Danh1 Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Quite an exciting signing this if it goes through, just hope we keep Cisse and that we can accommodate Perez in the team. Hope McClaren stocks to what he's said about playing decent football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest antz1uk Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Few twitter rumours that his agent has let him use his private jet to get to newcastle today. Mark Douglas saying it's more than likely going to be tomorrow. That is what is sooo wrong with football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Much prefer him to Dost. Not sure we will get Austin now though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 So after waiting around no decent teams wanted him and he's decided to sign for us after all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Get in there! Far happier with this than Austin. A bit riskier but just a more exciting prospect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Much prefer him to Dost. Not sure we will get Austin now though. We won't, makes no sense to buy strikers who are not comfortable outside the box for big money when it's extremely likely we won't play with two strikers.

To be honest as we're likely to play one up due to De Jong starting the season with Mitrovic and Cisse wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. Get Mbemba in and then another CB and we'll be heading towards being a decent outfit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the attempts to sign Thauvin though it might be on the cards anyway. I use disappointed in the loosest way possible. I really mean my low expectations will be fulfilled.

Agreed, my only issue is Aarons injury record. If he was a reliable player injury wise i wouldn't be so adamant about it, i'd still want one for squad purposes as the rest of the options are shit but it wouldn't be something of so much importance otherwise.

I like Aarons but he's a young lad who was barely fit for a week last season. We need a regular in there who can cross from the left unless Cabella is definitely in McClaren's plans for next season.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Two signings down, 20 more to go. At this point I would take a quality CB and start the season with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bench strength is looking pretty good as it is. But Thauvin would be a nice cherry for the cake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 We'll be back for Thauvin I reckon, though it'll be a hard deal to conclude considering they probably don't need the money and he doesn't want to come Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 We could play a diamond since we have some nice midfield depth now. However I don't think our fullbacks (well left back options anyway) are strong enough to take on the attacking responsibility. A wide player is a must really.

Haidara would be the only option if Cabella was playing. Not ideal but probably the best we can do without signing another genuine winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
