sempuki Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 From the ever reliable NOTW: TOON PLOT DECO GRAB By Ray Ryan NEWCASTLE will offer Emre to Barcelona in a bid to win the race for Portuguese superstar Deco. Toon officials will talk with representatives of Barca and Deco this week in a bid to lure the midfielder to St James' Park. New Toon owner Mike Ashley wants a global superstar at the club and has Deco high on his list. Newcastle will try and finalise the signing of defender Juliano Belletti this week and hope to discuss Deco during those talks. A Toon source revealed: "It is no secret Mike Ashley wants a high profile player at the club and Deco fits the bill perfectly. "The club plan to talk with Barcelona this week to see if the deal can be achieved and are ready to offer Emre plus around £8million in cash." Deco has always insisted he wants to play in the Premier League and is understood to be keen on a move to Tyneside. Toon boss Sam Allardyce is also tracking Reading defender Nicky Shorey and is ready to bid £5.75m this week. He is also on the lookout for a new keeper with Shay Given injured and has targeted Chelsea No2 Carlo Cudicini on loan. Allardyce said: "We do not have an experienced goalkeeper so I will be looking for one over the next couple of days. "Initially it will be on loan but we want one with the right experience."

EthiGeordie Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Deco will awesome in my opinion and he will be our best signing since Shearer. For me he is that big if we come out of this. If there no truth in this how come a rummer can be consistant like these all summer long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syrette Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Deco is pretty much past his best (he'll be 30 in 8 days) and probably only has about 2-3 decent seasons left in him (not to mention if he came here he'd probably take ages to acclimatise to the English game, weather and culture - if at all). Emre is obviously not as good as Deco but is only 26 and I reckon could do very well for us under Sam. If Ashley is genuinely after a "trophy signing" or whatever the term is I'd rather he keep Emre and go for someone younger and with more to prove. Yes, it might cost more, but we'd be better off in the long term I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deep456 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Juliano Belletti/ Shorey and Deco and I will be very happy with the transfers we did this season and with our team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Surely yesterday proved we lack a Deco-type player. There was f*ck all creativity. Too many plodders and not enough ball players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geordie Boyo Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 I think Belletti will happen, but ther rest are just spec, imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stozo Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Deco would be immense for us. He is exactly what we need, a midfielder who can create something as the only person who created anything really in the first two games was Milner. As for the talk of a RB like Belletti or Bosingwa, they are again exactly what we need, a RB who can go forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
