[WaltonRed]

no competeing for trophies something newcastle will struggle to do

[Red Nick]

Shit, Fuck bollox Wank :no

 

I was so happy this afternoon at the thought of him commng here.

 

If we spend 6m plus on pennant when we could have had duff for 11m then that will just show how stupid we are as a club in the transfer market.

 

Whatever you say about Newcastle they really do support there manager in the transfer market, if they ever get a proper manager they could be really dangerous

[bobhorse]

never works out like that.

 

In Your dreams you have been to Istambul

Istambul the place where dreams become reality :)

Left sided players we have: Riise, Zenden, Kewell, Gonzalez. We need a RIGHT sided player. As far as Im concerned Gerrard is the best right sided midfielder in the world. He just happens to also be one of the best central midfielders and under Houllier once or twice a very good right back. i personally think the signing of Alves is more of a threat to finnan than Gerrard. Midfield of Gonzalez. Alonso, Sissoko & Gerrard. Class

[ChicagoRed]

I think it's clear there's still money left if we are bidding for Duff. I'd rather see it spent on Alves and it may be this is just hint to Sevilla.

[TurnstileB]

I bet there's another 20,000 Geordies at St James' on Monday afternoon.

 

.. and they come up here and sing about us 'never getting a job'.!

What happened to "Trust in Rafa", Nick? I reckon you've been reading so many of Rash's posts that you've become infected. With Rafa, it's never about the expensive player or the cheap player, it's about the right player.

[Paul]

Haha Newcastle's recent spending is ridiculous for the return they've got.

 

Luque £10m

Duff £10m

Owen £17m

Boumsong £7m

Emre £5m

Parker £5m

 

Over £50m - crazy.

And to think that Rash regularly holds Newcastle up as a club whose transfer policy we should be emulating. Mind you, they've become so ridiculous that even he's had to move on in hs arguments. It's Spurs now, isn't it Rash?

[MLB]

Parker, Emre and Duff are decent buys for them, to be fair. They're just unlucky with injuries as a club. Well, either that or their training methods are shit. They were only really robbed on the Luque and Boumsong deals, and most people on here probably thought those two players were worth that at the time.

[Rashid]

Not emulating at all. I think it is ridiculous that we can't compete with the likes of Newcastle for players without being told they are imminently going bankrupt.

[Brownie]

I was scpetical about those Duff stories anyway so i'm hardly surprised how it's worked out.

 

I hope get our deals sorted though, it's starting to piss me off.

I am not bothered about it, we have 5 weeks left and that is a long time. We have our targets the problem is that Rafa wants a good few players and we don't have the budget other big clubs have despite our success.

 

Obviously Rafa wants Alves and a striker however he cannot pay more than £10M and still buy a decent striker. I think ideally he will pay the money for Alves and get Trezeguet on loan but I suppose Juventus will want straight cash as this stage. I think Rafa needs £20M but only has about £12M to play with, I could be wrong.

I agree, you can bang on all you like about, right price etc etc, but surely nobody can deny that our transfer dealings are a fucking joke, i don't know why or who is responsible so i'm not pointing the finger of blame at anybody but why does every single deal we're involved in turn into war and fucking peace, it is boring the tits off me!

[MLB]

The only thing that'll piss me off is if we actually end up paying £12-13 million for Alves after all this.

Thats' the problem with some people on here Paul, they seem to think we should be paying the top dollar for players, if you want a car and you think you should pay £500 and the person selling says they wan't double, waht do you do. I would politely tell them I was no longer interested and walk away.

 

No matter how much you want soemthing if it don't make financial sense, as Zammo used to say " Just say No"

 

 

I still can't belive people are whinging over our transfers this summer, we have bought in 3 new players. All have good reviews optimism is high, but I get the feeling that some people just want more and more. It's better than last summer and look how the season panned out.

 

Get a grip you crying buggers!

I have got over the pissed off bit Ive got a headache now. We really should have any signings done and get them into pre season training and settled.

It really does give the moan squad ammunition, hope it all gets sorted soon and not left to the final hour - as we know that tend not to work out.

[WaltonRed]

When do they fly out for the training camp? I'm sure Rafa would want any signings done soon so they can join them and bed in with the players.

Im sure Rafa would of wanted the signings by the start of pre season, not just the training camp.

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Tuesday.

 

And Rafa has said he wants signings done and dusted by then.

I read it as it says. Duff wanted to play on the left. Stop crowbarring stories from nothing. You sound like a tabloid. ITS VERY BORING.

Ok, you've made your point now and got the desired reaction. But do you seriously believe that we were in for Duff and not just linking ourselves to give a reminder to Sevilla and Alves, who is probably in Spain seething that his dream move is still on hold?
