Just to write the words. We have signed a defender who defends. From Spain, not France. Who was a Champions League finalist. And who is over 26. The most important detail which everyone has overlooked - it happened ON A FRIDAY AT 11AM. God bless Jesus. God bless Rafa. The Friday Announcement is back.
yay, experienced professional defender with great record who hasn't just been bought to be sold on for profit. This presumably means a certain lazy wall-punching waster to about to be sold.
takes me back a bit to my old Sunday School days what a friend we have in Jesus you can imagine all the headline writers now as well sharpening their pencils Newcastle need a miracle to save the Toon Jesus saves the Toon etc etc
A Championship side signs a CL defender...not many clubs could pull that one off. Shows that we are still a top draw.
It's all down to the Rafa effect lads. Hell, he could resign Shola and I'd back the slayer to be world class.
Absolutely, hopefully he's working on the ultimate deal. The one deal that will ensure legendary status in Geordie folklore. Sammy as well perhaps, but he's still just a pale shadow of the slayer.
Top signing this. A few of you know I lived in Marbella for 3 years or so and was a regular at Málaga, he was captain at the time. You're getting a leader, he's strong and he likes a battle. He's very good at tackling and reading only flaw being he can get caught out if space is behind, standard modern day RB. He's very tidy going forward and was incredibly loyal to Málaga he had offers from huge clubs before Atletico it was a sale at the time the team was being stripped back. He was born in Fuengirola, and he fought for the shirt, I can see him buying into the crowds and being a really big player for you. I'd have been more than happy for us to take him, don't worry about his lack of games in Madrid, Juanfran is a superb RB.
Just noticed someone that those down the road have been credited as having an interest in and which probably sums up the differing standards between our two clubs. No, I don't mean the ex Newcastle duo Santon or Insomnia. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/spor.../sunderland-afc-transfers-black-cats-11557328 No, when Newcastle go for Jesus Sunderland go for Moses.
