NUFC transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

Never get the, "no players will want to join us", banta. We have proved time and time again that we can attract decent players.

 

It's what we do when they get here that is the problem and having no ambition to keep them.

 

Oh they do but if other clubs offer more money and show more ambition it's a different story. Most of the players we get are under the radar of most Premier League clubs or are deemed not good enough for the top 4 to take a risk on.

 

I don't think it's even that any more. The CL clubs rarely need to take risks because of the clout they have - they can just wait and buy the finished article. See Debuchy, Remy, Bony, etc.

 

Our problem is we're seemingly not prepared to compete with clubs we should be able to blow out of the water, on alleged principle, - Swansea, So'ton, and the likes. Mainly because our trio of board members think they know better than everyone else.

You should know better.  We're AIMING to make 5 signings, "targeting 5 signings" you might say.  By mid-July we'll be trying to "push through 3 signings" and by late August we'll be "working hard on a new striker"...  (We all know the drill)

 

Essentially we're looking at 3 in and a squads worth out making our squad depth even more scary. Think of the wage bill though, we'll be balance sheet champions next season, mark my words!

We need more than 5 players in and that's without any out goings.

 

I know we have pretty much admitted defeat in the race for Ings but I can see us going in for Austin and Deeney whilst everyone else is fighting over Ings.

Players I'd genuinely want to keep: Krul, Janmaat, Dummett, Haidara, Sissoko, De Jong, Aarons, Cabella, Abeid, Cisse, Perez, Armstrong. Dummett only being useful as a back-up.

I wouldn't include Dummet, I'd be ok with Cisse going, Armstrong I've seen nothing to suggest he may make it in the Premiership.

i'll be strangely gutted if janmaat leaves this summer mind, i f***ing love him, he's got a 'real footballer' thing about him and is the closest thing we actually have to a captain in the entire club

 

He's awesome, love his attitude. I'd say De Jong is probably the best captain we have based on the stuff i've read/seen of him at Arsenal. Shame he's been hurt all season and not been putting himself in the shop window.

Nothing strange about that. He'd probably start for us.

Imagine advocating losing the only player we have that can score goals :lol:

Certainly not a great footballer (though he has his moments) but he is a goalscorer and apart from a season or so spell here when he was not used/played out of position, his scoring record is very good at all levels.

Janmaat is far too good a player(and professional)to be at a no-hope outfit like NUFC ; he was very much on Liverpool's radar and he will do very well there if they sign him in summer.

Frankly, I couldn't care less - any player who is decent will be sold from Newcastle and if they want a decent career they should leave. Nobody should get attached to any player because the club IS a selling club and will remain so for years.

I wouldn't let Cisse leave until the "new" strikers have proven they can score goals in this league.  If they sign another pair of strikers like Riviere and Luuk de Jong, we will be in serious trouble.
