We Are Seeing What’s Available In Transfer Market – Hughton

January 9th, 2009 by Ed Harrison · 238 Comments

Chris Hughton will be glad when the January transfer window is over, because it’s certainly a hectic time for clubs, and especially at Newcastle United this winter.

Chris Hughton - he’ll be glad when January is over

Chris talked about the transfer window today:

“Eventually we will be glad to get January out the way.” “It’s an inconvenience, there is plenty of speculation going on but we have to put up with it.”

“All you can do is get your team and tactics right and make sure the morale is good.” “And the morale is good here.”

“Morale is very good – one thing the players are aware is that there is speculation everywhere.” “We’re happy with the squad we have and we want to bring in two or three who can boost the squad.”

“The priority is to keep what we have because we are happy with the quality.” “At times when we have picked up injuries the strength of the squad has been tested, we’d like to come out with more players than we went in with.”

“It’s a busy period not just for us, for all clubs.” “We are seeing what is available.” “People are working hard to make sure it is done the right way.”

And Chris looked forward to the Newcastle game with West Ham tomorrow, where a win would certainly be more than uplifting to Newcastle fans, who finished last year down in the dumps a bit, after the team lost 2-1 at Wigan on Boxing Day, and then suffered a rather humiliating 5-1 defeat at St. James’ Park by Liverpool three days later.

The Liverpool hammering was completely unexpected, but our defense ion that game looked terrible and it could have been 10-1 if it were not for Shay Given, who had a world class display in the first half, but then suffered from depression after that game.  You really cannot blame Shay too much, as he just wants to see Newcastle get a decent team together, just like the fans do.

Chris talked about the game tomorrow:

“It will be tough, they are on a good run, they have had some impressive results.” “And they have done it the way West Ham play traditionally, we can’t afford to underestimate.”

“We need to focus on our game – we are on the back of two defeats and we want to get back to winning ways.”

A win tomorrow will go some way to raising the depression that is Tyneside right now. A win tomorrow, a win on Wednesday night against Hull City, two good new players in next week, and things will be flying high for our game away toi Blackburn a week tomorrow – a game we can also win. :D

First things first and we need a win tomorrow.

Howay The Lads!!

    Felipe Mettioni ?

  • 3 Amsick0fthis // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:28 PM

    still not confident about this window thought if were ganna make a few signings would of got the first by now
    unless were waiting for last day to panic buy again

  • 4 Robby Bobson // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:28 PM

    A think a cheeky loan bid for Carlos Vela should be made :D .

  • 5 nufc1902 // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:29 PM

    GET MCGEADY!!!!

  • 6 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:32 PM

    Will be gutted if Barton is sacrificed for Ferguson…

  • 7 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:35 PM

    I am convinced that this current regime do not have a clue on how to run a football club.

  • 8 nufc1902 // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:38 PM

    when was the last good thing tht happened 2 newcastle? im finding it hard 2 think

  • 9 Midjew // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:41 PM

    So interested to see WHO they are trying to bring it. I liked the whole, South American and Youth Player idea.

    Alot cheaper and interetsing. Bassong Great example could sell him for 4times what we brought him ALREADY.

    Hope Joe dont take it to the older over rate over paid players.

    Get young ones in, Arsenal Make it exciting with no money so could we.

  • 10 tino97 // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:46 PM

    Massive couple of games for us in the league. West Ham and Blackburn. It will be tough tomorrow. We need to start doing the business against the teams around us! I’d be over the moon with 4 points in these 2. Maybe too optimistic. A couple signings too! Maybe I am asking too much now.

  • 11 toonoholic // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:47 PM

    “Eventually we will be glad to get January out the way.” “It’s an inconvenience, there is plenty of speculation going on but we have to put up with it.”

    oh boy just shows we are close to being a selling club

  • 12 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:49 PM

    nufc1902,
    SHOLA SIGNING AN EXTENSION..lol

  • 13 GraemeR // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:52 PM

    “The priority is to keep what we have because we are happy with the quality.”

    With this attitude we are as good as relegated – we all know there is no pace in the team (without Oba), no creativity in midfield, ExEMO et al want to leave and the likes of smith and shola will not leave – not to mention the likes of Barton.

  • 14 pancho // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:52 PM

    I think it would be nice to come out in Feb with no players gone and 2-3 additions but I havn’t a clue if that will happen either Chris!!!!

  • 15 nufc1902 // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:52 PM

    TonyGreenSupreme,

    hes alright, but its only him, hes scored 2 main goals 4 us, in the man city game, we drew and against the makems we lost, so hes not really tht big. maybe if owens signs or if we sign mcgeady then i would be happy

  • 16 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:53 PM

    toonoholic,
    Unfortunately I believe that under Ashley we have certainly become a selling club.
    We have gone back to the McKeag days.
    Second rate football and fans disrespected.
    How my heart bleeds…………

  • 17 Waddle's mullet // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:54 PM

    every one is available at the right price chris.

  • 18 Waddle's mullet // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:55 PM

    im available at the right price too!

    i’m offering knee tremblers at half the going rate

    anyone interested

  • 19 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:57 PM

    Once 3-4 players have come in then it will be a good thing when it closes. There generally isn’t much business done over the weekend so it could be a longer wait for those players though. I was hoping one deal would be complrted today but that was being optimistic.

  • 20 Waddle's mullet // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:58 PM

    I will smash you fu(king knees if i find out who you are

  • 21 Keith // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:58 PM

    can never understand why so many people on here think we are gonna get relegated , i dont see it myself , we are not too good to go down but on our we can give anyone a game and i firmly belive there is no chance of us going down, we do need players in but they do have to be of the right quality no point bringing in players for the sake of it, they need to improve the 1st team not just the squad

  • 22 fostino // Jan 9, 2009 at 9:59 PM

    Steven Defour maybe

  • 23 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:00 PM

    Waddles Mullet

    Is that idiot back on here again impostering?

  • 24 Michael12 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:04 PM

    We need not to panic buy. Players will be overpriced in this window be as players are released. Look at Bridge, Defoe neither worth anywhere near what the respective clubs have paid. Some suggest Upson worth 12 Million. What a Joke.

    Judgment should be reserved for until the end of the window.

  • 25 Waddle's mullet // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:05 PM

    doing my head in mate.

  • 26 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:05 PM

    I can see the logic in selling Cnz,Smith,Cacapa etc and to some extent Given. But what concerns me is some of the utter pants that the press have linked us with.
    We must buy a 2 FB’s and an AM with creativity and a good ratio of goals.
    Do not sell Barton or Geremi…
    Geremi can go in the summer, we are going to need his experience and versatility for the remainder of the season.

  • 27 GraemeR // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:06 PM

    Keith – lets see what you think after tomorrow – you may be joinging the pessimists.

  • 28 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:08 PM

    Waddle’s Mullet

    There’s only Ed can sort it out and im not sure how often he visits these comment sections. I sent him an e-mail about it before so hopefully he will read it and do something soon.

  • 29 D.C. // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:09 PM

    Hey Ed, you omitted half the quote in your title.

    “We’re looking to see what’s available (for six pence and a used pair of keeper’s gloves).”

  • 30 Dóocéy // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:13 PM

    Like the sound of Hugton about looking at whats available but not you Waddle’s Mullet when you say “everyone has a price tag on them” Hughton is contradicting you there lol!
    I can’t see us signing Taiwo and I must question why we didn’t go for Sebastien Puygrenier? He’s a fine talent and now Bolton have him for the rest of the season.

    I have always had a preference with Axel Witsel and I’m sure anyone who knows upcoming talent wil know who I’m talking about. Excellent prospect, would cost in the region of £10 – 12 m but would be worth every penny, big clubs have been sniffing around so I don’t think we’l be his first choice if we went for him.
    Heard rumours about Sunderland in for Stevan Defour who is another great great player with a big future ahead of him.
    These are the players we have to look at.

    Anyone been talking to David Craig since?

  • 31 buddy // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:13 PM

    lads,

    hughton has proven time and time again that he is clueless and he has never had real success anywhere. at this stage i wouldnt listen to much from him or JK. all contradictory bull. about as reliable as David Craig esquire

  • 32 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:16 PM

    fostino,
    This is what Wiki says about Defour:
    “Defour is now established as the new Belgian golden boy after Vincent Kompany, and with his burst of pace, vision, passing and little shimmies, he could be that nation’s main playmaker for a decade to come”.
    Sounds interesting, will struggle to oust Butt lol….

  • 33 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:16 PM

    Dóocéy

    So have Bolton got a good deal with that player then. If he is a left back then we surely should have gone for him.

  • 34 Waddle's mullet // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:18 PM

    jfk is very good at what he does in a press . fills the scum with sh!te and deflects all the flack away.

    I like the bloke

  • 35 Dóocéy // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:21 PM

    Agree with you Waddle’s!
    He may say one target and go for a totally opposite target that’s never been mentioned before!

    Re Dan157 :
    Yes they have got a very good deal as he’s been immense in France over the last season. Stable defender, quite versatile.
    This is fact but whether Bolton know something they don’t by only loaning him could be anotehr thing, personally I believe it’s because a lack of money at teh club

  • 36 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:22 PM

    Waddle’s mullet,
    I do not mind JFK other than he talks crap and contradicts himself constantly.
    He would make a great politician.

  • 37 Ally // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:22 PM

    Waddle’s Mullet I agree about JFK

    his first statement was great and got the fans texting like mad.

    “I am only here till the club is taken over, then kevin keegan or alan shearer will be manager”

  • 41 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:26 PM

  • 44 Doocey // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:28 PM

    Yeah but a lot are dissapointed too you know, I would’ve liked King Kev back because of his ability to get teh best out of players and his ability to attract big names.

    Kinnear is doing fine though!

  • 45 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:28 PM

  • 59 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:36 PM

    The person is quite clearly an American. No one over here uses the word ‘buddy’. I think most of us have a good idea of who it is.

    havent had a reply from ed yet.

    where is every 1

  • 69 RyanToon // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:45 PM

    who do people think this wind up is?

  • 70 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:47 PM

    Tom_Toon

    Yes but i’m not stopping on here it’s pointless. I think Ed it going to get it sorted out soon.

  • 71 Shot Bru! // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:48 PM

    Hard to tell which way it will go tomorrow against the Hammers. I would really like to see Lua Lua on the right and Jonas on the left, but that won’t happen unfortunately. The good thing is Owen loves scoring against West Ham.

  • 72 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:48 PM

    I’ve actually been observing the comments and I have been on since 9:07 or something, I can swear on my life on that one.

    Its sad that there is still someone on here pretending to be me.

    He sounds nothing like me and to be quite fair I bet there are doctors looking for him at the mo.

  • 73 spyro // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:49 PM

    dan dont think that is tt

  • 74 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:49 PM

    Dan157 – None of the comments under my name since 9:07 were me.

  • 75 spyro // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:51 PM

    this is beyond the joke tt have you reported it

  • 76 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:51 PM

    Shot Bru – That is what I want to see aswell. Duff annoys me, gets in good positions but has no pace to do anything.

  • 77 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:52 PM

    Spyro – If that is you, I am very sceptical atm, I have emailed Ed at leas 14 times in the last 2 days.

    The best he could give me was: ‘I have emailed the person using your username and asked him to stop’.

    If I keep getting that response I will actually just leave for good.

  • 78 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:52 PM

    yes tt i had the same email

  • 81 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:57 PM

    steveyo – Change that to ‘nob’, it is probably only one snotty nosed idiot.

  • 82 fostino // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:58 PM

    re: tonygreensupreme

    he would be a cracking buy…..exactly what we need – an A.M. with good set pieces with bags of potential

    re: doocey
    axel witsel would be also be a cracking signing, doudt standard leige would like us take their playes tho and tawio at L.B would also be a dream and onunhofor back up at R.B. – these four buys would be quality young signings that would completely change my opinion of CASHLY with a strikers like gudjohnson or ????

    then we could ship out cacapa, smith, duff, butt, viduka, geremi, aka deadwood (and ameobi or xisco) in the summer

  • 83 micepie // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:58 PM

    If it weren’t for injuries we WOULD have a very good squad (minus one central mf perhaps), but I suppose many teams can say that.

    What about looking at current foreign internationals who play in their own country, such as Argentinian players at Boca and River Plate etc. Not that they’d necessarily want to move from home, but the Prem could be an attractive option.

  • 84 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:59 PM

    Steveyo

    We try ro but if you come on here reguarly you will find that there is a moron on here using other peoples names. You see that comment number 77, well i didn’t pe that and no doubt they will start doing the same sort of thing to you soon.

  • 85 Ally // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:59 PM

    Joe needs to get the lads up for tomorrow!

    he sud just charge in the dressing room and go f******* wild, puncing walls and throwing tea cups!

    come we need three points!

  • 86 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 10:59 PM

    *type that

  • 87 Dóócéy // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:00 PM

    Right, tomorrow isin’t a MUSt win game but we could do with a win and I think we’l get it.
    The fans are soo important tomorrow and me living in Ireland would love to be there but haven’t had chance.
    Will be going to the Toon very soon as the Euro is quite decently matched to the sterling.

    Waddles Mullet still there?

  • 88 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:00 PM

    micepie – That is a good idea, something I look at too. Especially if it is a weaker league and most of their international teammates are playing abroad, it shows that they are quality.

  • 89 Dan157 // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:01 PM

    Has anyone seen this with Mike Ashley, first time i have heard his voice.

    What am sayin tho Dan is if you ignore an ignoramous they get bored and go away.Just talk about the things this site was intended for and ignore the chaff yer knaa wot a mean mate!

  • 93 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:04 PM

    Right, Im going for a shower so any comments from now, under my name on this thread are not me. I have given up posting on the other threads, so it is just this one to look out for.

  • 94 steveyo // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:04 PM

    dan 91 is not me

  • 95 Shot Bru! // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:05 PM

    Tom Toon your’e spot on with Duff, it’s amazing that Kinnear still hasn’t sussed out that Jonas is a much more effective force down the left hand side. It reminds me of his reluctance to partner Bassong with Colo in the centre of defence. As for Lua Lua he has a nice turn of pace, a good first touch and a couple of nice tricks, tomorrow would be an ideal game to start him against Ilunga.

  • 96 TonyGreenSupreme // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:05 PM

    Dóócéy mate,
    We do need a win a win tomorrow to restore confidence and belief.
    Prediction – Toon 2 Whu 1 (EMO will get one)

  • 97 Colombus // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:06 PM

    I’m from Norway and I have not heard anything new about Skjelbreid. Might be possible though!

  • 98 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:07 PM

    what i meant to say is iam going to have a shower with my boyfreind and give him a good bashing

  • 99 Lasse // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:07 PM

    Skjelbred would come in we were in for him, he is a toon- fan :)
    But rosenborg will not sell for less than 3mill.
    Still not convinced about Skjelbred, but then again I didnt want us to sign Brede Hangeland in the last window. He has been immense for Fulham so far.
    If we were to look to Norway, I rather we took a look at left winger Trond Olsen of Bodø/Glimt. He is as fast as Oba and has a shot almost like Robert. He made 10 goals and 13 assists this season in 26 games.

  • 100 Stuart // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:08 PM

    I’m having a tenner on 2-2.

    It’s Joe’s favorite score!

  • 101 Tom_Toon // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:09 PM

    comment 91 yeah steve lets talk about gay sex

  • 102 Loop // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:12 PM

    This window we should sign :

    Goran Pandev
    Miguel Veloso
    Vincent Kompany
    Tranquillo Barnetta

  • 103 AO // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:12 PM

    SORRY lads didnt meen wind you up but sirjasontoon got me banned and got back on my way and now ed cant ban me agen . so looks like your stuck with my wind ups

  • 104 Dóócéy // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:13 PM

    A win would be an excellent one to boost confidence alright but if we lose its not like we’re going to emplode!
    Hope we really get a win and think we will. Parker if playign will be so important to WH tomorrow and could well be the decisive factor of the game

  • 105 AO // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:15 PM

    hope you beat them tomoz lads

  • 106 Ally // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:15 PM

    Listen lads this is an absolute crucial game

    we have to win our home games, especially home games when the opposition is in and around us!

  • 136 Matthew Tom // Jan 9, 2009 at 11:48 PM

    I cannot remember one occasion on which Chris Hughton has said anything remotely interesting or insightful, and absolutely nothing I’ve seen suggests he has the quality needed even to be a decent basic coach, never mind an assistant manager.

    I’ve nothing against the bloke personally, I think he’s a nice person, I just can’t see why he has a job at our club. Has our defence improved (and it has a bit) because of him, or because of Kinnear? You have to wonder. I didn’t see any improvement before Kinnear arrived and it seems to me the Spurs defence was an obvious embarrassment in the last couple of years, so why was he even hired in the first place?

    Hey Ryan I have a mate on the police computers. They monitor sites for instance pirate dvd’s, fake sports wear and terrorist activities. It will be really funny if this or those pric-s get a knock tonight or tomorrow. Another mate at his workplace told me about a scots lad who had visited an IRA sight at his work. The police came to his work at the same time(next day) he posted, found out who he was and arrested him! HA HA .

    I was on earlier then the numpty started impersonating people, I have been out down the pub for like 3 hours, had a few drinks, come back and wanted to talk football.

    But the imposter is still on…the fact that they have spent all night getting satisfaction of winding people up on the internet shows what a sad life they have got.

    I no i said i werent going to comment again buy hey…some news actual toon fans may want to know. Who knows if its true.

    Michael Owen has a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ with Manchester City to sign for the richest club in the world this summer.

    Owen has held talks with City officials, including manager Mark Hughes, in the last few weeks and told them he will join the Abu Dhabi-owned club, on the condition that they remain in the Premier League.

    Just before Christmas, Owen, 29, announced he would not sign a new long-term deal at Newcastle in order to leave his options open.

    None of the ‘big four’ clubs have expressed a desire to sign him this summer, but City have agreed to meet his £90,000-a-week wage demands and as long as Owen stays fit between now and the end of the season a deal, in principle, has been agreed.

    Owen has scored only 29 goals in all competitions since moving to St James’ Park three-and-a-half years ago, but has remained largely injury free this season.

    If Michael Owen joins Man City he will have proved himself to be one of the biggest mercenaries ever to have played the game. We all knew he only came here for the money but that would just prove what sort of person he is. Man City if they get beat tomorrow could easily be back in the bottom 3 behind us again with more than half the season gone. What ambition is there in joining city, a bunch of unsettled billionaires who don’t give a toss about who they play for. Wayne Bridge, come on man like this guy is interested in playing football.

    The cat is out of the bag lads. Mr Harris has put the record straight – theer will be no “driving the club forward”. Ashley will do the absolute bare minimum, hope upon hope we don’t get relegated, and sit tight for the economic upturn (then sell). Unfortunately the upturn he craves is a long, long way off. We might as well all go to sleep for 3 years and hope we aren’t in the fizzy pop league when we wake up. That’s all there is.

    Newcastle United are set to snap up free agent Peter Lovenkrands.

    The Daily Mail says Lovenkrands is to join Newcastle. The 28-year-old has been released by Schalke and is expected on Tyneside on Monday.

    Løvenkrands??? really?

    Well being a Dane i know of him, clearly… He is very fast, but there are other Danes i would prefer over him. And if he is released on a free, its always suspicious.

    This is a joke! The comments should be disabled, and there should be a proper forum to go along with the blog. This is useless!
