sammynb 2929 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Friday brought confirmation that Newcastle midfielder Mehdi Abeid has made a permanent switch to Greek side Panathinaikos for an undisclosed fee. The subject of interest from German side Fortuna Dusseldorf last month, Abeid was known to favour returning to the club where he spent a successful loan spell in the 2013/14 season. I cannot believe he chose Panathinaikos and Greece over Fortuna Dusseldorf and Germany! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammynb 2929 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 The bloody socialist. It was more the german girl fetish and than living in a country where you are never sure if you are going to get paid/be able to buy groceries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 14055 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 And a healthy portion of Pommes Rot-Weiss on the side. (I'm not even sure if this is an innuendo any more ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitman 2188 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 iirc Happy Face predicted there would be about 50m to spend on new players this window. If thats right, then we can expect any further transfers to be funded from departures. I think we'd need the majority of Williamson, Bigirama, Gouffran, Marveaux and Vukcic to leave before we sign another first teamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Vukic has gone by mutual consent hasn't he? At least he's said so, if the club haven't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 6148 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 He had at least two consecutive seasons where major injuries saw him out of action for extended periods. Has obvious talents, though speed was never one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 6148 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 slow as fuck wasnt he? After the injuries it certainly seemed that way, though big players can sometimes look slower than they actually are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Cisse going to Galatasaray for £3.5m. I guess if that finances this kid, and he turns out to have been worth it, that'll be a good deal. Lot of 'ifs' there, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 It was all in that article that ANS posted. I don't think it's a hugely reputable source, I was really just relaying the info into the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4964 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 And for clarity, the more interesting bit was the bit about Cisse, less so the kid currently at Wolves that we're supposedly interested in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
