Minhosa Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 When the clubs scouting team seemingly has a remit to spend most of its time hunting for freebies, clause breakers and damaged goods with big upside potential it can't exactly complain when one of it's own decides to run their contract down. I expect him to be forced out for a couple of million. Pull the other one. Eh? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 If he's decided 100% that he wants to run down his contract and leave for nothing then telling us that won't be a great help no, though it'd still be for the best for us IMO If however he simply wants to leave 100% (wether from a move this window or for free in a year) then it would be a big benefit to the club to know that. They'd then know that they need to sell him for the best price they can get ASAP and get a replacement in. But they aren't going to do that while they think there's a chance he'll stay. Do you honestly think he hasn't told the club this, and is just trying for some reason (I'm not sure why) to string them along by saying well I might sign one, talk to me later? It's blatantly obvious that he wont sign a new contract and has been for a while. I personally expect that he has explicitly told the club this, but even if he hasn't it's quite implicit from his refusal to even negotiate about it. As Tron says, what possible advantage would it be to the club or the player to come out in the press and say so explicitly though. Everything points to him wanting to move for his career, not for money, and if so it would be in his interest to move this season rather than next, however he is quite honourably if you ask me allowing the club to decide whether to let him play out his contract or sell him to a club with bigger aspirations where he has more chance of being picked for his country. He's not agitating for a move, he's not got his agent making trouble in the press to lower his price and attract interest, he's just quietly letting things play out. Spot on.

He's not agitating for a move, he's not got his agent making trouble in the press to lower his price and attract interest, he's just quietly letting things play out. It's about Enrique explicitly telling the club what he wants, as you mentioned. I have on the other hand have doubts that he's done so. Sadly there's an increasing trend among players (well guided by agents) to see their contract out in order to cash in on signing fees.. That's a big predicament because the clubs have put time and money in developing them. But when players leave for free clubs is left with no money to reinvest in facilities, new players etc. Hopefully we'll see a development soon. If not I'm afraid Enrique tries too see his contract out. The only thing that is worse than him leaving, is him leaving for free. I want a solid replacement, which will be difficult if we don't get any cash for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Toon Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Well Enrique might prefer to leave and go to Liverpool or Arsenal, but if they don't want to buy him there is not too much he can do about it. He'll probably end up staying and play out the last year of his contract and leave on a free (like Barton). Or get sold the last day of the transfer window, when we are desperate to get some kind of fee for him, resulting in us getting a couple of million and having no left back.

Don't think it will come to that. I think it will be competition for his signature. So we'll get some money for him. And we'll use that money to sign Mbenge, who we presumably already have established a connection with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I honestly think he hasn't told the club that? Yes, what reason is there to assume otherwise? Refusing to talk and stalling on a contract isn't the same as making his intentions clear, its aimed at doing exactly the opposite, honourable isn't the word for it. Also, you don't see a reason why he'd want to string people along rather then coming out and saying what his intentions are?, really? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 He wants to leave and we want to sell but neither can happen if there are no offers. Stalemate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Robin Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Surely the reason he has not asked for a transfer is because he wants his loyalty bonus and the club do not want to put him on the transfer list because they do not want to pay it, which they would have to if he does not ask for a move.

toontownman Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Can't see why he has become such a cunt all of a sudden. To be honest we should be going out and buying someone to replace him. We need competition in that area anyway so if he does end up staying... a) its his fault he might not be starting every week. b) we have decent cover if one of them gets injured.

Maybe he's just waiting to see what develops, he's in a good position at the moment. He might not be desperate to actively look for a transfer.

Skirge Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 ALAN PARDEW CONFIRMS JOSE ENRIQUE IS SET TO LEAVE NEWCASTLE UNITED THIS SUMMER – EPL NEWS (0) (0) Posted By: Matyn Stinson Category: Football (soccer) News Alan Pardew confirms Jose Enrique is set to leave Newcastle United this summer – EPL News Newcastle United manager, Alan Pardew, has confirmed that the want-away full back, Jose Enrique, has refused to sign a new contract with the Toon and will leave the St. James Park in the current transfer window. Enrique, who joined Newcastle United from Villarreal, has been a standout performer at the St. James Stadium. The 25-year-old was a crucial member of Newcastle United’s that earned Barclays Premier League promotion two seasons ago. The Spanish defender has emerged as a target for a number of clubs after Enrique impressed immensely for the Toon last season. European and Spanish champions Barcelona, Arsenal and Liverpool all have targeted the Newcastle United left back. Barcelona are searching for an established left-back to replace the aging Eric Abidal. Arsenal recently sold their experienced left back, Gael Clichy, and Arsene Wenger has now targeted Enrique to replace the Frenchman on the left side of the Gunners’ defence. Liverpool are leading the race for Enrique’s signature. The Reds have been linked with the Spanish defender for some time as Kenny Dalglish is looking to sign an experienced left sided defender. Pardew has confirmed that the want-away left back has decided not to sign a new contract with the Magpies and has publicly expressed his desire to play for one of the top Premier League clubs. “He’s made it pretty clear that he still won't sign a contract and that his future may be elsewhere,” confirmed Pardew. Newcastle United manager expressed his discontentment over Enrique’s refusal to sign a new contract but he has insisted that the club will positively deal with the situation. “I'm not really comfortable with that, but we will have to deal with it and we are still hoping that he signs a contract with us. There has to be doubt over that situation,” Alan Pardew concluded. Jose Enrique has been one of the consistent members of Alan Pardew’s squad. The Spanish defender missed only two Premier League matches last season. http://blogs.bettor.com/Alan-Pardew-confirms-Jose-Enrique-is-set-to-leave-Newcastle-United-this-summer-EPL-News-a83223 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also doesn't say he's "set to leave" at all, it actually says his future "may be elsewhere". I know he's likely to go, but the media take the piss sometimes.
