Already states on his Wiki page that he is set to join us. A little premature....
-
I'd take him for sure he'll be a good PL striker after a run of games, hes not as slow as some are making out, pace isnt his main attribute but hes by no means pedestrian, he's got the odd touch of brilliance about him and coming from arsenal he'll be a good all round footballer but as Ive said every other time hes been mentioned he thinks hes so much better than he is, this might be remedied with a run of games in a PL first 11, apart from when he was on lona at birmingham the most league starts hes had in a season is 17 and he got 9 goals out of them.
and every so often he does something that makes me think he could be a really good player
like that, I dont think we will sign him though, dont reckon ashley will pay the rates, fee or wages. be happy to be proven wrong though
At the moment, its either us or Stoke interested in taking him. Do you think Stoke would also cough up for him? I think its Bendtner that needs to lower his expectations. I would be happy to see him prove himself with us.

Apparently we are linked with him in the Daily Mail today and it was just on SSN. Jury is out on this one for me. Can be very frustrating but he has never had a real chance to get regular football. 8 Million though....???

Its all over SSN now. Just showed Pardew shaking hands with the players during training and then blanking Smith and Barton.
-
Linked with Benayoun today, would have him in a heartbeat.
That will never happen, but what was the source?
If true, always good to know we are chasing even more midfielders and no hint of a decent striker coming in....

NEWCASTLE’S striker hunt has hit another snag after Paris Saint-Germain confirmed they want to keep United’s top target Mevlut Erdinc.
The big-spending Ligue One club scotched speculation that United have had a £6.5million bid for the player accepted – saying Newcastle are yet to table any offer.
In another twist in the long-running saga, PSG have poured cold water on suggestions that a move for Erdinc is gathering momentum.
While United’s interest remains, it increasingly looks like they will have to go elsewhere if they are to add a striker before the big kick-off in a fortnight’s time.
A PSG spokesman said: “The fax machine is on, the door is open, but no-one has made a bid.”
So if The Sun are to be believed, we are now chasing after Jermaine Defoe? It said if the Erdinc deal falls flat, that would be our next target. Yeah, right...there is more chance of Defoe coming to us then Daley Thompson being my grandmother
-
Would of been nice to of got him but like its been said we dont really need any more CM's. Tiote, Barton, Cabaye, Guthrie, Gosling. Theres more pressing areas.
Cabaye has been brought in to create chance through the middle and i'd imagine he will give us more off the ball too.
Erm...Guthrie? OK, I have said it before, i know how much of a pain in the ass Taarabt is, but i would rather see him in our shirt then anyone else's. It won't happen anyway so thread over.
-
Its already been said, him and Ben Arfa in the same team, mouth watering stuff. We are used to the players at Newcastle that are harder to manage off the pitch so it won't be anything different with Taarabt, just sign this guy ASAP!!
-
Am I the only one that thinks 8 goals in 28 starts for a striker isn't that impressive? It's ok, but I wouldn't go crazy about it.
-
Are they sure he is only 26? He looks way older....
Looked good in a piss poor West Ham side. If his knee's hold out, could be a good signing
-
Just reported on ESPN
http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/...net&cc=5739
Maybe he realises he will just be a squad player next season with the new signings (allegedly) coming in? Either way, its not good news.
-
If its a straight choice between us and Arsenal we've got no hope tbh
Well, not necessarily. Does he want to sit on the bench most of the time and play in the Carling Cup, or does he want regular 1st team action alongside his buddy in Tiote? I'm more edging towards he will choose us. Still, always ready to be disappointed though....

The last two poster's made me think, they are right. My apologies Deadman. I have deleted the last post on the other thread. You are who you are and nobody is perfect. If we were all the same, the world would be a boring place.
-
I think he has massively improved since playing in the role he plays now at Wigan and if we played him the same way, him and Ben Arfa could link up really well. He was a moody twat I know, but he is a player we could only be better with. I have no idea why I keep reading on here (CT for example) that we should play him at left back? Why on earth.....oh, i can't be bothered to finish that obvious sentence.....
-
That was brilliant. Why have we consistently play better against the top teams this season and crap against teams we should beat? Arsenal (twice), Liverpool at home, Manu U at home, Chelsea now twice, we have played as good as our opposition and deserved the points. Then we play the likes of Blackpool and its a different story.
-
Loads of players struggling to stay on their feet. Has it been raining?
Its Simpson that keeps slipping mostly. Needs to change his boots big time

I work for Monster and Beats by Dr. Dre and know what a good businessman Lebron James is through our PowerBeats association with him. Seems like he has his head screwed on.
Maybe we will see Lady Gaga join forces with Ashley?!!
-
I totally believe this story. My ex girlfriends brother is french and he all of a sudden started supporting Newcastle a few months back. He said it was about Ben Arfa and how Newcastle have been with him. Any French people on this site?

Something I have done to give back to the people of Japan. My heart goes out to them.
100% of any royalties I make from this will go to the aid for Japan.

ashley wont sell cause hes just brought pardew in that would seem a waste so the only for him is to invest in players weather he likes it or not
If I can translate this correctly (and I thought Chinese was a tough nut to crack) Ashley can do what the fuck he likes. He is the owner. I think you will find the "whether he likes it or not" argument a bit thin on the ground. (Unless you saw it on Fifa 11, then that's ok then)

I was watching the Liverpool game yesterday and it really pains me to see him in the red strip. I must say, I have always had a disliking to Liverpool so it pains me even more to see him. The problem is, I still really like Andy Carroll and I want to see him do well, and for England. He is still a Geordie and I'm not convinced he really wanted to go, but money talks in this game.
So do you still like him or do you want him to fail?
-
I hold my head in disbelief (and that is not about the possibility of us signing Gervinho...)
I'm glad I didn't buy that Bentley in the end, it was crap in Gran Tursimo.

I didn't think I would ever say this, but i am actually starting to like the guy. Not just because of the results and whatever he is saying during the half time break, but just the way he conducts himself in interviews. I absolutely loved Hughton, but honestly, I never had that feeling we would be safe from relegation, but even before the Arsenal game, I started feeling we were playing better as a unit and passing better. Lets face it, he has even got Jonas playing well which can only help. I'm not going to get carried away as there is still a long way to go in terms of development, but I see the team spirit Hughton started get even stronger. I think the key will be how we do in the transfer market come summer and what influence Pardew has on it, and if he can keep the likes of Tiote, Enrique etc...
Now I just want to see Ben Arfa back in the black and white.
