Newcastle close in on £6.5m Liverpool ace?!?

[smokinsteve]

Absolutely no point in selling Riise until we have got ourselves a top quality left back. Aurelio is even worse than Riise and Arbeloa is better on the right. Until we can find ourselves a better left back, we should keep Riise.

 

I agree...

 

If there will be nobody coming in before the transfer deadline, whats the point of selling players to reduce our squad and options?....

 

Arbeloa out for 3-4 weeks....Aurelio is too dodgy imo..

 

If he wont be replaced dont sell him

 

simple as

[silverlining]

We can't let JAR go unless we have a very good LB to replace him.

 

Aurelio is fucking shit.

[Newman]

Sell Riise for the £6.5, actually drive him to Newcastle for the sale..

 

And get back on track for Ezequiel Garay

 

 

 

I Can't drive but i'd buy him a train ticket to Newcastle to get rid of him.

[Mr T]

I say get rid.

 

Read a stat on RAWK the other day.

 

Shots since last scored.

 

Lots of players around the 10 mark.

 

Riise = 90.

[smokinsteve]

Yeah lets just keep selling players halfway thru the season with no replacements...

 

 

Brilliant.

[X11LFC]

How do we know that the money will be put back into our club? I don't trust anything these days

[Anubis]

They can make a bid, but will that twat Hicks authorise the sale?

[greenoak]

Of course the yanks will authorise SALES

 

Its money off the overdraft / loans so when they take DIC money its more profit for them.

 

I fully expect plenty of sales and very few purchases now.

 

I also see everton being the successful team in Liverpool if the yanks stay long term. This will be like the tories winning the next election, it spell 4 or 5 years of lies and cheating for the working man, NHS getting screwed etc etc

[TG3]

There is no point in selling players without suitable replacements.

 

Momo I am not arsed about becuase we have the likes of Gerrard/Alonso/Masch/Lucas but the same can't be said about LB can it.

 

I am not a fan of Riise at all but I don't see the point in weakening our squad at this stage of the season bearing in mind we are still in 2 cup competitions and trying to finish 4th.

[RedinSweden]

I would keep riise above Heinze. He is finished after the knee injury.

 

Cant believe we are going to let one of the best holding midfielders in the world just leave like this. Gutted.

 

I agree, but JAR never gets played there anyway.

[Unrighteous]

I'm against this sale unless we've got a replacement hashed out.

[Hazel Motes]

I'm against this sale unless we've got a replacement hashed out.

 

See you've storted out your avatar aswell. Nice!

[RedinSweden]

I'm against this sale unless we've got a replacement hashed out.

 

Insua, Aurelio, me?

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Under normal circumstances I would laugh my arse off that the idea that somebody wants to give us 6.5m for an inept attacking, non-defending full back.

But these aren't normal times.

[Unrighteous]

See you've storted out your avatar aswell. Nice!

 

 

Yeah... Wednesday at Midnight. Apparently today is the apocolypse.

[Unrighteous]

Insua, Aurelio, me?

 

Yeah... I want Insua to start seeing Premiership action(hell FA Cup action will fucking help) before he gets throw into the mix.

[G Richards]

I'd sell Riise. We can cope with Arbeloa and Finnan as the fullbacks, with Aurelio and Insua giving another option. If we really need a new lb after the others have had a chance to shine, then address it in the summer. My vote would go to Lahm (don't know how much he'd cost though).

[aws]

Every sale eases the financial pressure on the yanks.

[Jonte]

Do you know what we paid for him? £4,6m.

[WaltonRed]

should of kept Warnock. Give Insua a go there.

[Soleilrouge]

To be fair to Riise, he is a good defender, it's going forward where his game has deteriorated.

 

Thats the funniest thing I have heard in years

[jackofdk]

Thats the funniest thing I have heard in years

 

I am by no means a fan of Riise, but in fairness he's been an integral part of one of the best defensive units in the world for the past couple of years.

[DT]

I am by no means a fan of Riise, but in fairness he's been an integral part of one of the best defensive units in the world for the past couple of years.

 

Yeah, imagine how good it could have been with a decent left back.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

should of kept Warnock. Give Insua a go there.

 

Indeed, Warnock would have been/was no worse than anybody we have tried in that position since.

[Thants]

Woah I just remembered in my dream last night Crouch got sold to Newcastle and he scored within 2 seconds of coming on in his first game.
