    Rumours that Celtic have asked for Besty on loan for the rest of the season. Really? If Pardew sanctions this, i really doubt his qualities in assessing player's ability if he keeps Shola - Not to sound too gloomy, from what has otherwise been an ok window.

    Thoughts?

    I'd be surprised unless we have something shocking planned in the next 30 mins. We also really can't afford to lose our forward cover, especially with No Dembas tomorrow

    Going to disagree with Zulu again and say I think it would be a good move for the club. He isn't going to get as much first team now we have signed Cisse and think realistically the club needed to move on one of him, Lovenkrands and Shola. Personally I would have moved on Shola and expected Lovenkrands to go to Rangers.

    He has rejected the move. Would rather fight for his place here.!! Would be senseless to let him go unless we got Maynard in under the noses of West Ham for £1.65mill.

    Pretty sure, bbc and sky are reporting it and I think Pardew has said they won't be playing. Yeah we're kinda buggered unless Best and Shola have a blinder

    The same Pardew that ruled Cabaye out of the Fulham game?

    Considering we tend to play 4-4-2 (or did when we had everyone availible) I'd imagine he'd get a decent number of apperances seeing as he's considerably better than the other

    We've got Ba and Cisse they will be first choice, not a lot between Ameobi, Best and Lovenkrands, though Best is probably the best of them.

    Wouldn't have minded if they offered money, as I don't rate him, but what is the point of accepting a loan bid?

    He has turned them down though, but we must have accepted it...

    Considering that Lover's definitely gone in summer, wise to keep him. Better than Shola as well, if only for the fact that he works much more for the team. Glad he's stayed.

    Yeah I think people on here overrate Best and underrate Ameobi and Lovenkrands.

    I agree about the bits about Best and Lovenkrands, but not Ameobi.

    Best is not very good at all, just don't understand how people can call him good. Lovenkrands is not too good either, but I'd class him as a bigger threat than Best/Ameobi. Ameobi is useless...

    You mean how we beat Blackburn just a few weeks ago without them?

    All 3 are decent with a good partner, the difference is Best and Lover give 100%, Shola doesnt.

    Well put. Best can poach and make a good touch, Lover can make a timely pass or run...Shola can...put his body around?

    EDIT: Shola can take a good penalty (Found something!)
