just about everyone since the drog and pardrew handshake! Even fans on here with lists such as... Demba Ba Seb Bassong Jay Bothroyd Carlton Cole Jermaine Defoe Didier Drogba Niko Kranjar Seb Larsson Jeremey Menez Charles N'Zogbia Daniel Sturridge Matthew Upson
Seems like every player we talk about on here eventually gets linked with us, so Drogba for the toon!
"I'm a big fan of Didier's. I don't think I'll entice him to the north-east. I think it's a bit cold for Didier at this stage of his career. Foreign players come to these shores and some set the example for others to follow." - Pardew about a week ago. The only reason I could think he would have to come to Newcastle would be Tiote's here.
You make it sound like I think he'll be our No.9 next season. If you had of read on you would of seen my next comment which was "I'm not wanting them to sign either but to look back in the new season seeing some off the dross to the utterly ridiculous we were linked to should be interesting"
I'd rather have Seydou Doumbia - another Ivory Coaster and he is 22 so would fit the bill with our targets
