McFaul 35 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I thought that article was quite informed....until he used average newspaper rating as evidence of good form. Aye, the atmosphere in the bogs were slightly better yesterday I thought. I saw someone who looked like you, but I thought nah can't be, not ginger enough and not 7ft9.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Was on Stevie watch aswell yesterday. Saw two candidates. One looked a bit too banjo playing and the second one looked pretty close but taller, plumper and greyer than I imagined. However if you had a Greyish top, White trainers and were with a White haired older fella then maybe it was you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue shirt and a wool jacket, I was lookin round for you as well, but my candidate looked like he'd been sniffer poppers for years and had more wrinkles than you close up.

Have a small pocket of lads near us who are obviously evictees and kept trying to get something going but it was like a library tbf. The 18 - 21 section seemed to give it a good go.

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 If we don't bring in Pieters it'll be because we weren't willing to spend an extra £1-2m or so. Pathetic. I'm glad that we have you, bravely diving behind the scenes to tell us what's really going on. It was just a presumption based on apparent history, didn't mean to upset you.

Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I saw a bit of Santon when he broke into the Inter team with Mourinho there, looked a very good prospect. Imagine him and Enrique at right and left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awful. Sulley got a smashing left-foot, can play left-back and perform with great precision. I would really like to see him in Black & White.

Aeris 0 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 It's possible he's gonna pose as Joey Barton's replacement, but I would certainly try using him as left-back, Santon on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 707 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Muntari was abysmal for Sunderland but excellent for Pompey 2-3 seasons back. Still not interested. Santon coming here is a very exciting idea, I have to say, but I note that his agent is the one talking up this move: Inter Milan full-back Davide Santon is in talks to join Newcastle, according to the player's agent. Santon, 20, is under contract with the Serie A giants until June 2014 and is also a reported target of Roma. ''At this time there is no possibility that Santon can join Roma because right now the aim is Newcastle,'' said Santon's agent Claudio Vigorelli to Corriere dello Sport. The Italy international has been with Inter since 2008 and made 16 appearances in all competitions during the first half of last season before going on loan in the second half of the campaign and making 11 league appearances for Cesena. See that bit about him being linked with Roma? Could be the usual agent bullshit to get Roma to up their offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then, pretty pointless discussing his strengths and weaknesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 So we're going for a player who isn't a natural LB, and has been out of form for a while. As opposed to a player who is a natural LB and is on form. No doubt because the former costs a couple of £m less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4224 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 form is temporary. the lad has talent for sure fits in with the policy. he's a good lb too right footed or not its arguably his best position its where he made his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As opposed to a player who is a natural LB and is on form. No doubt because the former costs a couple of £m less. This is going to be a mainstream policy tbf. Much as I'd like to be signing the current cream of Europe, they're out of our reach. In all seriousness, if we're signing slightly marginalised, but basically talented players at a discount and theres a real emphasis on bringing them on according to their personal needs we can get some good players together. The alternative is very very ordinary 'proven' English players who come at a totally nonsensical transfer premium. If the backroom really is a more sophisticated set up these days then that can be a viable alternative way to make some progress-because it's pointless thinking about competing on transfer fees, taking a real world view.
