News today in talkSPORT that Newcastle are interested in signing Hoffenheim winger Ryan Babel, the former Liverpool and Ajax winger/striker, who seems to have fallen out with the coaching staff at the Bundesliga club.
Ryan Babel – available from Hoffenheim – maybe for £5M?
Certainly when Liverpool signed the former Ajax player back in 2007, Newcastle were said to be interested in bringing the then 20 year-old to Tyneside.
Babel has been told that he can leave Hoffenheim this summer, and he has also been omitted from the Hoffenheim squad who are currently at their Austrian training camp.
Presumably his agent will now try to find him a new club in England, and we fully expect they have already contracted Newcastle about the player.
It seems that both Swansea and Tottenham have also expressed an interest in Ryan, who has 42 Dutch caps, but is out of favor with the National side too, at the moment.
Hoffenheim won the battle to sign the Liverpool striker last year, and they paid £8M for him, but the Bundesliga club are willing to take a loss on a summer sale, and that will certainly interest Newcastle – who always like a good deal.
Maybe they could go in with a £3M offer, which would not be unexpected for Newcastle - to lower the Hoffenheim expectations, and in order to get a really good deal?
The other thing in Newcastle’s favor, is that the Dutchman is said to be so keen to get back to the Premier League, and he is even willing to take a cut in his £50K a week wages – and that’s another reason Newcastle may see a possible bargain here.
On the other hand, Newcastle are well endowed with wingers, although this lad can also play up front, and he is certainly a good technical player, and maybe Alan Pardew can get the best out of the lad on Tyneside.
The lad certainly has class – although he was also inconsistent when on Merseyside.
Ryan, who stands 6’1″ tall, also has something to prove, which is another reason Newcastle may see a good fit for him on Tyneside.
For the record, Ryan played 146 games while at Liverpool with 22 goals, and last season he scored 6 goals in 51 appearances for Hoffenheim, and in his career he has 298 appearances and 48 goals.
What do you think?

@Ibiza according to TalkSport Babel has had a falling out with the clubs coaching staff, being forced to train with the reserves: http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/football/premier-league/transfer-rumours/120723/spurs-join-newcastle-and-swansea-chase-ex-liverpool-star-177?

TDS…Surely we’re not going to group all £3m wingers together? Not saying you’re wrong in this instance, but come on
Plus, Obertan will come good…mark my words (so you can throw them back at me later down the line
)

9 Munster Mag // Jul 23, 2012 at 2:49 PM
He cant be as bad as Obertan. I still cant believe we spent 3mill on him when there is talent abroad like Abeid. I still maintain the deal happened when Pards was talking to Alex Ferguson re Barton and Twitter accounts. It was within days i think!
10 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 2:49 PM
Sholadona (Is that Indian? – Only joking)….Any idea what the “falling out” was about?
If there is one thing I’m pretty confident with these days, is that we wont bring in players with the wrong attitude, makes for a nice change.

13 blaydonracist // Jul 23, 2012 at 2:54 PM
hes shit, wouldn’t want, also i feel we have enough power down the wings with jonas, marvs, raylor, obertan and benny so we clearly have depth and if we are really struggling with injury ba could fill in
alson on the newcastle wikipedia page it has debuchy in our team, i wish people would stop making these edits as they clearly jinx us, people done it with de jong and he went to the other linked club in monchengladbach so if history follows suit then debuchy will go to inter, then douglas will go to either fulham or west ham and anita will go to SUNDERLAND!!!!, that can’t happen

With Sammy steppin up his game so much this pre-season, dont need him. Been a long time sincr ive seen a youngster put in the 45 mins sammy did vs fenerbache, every decision he made was perfect…his dinked pass to abeid was special and something i didnt know he had in him.
17 HullMag6 // Jul 23, 2012 at 2:58 PM
Re Debuchy, hope this is concluded soon.
Trust the management, they should know what theyre doing. heres hoping…….
Ps any more wild rumours circulating? Eg Adam Johnson @ Greggs with DL & LC. Sakho spotted at Jesmond dene lol.
18 JP...from The Rock // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:00 PM
I hope we’re not after this player. Compared to what we’ve been linked with this a very big step down in class. He has not been successful ever since he left Ajax. I think we should steer well clear of this lad. Nothing special and seems to be on a steep way down in his career.
Verdict: Not bad but no thanks, next.
19 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:00 PM
Munster….Indeed
Shola….Interesting. Doubt we’re in for him, not sure on what basis, it just doesn’t seem a likely fit.

21 hotdog // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:01 PM
Right I’ve had enough. We are getting linked with Ryan babel now, seriously? I was hoping Beardsley going to Liverpool was not true years ago but at least it was the only transfer story and it was correct. Ohhh to have those days back!
22 JP...from The Rock // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:01 PM
Adam Johnson, Marvin Martin (too late now), Remy, Gameiro are the type of players we should be after for that LF role.
23 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:02 PM

Robby…Pretty sure Mike will have penalty clauses in their contracts if they eat at Greggs without him.

It’s too late. I’ve already made the generalisation. Ginola was only £2.5m, so that’s OK (;
25 Robby Bobson // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:05 PM
Do people really think we need a 10mill signing for the LF position or CF? We have so much atackin talent…would rather that invested on a top top CB and the 3-4 million on a striker with potential….boring i know but our front 3 are the the envy of alot of league as it is!

29 NEWEXPATMAGPIE // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:07 PM
Don,t believe this for one minute!
30 Hatem's better than Messi // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:07 PM
Not sure if Obertan will come good, but he’ll have my support while he plays for the club.
Babel signed for Hoffenheim for 8M on a 2 1/2 year contract. Which is a crazy length for a 8M transfer.
The guys getting cheaper but is a serial failure.
Can Pards do some motivational magic?
31 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:08 PM
TDS….Oh god, forgot about that awful signing Ginola
OK guys, any wingers between £2.5-5m are a waste of time. Forget them
Robby….No I don’t think that. Young prospect striker to take over what Ranger should be doing at the club. Only time our striker dept becomes an issue is the ACON and injuries. Shola and a young guy for a few matches is one thing, over a month???
I am all for youth getting their chance mind, how else are they ever going to breakthrough?

34 jimmymagpie // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:09 PM
Will you lot stop believing all this sh-te! Last week I told you all that we were nowhere near agreeing deals for ANY player, and as usual, received abuse from the same old few. Well, now that Pardew has come out and told you the same, I won’t hold my breath for any apologies. They are finding out what people inside the game were warning about, that the so-called transfer policy adopted by Ashley had a limited life span. Eventually, if you wish to keep progressing the club, you heve to purchase better players, and have to be prepared to pay nearer the market price. You can’t go around telling clubs that they will have to pay through the nose for your best players, and then put in pathetic bids of half the going rate for other clubs best players. Ashley will not sanction paying £6m on another right back, UNLESS he is told that Simpson is going. He will not increase the derisory offer for Douglas, who one member of the coaching staff has described as a bigger, younger, Bramble – lots of potential, but prone to too many stupid errors, and with a very suspect temperament. Stop believing all the cr-p put out by the wan-ers on SSN and the written media, including the local tos-ers, who know f-ck all!
35 MagpiesFlyHigh // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:10 PM
I’m with Robby.
Wud rather sign DM/FB/CBs in the £6-8m range.
We’ve got some real talent on the books already up front.

39 Robby Bobson // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:15 PM
Ibizatoon – well cisse and ba could be around if ivory coast beat senegal….i suppose if GC and Pards think douglas is a 10mill pound centre back but available for less then its understandable we can get another luxury signing with what we’ve saved.
40 check the toastie // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:15 PM
Always thought this lad had some potential, however his time has come and gone, bit like Obertoons, both player lack courage and heart for me.
41 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:16 PM
Jimmy….So you’re not pro ashley’s transfer dealings then? Do you know what has been offered then and whether these are in fact first and final bids?
Sorry if that sounds like i’m starting a dispute, just generally curious
P.S. Is it still ok to believe what I read on twitter?
42 MagpiesFlyHigh // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:16 PM
Jimmy
I think we should put in offers that are within about 20-30% of the selling club valuation….Euros for £.
So if Ajax want £9m for Anita then offer 8m Euro…still a bargain…
43 jimmymagpie // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:18 PM
Markaccus _ didn’t mean you mate, the usual suspects know who thay are. Hotdog – yes you’re right mate about craigie, but you have to be careful with what he puts out as well, because he’s a mate of the heirarchy, and is particularly close to LLambsarse.
44 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:18 PM
Mark…Wasn’t it directed at certain people and not everyone in general?
Robby….Very true. Who would you rather lose for a month Tiote or Ba/Cisse, taking in to consideration player morale etc as well as the obvious benefits to us as a club?
45 SupaToonKid // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:18 PM
Babel wasn’t even that bad at Liverfool but a bit inconsistant at times. He seems a realistic target as he’s tall and still 25 (in our age range), he’s quick and skilfull and would fill that LF role well at £3M he’s a bargain as Pards would get the best out of him.
I’d still much rather have Remy (think we can get him for less than Marseilles want) but I would not be dissapointed if we signed Babel and i’d love it if he played really well just to rub it into the Bindipper’s faces even more.
But as I said Remy would be more preferable as i’d rather have a CF that can play LF than a LF that can play CF (if you get what i mean) as we’d probably get more goals but at £3M then i’d drive Babel to Tyneside from Hoffenheim myself.
46 Markaccus // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:19 PM

51 RobertNufc25 // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:25 PM
Well said Jimmy…
52 jimmymagpie // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:28 PM
Ibizatoon – yes, we’ve done well with Some transfers, but the point is Ashley and CO think they can do this all time and you can’t. If you want young international players to progress your club, which is what Pardew is wanting, then eventually you have to pay closer to the going rate. It is obvious fro his comments today, that he is getting pis-ed off. Time is going on, and they’ve not brought in any first team players yet. Contrast that to Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea, and even Spurs got their centre half. I don’t KNOW the size of the bids, but I am given to understand that the bid for Debuchy stands at £4m, and will not be increased unless Simpson leaves. The bid for Douglas stanads at £3.1m, and will not be increased, and in any case, the player isn’t sold on coming to Ncle. Note that De Jong went to Germany for under £10m + add-ons, which should tell you what garbage it was when people were reporting that we had bid up to £12m. As far as I know, we haven’t even bid for Anita.
53 toonLYF // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:28 PM
IMO if bringing in a new striker and a new centre back means not getting a new full back and a new winger till Jan or next summer, so be it.
54 JP...from The Rock // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:28 PM
I am for beefing up our defense BUT Ba has already come out saying he expects to play his more familiar CF role this season and he wil not be happy being deployed at LF. In Cisse and Ben Arfa we have two positions covered. We need to sort out LF and rotate Ba with Cisse or play two up-front.
Douglas or Mbiwa would be ideal and so will Debuchy to improve on Simpson. Simpson just does not offer any attacking threat whatsoever. In defense he’s not brilliant but not bad either, we should give him some serious competition for his place.
Willo ain’t bad either but is prone to error just like Bramble was back in the day. We can do better there also.
So realistically we need to buy a CB, RB, LF and a LB for more depth in case Santon get’s injured.
55 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:28 PM
Robby…From a selfish point of view, we could probably do withouth Tiote for a longer period of time than our 2 top goal scorers. In fact, it would be great if he could time his yellow card suspension to tie in with his international commitments.

“The young right-back also interested Lyon, but president [Daniel] Masoni has completed negotiations with LOSC, with the player having expressed a preference for Lille.
Hopefully we can now agree a price for debuchy as they now have a replacement
57 toonLYF // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:30 PM

@Roppa
The old Soviet-Bloc countries are a long way behind with race-relations.
Samba should have done a lot more research instead of snatching the Roubles.
He has said he’ll stay there and fight so the racists don’t win.
He’s also 28 .. plus he’s fighting racism in Russia on £100,000-a-week over four-years.

i think you’re wrong about our transfer policy having a limited life span
the only problem has been we went in for more coveted players (better or not is up to debate, as 99% of us haven’t seen much of 99% of who we’re linked with but speak as though we do) than before. cabaye was well-known in france but nowhere else. santon had been put on the back-burner and forgotten about at inter, ba was comically underrated by the english press only because he went to west ham., and cisse, well, i really have no idea for that one because i’d seen him play many times on television and looked world-class even two years ago. (wanted him here for ages btw. couldn’t believe it when it happened literally from nowhere)
de jong has been heralded for the past two years. debuchy has had a rising star for some time that only shone brighter as of late due to his performance at the euros….
the only issue has been we’ve been going for more visible stars or stars-in-the-making and not exactly willing to take into account the added cost of a player who comes with more notoriety and publicity, more anticipation behind them.
not saying i agree or disagree with it, just think that’s been the issue
61 jimmymagpie // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:33 PM
I must go folks, but I would just like to make the point that when things get tough in transfer negotiations, you need a football man who knows what the hell he is doing, and not a blo-dy casino owner who is just rigidly following the financial blue print of the owner. Ed, I will finish by adding my good wishes of those above. Keep up the good fight, and I’m pleased for you and your family at the good news.
62 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:34 PM
Jimmy…Might not be as easy and we might not always get our number 1 target, but there are still good deals to be had. Be interesting to see what happens, I’ve put a lot of the delays down to players having other commitments (Euros etc), but would expect activity to pick up now (along with the rumours too).
Either way, thanks for your views.
63 Bloomin Marveaux-lous // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:35 PM
Just to correct a few people on the whole ‘Ashleys Transfer Policy’. It was never a policy to buy cheap players and offer low money that would be accepted.
The players we have bought well beneath thier Market value have either had a contract release clause (Cabs & Tiote), had a poor reputation and the club were looking to offload them (Benny), a free agent (Ba & Marv) or were transfer listed (Obertan).
There isn’t one instance where Newcastle have unearthed some cheap player with no reputation and pay little money and conned a club of a massive pay day.
You might question the Cisse deal but Freiburg had to sell him at that price or else they risked loosing him on a free if they were relegated.
To say that the policy is backfiring is totally wrong. The players we are after are not on a free or don’t have a realistic buy out price in their contract, it’s as simple as that.
We are negotiating and will blunt be held to ransom and anyone who claims to be Itk about the transfer policy is wrong as the only policy is players of 27 years old or under, Value for money and potential resale value.
For me Lille are inviting a bidding war as are Twente so NUFC will keep fingers in many pies until a transfer breakthrough happens.

67 Robby Bobson // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:36 PM
Totally unrelated but just watched a load of videos on NUFCTV and it seems Pards is really trying to get a possession game going.
Theres a video of him in training shouting “We need to get the ball back as quickly as possible….when we lose it tomorrow night, GET IT BACK” and post match interview from the Fener game he was talking about how well the team was working it out from the back.
Its good to hear, its possible to overdo the possession game like when Swansea played us last season, but i cant see Pards getting too far away from our strengths which is getting the ball in the box to our lethal finishers.

I guess jummy Magpie is not happy with our deals for santon, Cisse, Ba, Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Marveux, Abeid etc, etc conducted by our ” dodgy casino owner”
I don’t know how Jimmy has an alleged ”in ” at the club, because if they knew what he said about them, surely he’d be on his bike.
Anyway I don’t see the urgency for another striker. We can rotate Ba and Cisse in a front 3. Tavernier looks good and so does Abeid. If Debuchy and Anita don’t happen, so be it.
75 Marty-Toon // Jul 23, 2012 at 3:57 PM
Babel probably is better on the wing than as a striker although he can hit the target and is quite fast.
He’s a better player than Obertan all round.
Only thing Obertan has that’s better but he hasn’t used often is the close ball control and tricks at speed.
Obertan has gotta come good this season or it’s Xisco nr2
The lad wors hard in games,just needs to let hs ability come out in his game.
Annoying looking at someone so gifted running like a headless chicken at times.
Babel at between 3 and 5 million is good but at 30,000 a week

Anyway, an interesting and thoughtful analysis of the transfer policy @ 63.
However we seem (and all we know is press reports) to be placing low or very low bids for various players. Even if this is not true we might be getting a bit of a reputation which makes the selling club suspicious and reluctant to do business with us.
If agents are working the system then we may lose several targets because of our undeserved tightwad rather than canny lad reputation.

I agree with Jimmy totally, we need to pay closer to the going rate at times and everybody in football knows that Debuchy is good value at 6 million pounds and probably worth it at 8 million, seems to me that the club wants to buy players whos value automatically increases as soon as they pull on a Toon Shirt.
However Jimmy did say 2 weeks ago that Debuchy was signing pretty much promised it. Not as ITK as he makes out me thinks.
79 Robby Bobson // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:01 PM
Marty toon…
Obertan can trick at speed but usually tricks himself or becomes undecisive. Some players have brains faster than thier feet, Obertan has feet faster than his brain! Against Fenerbache, he did a step over, dropped a shoulder and burst past the full back in the box, then just fell over, so frustrating.
80 ilovetoon8788 // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:02 PM
I don’t know about this Babel transfer. Whatever we say doesn’t matter, because it’s a fact he’s a very good player on his day but just lost it. If he signs it’s all down to Pardew to bring the best out of him.
If he succeed then we have a potent winger for us. If not, than it’s just another Obertan all over again.
81 Marty-Toon // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:06 PM
Here’s Babel in the horrible red jersey….you can’t rate him the same as Obertan .
He has done so much more on the pitch at Pl level than Gabby.
Ok he’s had more playing time but he uses his skills to get the ball in the box early and often.

The three stooges are finding it hard to close deals aren’t they B-) been saying that for a while now.
On the other hand I don’t agree with the obvious FM enthusiasts for whom money is no objects; yeah you know who you are
I do think anyone owning a football club that doesn’t have any experince in such should hire so; can’t see DL being that guy???
83 Lucasd10 // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:08 PM
Go for him he’s cheap and could be decent and he can play upfront also so could be a best replacement so just go for him we need a big squad
84 Marty-Toon // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:09 PM
Robby bobson
I totally agree mate,the guy is a genius with all the skills but makes me rage when he doesn’t do the easy thing at the end i.e put the feckin ball in the box.
You know gabby,the white thing with netting around it.Thats where we need the ball put into
85 Marty-Toon // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:12 PM
Agree there Robby Bobson….
He just needs to do the easy thing i.e put the ball in the box.
Gabby,we’re tryin to put the ball in the white thingy with netting round it
86 MT // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:12 PM
no interest, Babel is not good in Liverpool.
expensive wages,he make me imagine Obertan again.

90 JDdubai // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:14 PM
Babel is the perfect type player we need to play as the left attacker, however I dont think he is up to it personally. After failing af Liverpool, why would this team pay 8 million for him and want to ship him on so quickly??? Something wrong there.
Also disagree 100% with Ed that we are well endowed with wingers:
HBA – correct
Jonas – should be DM now, no pace and wouldnt work in the 4-2-3-1 formation as goals needed from wide men with only 1 CF
Obertan – sorry no, should be a sprinter, never gonna be good enough for a top 4 club, if thats where we want to be. Tries hard but so would I, doesnt mean I should be playing though.
Marveaux – needs to prove fitness, potentially good enough but cant rely on him from start of season when he could break down after 5 games. Should be seen as a bonus player this season but not relied upon.
Raylor – ? Post 13 I think listed him, my god, on the wing??? Attacking??
Sammy – again potntial but shouldnt be more than a squad player right now.
So we have HBA (imo) who is fit and can be relied upon to play the full season, score goals, get assists etc which is what we need our wide players to do. No one else in the squad has a record of doing that for us.

He wasnt exactly amazing at liverpool, but if he’s cheap on the transfer fee and wage front then i guess its a low risk move, you never know he might surprise us all…..
94 cyprus // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:28 PM
Tough call, this Babel. Lots of unrealised potential; whenever he came on for Liverpool (almost always as a sub), he did ok. Reminds me of Sturridge a bit. Maybe for 3 mil? Looks better than Obertan… really don’t want to jump in THAT ongoing related discussion, but I really haven’t seen his blistering pace or, even once, seen him actually dribble past a player while at NUFC (if anyone has footage I’ll appreciate it)
95 Nufc-83 // Jul 23, 2012 at 4:33 PM
Lol Jimmymagpie IKN don’t make me laugh. It seems as if you want us to go out and just buy players at the fee their club is asking for rather than negotiating. Lots of clubs in the league have not made any moves or very little in the transfer market yet. We will get good deals its just everybody being clearly impatient wanting the excitement of signing now.

I still reserve my judgements about him. I agree with a lot of what Jimmy says although I have doubts about his “ITK” persona. It may or may not have been him who kept spouting false transfer news a couple years back claiming he was ITK. Whoever it was was worse than Cwarr.

ashwin…Us as we can’t get any new players in and are doooooommmmeedd with our current squad
Joking aside…It’s a tough call, i’d be more comfortable putting forward 5 teams that will be involved, but I guess that’s cheating, so will try for 3.
QPR….I think Hughes has too many ego’s to deal with and they will just implode…much like us when we got relegated.
Wigan….They lack quality. Looking at the teams coming up, I just don’t see how they’re going to get enough points, but that get’s said every year.
Lastly….ermmm….aaahhhh….f it, can’t do it. Anyone of the following, depending on how they conduct themselves in the transfer windows….West Brom, Swansea, Norwich, West Ham, Reading, Stoke, Southampton.
Hmmm….failed majorly then, if I hadn’t spent so much time on this post already I would just pass up your question. Oh well

@Ash win says
I reckon the 3 to get relegated will be in this order
Villa
Southampton
Wigan
Villa are struggling with injuries already with Bent and Agbonlahor on the sidelines and they may be short term but Injury prone
Saints don’t have the buying power of reading and think they may be a bit light for the Pl season
Wigan have lost some firepower and just got out of it in the last 8 games last year,they’ll come up short this time as they may lose a couple more influential players.Shame for Roberto as he’s class manager but they’re doomed
108 ilovetoon8788 // Jul 23, 2012 at 5:00 PM
Newcastle manager Alan Pardew has been linked with summer moves for Andy Carroll, Douglas and Mathieu Debuchy, but admits the Magpies are no closer to landing any of their key transfer targets.

Southampton are the fifth richest club in England. They certainly have the buying power of Reading, they just choose not to buy every Tom, Dick and Harry. The signings they’ve made so far have been good ones and they are definitely not finished yet.

Oh dear just checked in and Ryan Babbel? This is going downhill and I was certain we were already at the bottom.
This lad couldn’t cut it at the front of a reasonable scouse setup which had one of the most aggressive attacking midfields for some years. He has a poor game/goal ratio. Its not all about talent, it is also attitude and I reckon this lad doesn`t have the right one for us. Anyone know why he has fallen foul of his current employers?
114 Tsunki // Jul 23, 2012 at 5:26 PM
Thats 2 of them now then Ketsy. 3 if we count Scharner.
115 Big Pappa Cisse // Jul 23, 2012 at 5:27 PM
The thing that annoys me is that all of the teams above us have strenghtened their squads so far and we have stood still.
Spurs- Siggurdson,Vertonghen
Man U – Moura, Kagawa and possibly RVP
City- Do they really need to ?
Chelsea – Hazard and a couple others sure to follow
Arsenal- Podolski,Giroud
I really hope Ashley proves me wrong and does want us to push forward even further but I do wonder if he is happy to keep us ticking along. I know it is early days but I am getting slightly worried. We should have had a CB and Striker through the door as soon as the window opened

At the end of the day we all know we are only likely to spend at the very most 20 mill. The clubs above will go out and spend that on one player. We are continuing to look for good value in the market as so we can strengthen a number of positions. There is no reason in my mind why this strategy that has served us so well recently cannot continue to work.

1) When was the last time you won the PL?
2) Have you ever played outside of the UK except maybe in preseason friendlies?
3) How many times haven’t you finished within touching distance of the bottom 4?
If your big point on here is that we were relegated a few seasons back, then enjoy, but you’re not going to be able to get to us with that….poor effort

181 pawl250 // Jul 23, 2012 at 7:16 PM
Please let this be true! This guy is immense, he wasnt given a chance at Liverpool and was regarded as the next Henry when he played for U21 Holland side. He is a striker, the fact he played upfront for Holland U21.
He was given alot of compliments from Dennis Bergkamp and then was thrown out wide for Liverpool. This guy can do some damage upfront it would be a steal at £3m and hes only 25!
Look Obertan was £2m for all of you that say £3m, and he has potential unfortunatley he doesnt look interested defensive wise! I honestly think Obertan would be dangerous upfront especially if used later on in the game when defenders are feeling the effects of a PL game.
I would love this to be true though Babel is better than Obertan and I honestly think he is better than Remy for nearly 1/4 the price! I only hope he is given a chance upfront in a central position and I think people will realise just how good he is!
As for other transfers Debuchy and Douglas is a must I dont think I can handle another season with Simpson and Williamson!!!

I like joey Barton was class for the toon u can’t say he wasn’t him and Nolan r the type you need in a derby match coz the scum were sh*t scaired of them
186 pawl250 // Jul 23, 2012 at 7:36 PM
Obertan signed for Premier League club Newcastle United on 9 August 2011, for £2 million on a five-year contract < Quoted from website / others state it was undisclosed.
£3m is speculative, as is £2m but I can find more reports showing £2m than £3m! He was brought in to replace Barton who left one a free so he wouldn't have cost much!
As for Babel even Van Basten said he could be the next Henry! Look he needs to play central rather than a wide position! I would take him over Carroll, Remy, De Jong any day of the week! Liverpool didnt even use him in his prime position the same thing actually happened to Henry who before he was signed for Arsenal was played as a right winger!
Look you can all hope for the next big thing blah blah but I would be over the moon if he signed! Hope he does, and when he starts (providing they sign him for a striker role) banging goals in you will all eat your words! This kid should have went to Arsenal instead of Liverpool he would have been perfect for them.
I actually remember people slating us signing Ba last year, and I said the same thing then he has the potential to score 15 goals a season and was LAUGHED at! Look who was right, half you dont even have a clue about football and would just like to return to the spend £30m on shite days! And before you say otherwise £10m is ALOT of money for Remy who has injury issues, and his goal record for that price is not exactly amazing!
Liverpools loss could be our gain! My opinion, and I maybe big headed saying this but I tend to be right! and honest I can honestly say I had no idea who Tiote was until he came half of you didnt have a clue until youtubing Cabaye. Its the same old, same old!
As for your desire to sign RB, CB I really hope we sign Debuchy and Douglas.
Babel Douglas and Debuchy would be a near perfect transfer window!

Lol. Everyone seen this? Tackle son.
188 Ketsbaia9 // Jul 23, 2012 at 7:45 PM
This is how it may turn out for us at the end of the transfer window:
Babbel – £3m
Scharner – Free
Fanni £2m
Anita – £6.25m
Lukaku – Loan
Amalfitano – Free
Bigirimana – £1m
Koura – £140k
Total spend = £12.39m
Outgoings:
Simpson – £2.5m
Williamson – £1.5m
Best – £3m
Lovenkrands – Free
Forster – £2m
Guthrie – Free
Total = £9m
Net spend – £3.29m
That would be a great bit of business if these deals will go through.
If they do go through, my team for next season would be:
Krul
Fanni Scharner Coloccini Santon
Tiote Anita
Ben Arfa Cabaye Babbel
Cisse
189 Ketsbaia9 // Jul 23, 2012 at 7:46 PM

201 pizzicatochan // Jul 23, 2012 at 8:31 PM
Getting Scharner on the bench may be a good move because he can cover everywhere except for the front line, but the starting CB? Sorry I can’t agree.
and I don’t know who Fanni is, so this sounds a non-issue to me.

Aldereweild. He’s 9 years younger. Realistically, we’ll probably go for Scharner. He’s got a good 3 seasons left in him.
Rainman’s a classic film.

212 Ketsbaia9 // Jul 23, 2012 at 8:49 PM
No, I’m being serious. It’d be a good freebie signing. He’s a decent player. You can’t give him stick just because he scored the winner against us. He’d improve the squad and will chip in with a few goals. He is extremely versatile.

After opening their Milk Cup campaign on Saturday with a 4-0 success, United’s youngsters again hit the goal trail on Monday evening at Ballymena, notching half a dozen without reply against their Mexican opponents.
Adam Campbell led the way with two goals – one from the penalty spot – while Alex Gilliead and Greg Olley both netted for the second successive Milk Cup tie.
Rolando Aarons and Ryan McKinnon also scored for the young Magpies, who are in action against CSKA Moscow tomorrow night (Tuesday) in Ballymoney.
After beginning with a six goal demolition of local lads Londonderry on Saturday, the Russians lost by the odd goal in three to Senegal side Lusitana on Monday.

236 Phil1981 // Jul 23, 2012 at 9:38 PM
Apologies if this has already been discussed, 226 comments is a lot to read
I think wingers is the one already we need to strengthen! Of the wingers we have i would argue that HBA is the only one i consider to be good enough for to press to get in a top 4 team.
The rest all have flaws which for the most part are that they cannot beat a player (inside or out) and cannot consistently deliver dangerous balls into the box.
Jonas – Deliver is often poor and for me is not too predicatable. Awesome servant but now better served in CM.
Obertan – Cant pass, cant cross his only ‘skill’ is his pace which often means opposing LB are not so keen to press on
Marveaux – Lots of potential but as yet has not delivered.
So i for one would welcome another winger or two at the club. I always saw Babel as a very talented footballer with no hunger or desire for the game so if AP and his team can instilll this into him i think he could be a very shrewd buy, he has prem experience which always helps.
I have alot of time for Adam Johnson but cant see his demands being met by NUFC, wages etc. I also rate Matt Jarvis who i think is a more realistic target for us…

Autism isn’t necessarily a disability. Depends on how far alojg the spectrum you are. Extreme autistic people can’t enqge with opther people at all and tend to be very hermit like.
Normal autism means obsessive ,very single minded but tending to becoming repetitive, and cannot relate to other people and has no empathy and little emotional capacity.
Like I said a lot of ruthless businessmen and politicians are autistic – many of them successful.
A lot of obsessive blog trolls are almost certainly autistic

I realised yesterday Ketsy was not a serious troll, I even started giving him the benefit of the doubt as he never actually insulted anyone, and did no harm. As I suspected, he’s not your normal poster but I don’t think he’s a troll in the conventional sense, because if it’s a joke it’s a long, repetitive and extremely tedious one. I think he has a condition like autism, but is a genuine fan, and judges his players by stats, but is prone to fixing attention on certain players who he finds interesting but may fall slightly outside his normal criteria. I say entertain him. If he keeps saying the same thing, just ignore it. He’s doing no harm. If he is a troll he will change his tack and be rumbled.

I don’t really care what pardew does. As long as he builds a strong and consistent defence then im happy.
Too many times have we all seen our side dominate for most of the match but our quality at the back has let us down at certain times and have cost us. Need 3 top quality CB and 3 top quality RB/LB’s. it doesn’t matter if we dont score( which is highly unlikely when we have ben arfa, cisse, demba, cabaye and marveux who are more than capable at putting the ball in the back of the net and creating chances) because if we dont concede then we are garunteed a point!
its simple.
Its exactly what Jose mourinho did for chelsea. They won most of their matches 1-0 because all they cared about was defending and not letting your opponent score.
