Kitman 2188 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 There's really no need to sign anyone. We're likely to make top half with the existing squad. Job done, cigars all round... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Given the amount of players we'll probably lose in the summer (Cabaye, Colo, Cisse, Ameobi, Gutierrez, Obertan, Marveaux etc), all the more reason to invest in some new talent now, to give them a good half-season to integrate. One could say we did that last January with Anita, Mbwia, Haidara, Gouffran, Sisokko etc which is why the likes of a Jonas, Marveaux have dropped down the pecking order and are being shipped out.

Kid Dynamite 5890 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 No, we needed those players before we let anyone go. That's why we were close to being relegated last January and Ashley Shite himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Kinnear has been in Germany trying to engineer deal. Cisse was offered lucrative Qatar deal, but nothing happened because of potential swap. Â Terms of potential swap deal complex as Borussia are pushing for cash as part of it. Big shout to @paulfraserecho for work on story. #NUFC Â Â (From Scott Wilson / Northern a Echo) Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWalrus 0 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) Swap deal = bollocks. They always get talked about by the media but never happen. But time and time again, the fans in general lap it up. Edited January 16, 2014 by BigWalrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inochi 0 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Mark Douglas didn't mention anything about a swap deal, in his piece, like. He says they're just waiting on getting a replacement, with a loan fee, future fee and personal terms agreed. I hope he's the one that's got it right. I've no doubt we're looking to shift Cisse, but I'd prefer the competition for places - at least until the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
