players but that's definitely not the case," he said.

 

"And I want to make that point strongly. We have investment in the summer that we can make and we're going to make it.

 

"But the truth of it is that in two or three years' time, we've got six or seven kids here who are going to make an impact."

 

Newcastle picked up just one win and scored just two goals while Pardew was either banished from the stadium or the technical area.

 

He had briefly pondered the idea of a self-imposed touchline ban but now claims the players will be better off with him being a visible presence again.

 

He added: "It's been tough being away from my team.

 

"It was a real punishment. I'm not saying I agree with all the punishment but I accepted it.

 

"I had said I would look at whether I'm best watching from the stand but I'll go back to the dug-out.

 

"And I'll be better on the sidelines than I have been."

 

Arsenal target Loic Remy and Mathieu Debuchy who came on as subs against Swansea last week will start along with fellow French international Moussa Sissoko, who has recovered from injury quicker than expected.

 

Pardew believes their returns quashes theories that all three had effectively given up on their club season and protecting themselves for the World Cup.

 

"They are all very much aware they have to finish the season strongly not just for their individual ambitions but for Newcastle.

 

"We need to get at least one big result before the end of the season."

 

Seems legit. :thup:
