Newcastle Agree £5.5m Diarra Deal - Report A report in The Sun claims that Newcastle United have reached an agreement with Arsenal over the transfer of Lassana Diarra. However, they have yet to convince the player. Diarra, 22, has made no secret of his desire to leave Arsenal in search of regular football after being benched in favour of Mathieu Flamini and Cesc Fabregas, despite Wenger's suggestion that he should stay on and fight. Newcastle have emerged as the latest club interested in him, and have reportedly agreed a £5.5million deal with Arsenal for the French international. However, they have yet to get the player to agree to a four year deal worth £35,000-a-week, as Diarra is more keen on a move to Tottenham. Juande Ramos sees Diarra as his defensive lynch pin, but Spurs have yet to strike an agreement with Arsenal, who are obviously more keen on a deal with the Toons. A January move, however, is looking near certain now, particularly after he was left out of the Carling Cup semi-final squad so he could be available in Cup competitions. Tottenham are, of course, still involved in the Carling Cup, while both they and Spurs have FA Cup third round replays lined up for next week.

Ford condemns Falkirk's on-loan Newcastle keeper Krul for his 'Dida-like' antics By BRIAN MARJORIBANKS Simon Ford last night blasted the time-wasting theatrics of red-carded Falkirk goalkeeper Tim Krul - by comparing him to shamed AC Milan star Dida. The Newcastle United keeper, whose loan deal at the Bairns has been extended to the end of the season, was ordered off in tandem with Frazer Wright after an injury-time bust-up with the Kilmarnock defender. Stretching the point: Kilmarnock's Ford felt Krul didn't need to be carried off The pair were dismissed after Wright slid in late in a desperate attempt to grab an equaliser and the enraged Krul responded by punching the Killie player. But Dutchman Krul angered the Rugby Park players and fans by going down in what appeared to be a deliberate attempt to waste time before leaving on a stretcher as Falkirk held on for a 1-0 win. Wright's defensive partner Ford claimed the Falkirk keeper's actions were reminiscent of the shameful over-reaction of Dida, who fell to the deck when brushed by a 'fan' who had invaded the pitch to celebrate Celtic's winning goal against Milan in October. Ford said: "The keeper might have been hurt but he played on it a bit. He was rolling around, going back down again and then being stretchered off. I am disappointed with that part of his game and it was almost Dida-like. You don't want to see that in football. "I am disappointed but I know he was trying to play for time and trying to do the best for his team. I'm sure when he looks back at the footage, though, he will be a little bit embarrassed. "I was disappointed with Krul for the whole game because I think he started wasting time even in the first half. He was trying to play for time and trying to take the sting out of the game." In the aftermath of a fiery match, Falkirk boss John Hughes angrily accused Wright of deliberately targeting Krul during the game. But Ford leapt to the defence of his team-mate, although he admitted he could understand why Krul had lashed out at the former Stranraer man. "Frazer is not a dirty player," Ford insisted. "He thought he had a chance of getting the ball or even a spill. He was a bit too late in his eagerness to get an equaliser and that has done for him. "But it had been bubbling up throughout the game. Frazer likes to wind players up, get in their faces and give them a knock here and there. He also takes it as well. There is nothing malicious in it. It is part and parcel of the way he plays the game. "He rushed in, seeing a chance to get the ball, and got nowhere near it. You could understand the reaction from the keeper because he had the ball in his hands and got hit. It was just a moment of madness from the pair." Krul is banned from tomorrow's visit to Westfield of Aberdeen and his absence will mean a full debut for former Aston Villa keeper Robert Olejnik, who came on as a substitute after Krul's red card. However, the Bairns at least received a boost last night when Newcastle confirmed that Krul can spend the rest of the season on loan at the club. Delighted manager Hughes said: "It's great news because Tim has been excellent for us. I think the boy would agree he is learning a lot here. This has dragged on a bit but we are pleased to have Tim here until the end of the season."

if NUFC had the chance to get dunne or his teammate micah richards, for that matter, i would hope they would splash some cash on one of them...

i take it you do not care for dunne...

i hope he is not a transfer target...
