Won't pay the extra £500k regularly to secure a deal for a player we need, will pay £1.6m for a player as a favour to an agent/captain.

 

This x 1,000,000. So fucking stupid. Surely he'd offer more than 17 year old Arma

Completely baffling how this deal has unfolded. He is by all accounts a promising forward, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him plying his trade at better clubs than us in the future, despite the fact that he has utterly wasted half a year of his career here.

But Armstrong is cheaper in the same way Carver is cheaper than Houllier. When the objective is staying up then it's already virtually been achieved, the small details don't really matter in the larger scheme of things, at least not the way we are run at this point.

Facundo Ferreyra, nicknamed Chucky, is an Argentine footballer who played as a striker for Vélez Sársfield in the Argentine Primera División and is to be sold to FK Shajtar Donetsk. During his first season playing for Vélez, Ferreyra was the top goalscorer for the team in their 2012 championship winning campaing, scoring 13 goals in 15 games. He was also joint top scorer of the entire championship.

Ferreyra has played for the Argentina under-20s. He was joint second top scorer at the 2011 South American Youth Championship with four tournament goals, helping Argentina to third place. He also played with the team at the 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

Could yet be a decent option for us, rather than be cast out completely. Perez wasn't really given his chance until Pardews hand was forced, who really knows if this lad is good or not.

Departure:

For Fac's sake....

 

Serie A side Genoa confirmed on Monday evening that they'd completed the loan signing of an Argentinean named Facundo - but it's not our Magpie misfit.

 

Facundo Ferreyra was predicted to make a temporary switch to Genoa after returning from Newcastle to parent club Shakhtar Donetsk, but Spartak Moscow midfielder Facundo Costa has now completed his move.

 

If Italian media outlets are to be believed, Ferreyra is still expected at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris this month to complete a trio of Argentinean-born loanees (defender Facundo Roncaglia came from Fiorentina last year). 

 

With Ferreyra and Shakhtar both apparently willing, the Genoa press claim that delays in completion have been caused by the managerial vacancy at SJP.

 

Quite why that would be the case is uncertain though, given the lack of input from that position in recruitment terms - highlighted when Ferreyra made an unexpected entrance during our pre-season in Germany.

 

Seriously though, what's the deal with this kid? 23 and has scored goals at all levels he's played at but can't get near our first team...
