EthiGeordie Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Can you shshhh all the knee jerk reaction now..... http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20110218/enrique-clarifies-comments_2281670_2296853 He said: "I had a good chat with a Spanish journalist about how things were going this season. I told him we're having a good season and how I've been enjoying the games, playing well and focussing on the good year I am having at the club. We are ambitious and, like all the players here, we want to play at the highest level we can. "Newcastle is a great club with some excellent players and I hope we can kick on and continue to progress. "From this interview, two or three lines have now appeared in the English papers, and because they are totally out of context with the rest of the interview, I am very disappointed at being portrayed in this manner." Enrique added: "The position with my contract has always been clear and both myself and the manager have talked about it openly. "I would like to ensure that we have secured Premier League status for next season before we discuss a new deal. It is natural for me, as it is for every player, to want to play at the top level."

Minhosa Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Remind me again why he wouldn't just sign a new deal now with a sensible relegation release clause? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Remind me again why he wouldn't just sign a new deal now with a sensible relegation release clause? Because he would be in a contract still, ever heard of the Bosman ruling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Interesting stuff. If we'd not already seen the original Marca interview then it'd be easier to swallow like. Aye... Quite embarassing on his behalf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NewBoyPeetah Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I hope that means he's being honest about signing once we're safe but this all seems a bit funny. I can't read Spanish so the original isn't going to help me. I can easily believe journalists have spun his comments into their story. All in all I'm an optimist at heart so...three cheers for José!

Minhosa Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Remind me again why he wouldn't just sign a new deal now with a sensible relegation release clause? Because he would be in a contract still, ever heard of the Bosman ruling. He'd be in a contract with a release clause he agreed to and his agent negotiated on his behalf so it would hardly tie him down if we went down. Bosman only benefits players wanting to leave and clubs wanting bargains. If he's holding out for that, then he's as good as off imho. There's no smoke without fire and the most interesting comment he's made is that about 'broken promises'. I suspect there's a lot to that. Edit - if he's that worried about Ashley spending the AC money and Ashley has genuinely committed to investing in the squad as Pardew would have us all believe then why doesn't Enrique agree a new 5.5 year contract now with a £3m release clause in the event of relegation? We shouldn't be relegation candidates after large investment into an already talented squad, so if Ashley and Pardew are that sure of their vision and plans for the club why can't they demonstrate that to Jose now?

80 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Sorry, are we meant to be accusing the journalists at Marca of spinning his words, or the British press? British, apparently. Was a nice chat with La Marca apparently, so it would seem he approves of what they published. And they published something not a fantastic amount different to what the British press took out.
