Newcastle United transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

It's fairly obvious we are saving our money for next summer in order to strengthen the side for life back in the EPL.  Mccarthy and townsend are examples of players who have demonstrated they can cut it in the EPL so the club are happy to bring them in this January provided they are available for a reasonable fee.  Judging by the round of Everton rejecting £16m it doesn't look like we will be able to agree a reasonable fee.  If so Everton can keep him.  He will prob run his contract down and go for free in a couple of years.  It's sheer greed.  £16m for a player who can't get in the first team.  We may just have dodged a bullet if we miss out.p

 

McCarthy cost £13m 3.5years ago before the transfer market massively inflated. Any competent Premier League player is going to cost a minimum of £15m now. Just look at the daft money Palace are spending on mediocre players.

 

McCarthy has actually played very well this season since getting his fitness back too. Previous two seasons he was pretty poor and we'd have probably snapped your hand off for £16m. Especially pre-takeover.

 

I suspect £20m would get it done if McCarthy wants to leave. Otherwise, I think Koeman would be happy to keep him in the midfield rotation regardless of the sums offered.

 

Premier League prices are crazy but the only solution is to buy from elsewhere.

 

I know prices are crazy like but I can't agree that any competent Premier League player has to cost a minimum of £15m.  But aye like you say prices are very inflated and the only way to avoid it is to buy from abroad.

the thing is 1878 is basically saying you'd have to pay the same money for mccarthy as they've just paid for schneiderlin who they presumably think is a better player :lol:

 

it's a sellers market for the PL mind, i get that, it's just stupid really

It says loan at the end. It's just a rehash.

 

Are they trying to claim that Mbemba goes to palace on loan, Townsend comes here on loan, then either club can swap or purchase after?

Unnamed Championship club have bid £8.75m for Mooy from City. I've liked what I've seen from him, can't be many down here that it could be from?

Swansea interested in signing Crystal Palace winger Lee Chung-yong. Two top four Championship clubs also want him

 

 

Also just realised how tough our next set of games are, we really need to bring some quality in.

One must be Leeds, otherwise he'd not say 'top four'. Makes sense that we'd be the other.
