Still think it's wierd that we're signing a player who will be injured for another six months.

I find it strange when say they expect better signings than Edmilson. Who do they expect us to sign? The likes of Terry, Cannavaro and Puyol? I think some get a bit deluded by the take-over...

 

Spot on. People have to understand that money doesn't equal the best players, as the Mackem's are finding out now. If you've got no Europe, no real chance of winning a trophy in the next season or two then no one really big will want to join. Chelsea was a freak takeover, they threw money about like nobodies business.

Even Chelsea were struggling at the beginning to sign the real world stars. They got knocked back a lot tbh.

Sign him up now before he gets fit and wins over other clubs. Nah that is shit that i just made up.

 

If we sign Ed and Eid then i shall be a happy man as they are some quality signings.

 

I still hope we dont lose Martins to an English club...

he is worth signing even though the he is injured for six months, as long as he is wearing the newcastle shirt.

 

Why ? does it have healing properties or something ?

They were in the Champions League at the time too.

 

Edmilson is a good player, I'm not sure if he'll be up to the physical side of the Premiership but as a player he's technically very good, with the likes of him, Barton and Rosenhal we'll have player capable of playing it around on the deck, unlike the lot we've shipped out.

Not overly pleased by these transfers but at least there are some more bodies possibly on their way. Always considered Edmilson a 'luxury' defender and worried that he might not adapt well to the prem but maybe Sam wants him to do a Campo sort of job. Very good with the ball and vast experience of reading the game, and a World Cup winner also <_< Though so was Roque Junior....

 

I guess I am just expecting us to spend bigger now that Ashley is here and when there are players such as A. Diarra available for 5-6 million I think we should be looking at this. Maybe he wants to bring in Edmilson (even an injured one) if he wants to bring in another brazilian and help him settle in. BRING ON ADRIANO bahahhahahaha! Get Big Sam's psychologist on and rid him of the infamous paddy k party syndrome

 

You rate Ameobi yet you're 'not overly pleased' with the prospect of Edmilson and Eidur? :huh:

 

Never really rated Eidur as high as others do and feel he hasn't been the same since he missed that critical chance against Liverpool in the champs league semi in 05. But Sam knows his game well and he could definately do a job for us. I just feel that last season we really lacked physical presence and fitness so I'm just looking forward to the big african and african-french guys to come and shake up the squad.

 

P.S. Shola will impress Sam out in Austria and will then prove all you haters wrong next season!

 

I can understand why some people like and stand up for Shola but if you rate him higher than Gudjohnsen you're quite clearly a fucking nutter :unsure:

 

I don't rate him higher than Gudjohnsen because clearly he hasn't achieved what the G-man has or had as much time in a first team but I will not be overly impressed if we lose Martins for 13 mill and sign Gudjohnsen for 8-10 mill. I'd rather Gudjohnsen than Owen tbh as I feel he would add more to the team.

G-man for fuck sake :D

What and Shola is your scat brother? ;)
