People regard Newcastle as being a badly run club, and shambolic behind the scenes but they're putting together a pretty impressive squad together.Players like Siem De Jong and Darryl Janmaat are exactly the type of players that we should be able to attract IMO. If they can find a regular goal-scorer this summer (surprised they're not looking to keep Remy) they should be looking at top 8 next season.
Quote from: ozzjim on July 16, 2014, 12:04:47 PMVlaar is worth, even with 12 months on his deal left, over 12 million following his world cup exploits. As such, I doubt he will be going anywhere, and certainly not to the twitchy nettle licker. Benteke - would not even pass a medical at the moment, so that story is copmplete rubbish, and if he could pass a medical, would still be worth £25 million when you look at the prices being paid for the likes of Lallana and Lovren. For me Vlaar's value should be calculated either by what relegation would cost us, or what we would need to spend to find a direct replacement. I think even £12m would be a bit too light.

Seriously, who comes up with this stuff?It does sound a bit far fetched.However, I struggle to think of a club showing less ambition than us in the top flight of late. I wouldn't hitch my career to that wagon if I were a player.It's not up to the player. It's up to us. We've already shown that he'll only be sold when we want to sell him.It's complete rubbish.

I hope you're right (and you're definitely right) about Pardew, but they are good signings. You've also got to factor in the improvement that'll be made by losing Shola Ameobi.
