He'd agreed personal terms and Newcastle had accepted the fee. He was 95% on the way. Spurs were by all accounts no longer in for him but then Levy strikes again. Agreed about the mercenaries part.
I think our business is done for this window, hope i'm wrong like but feel we're finished. Maybe a pre-contract agreement for M'Vila
But we've already got him on a pre-contract signing from next January. Can't imagine why he'd be upset with us not being able to get him here any earlier. I'm guessing we've tried, but sometimes, **** happens and it doesn't work out.
We've blown nearly £14m on N'Dong. So I don't get the M'Vila thing if it's about money. There has to be something else, contractually-wise. I'm more gutted that Defoe is on his own again upfront. To me, that's the most bizarre thing about this window.
Just been for a slash, or as the wife puts it "shaking hands with the unemployed" and made my seventh and last pot of coffee before the window shuts and the CNN news network from America have just described the Sissoko signing on a five year contract as the most puzzling business done this window.
I thought it was mate. I read it on here weeks ago. My fault for quoting this place and not the official club website. I thought it was a done pre-deal.
I suppose Moyes sees Watmore and Asoro as options and Borini when fit. The strange thing is that Borini is out until the next window so not an option and he let Lens go. Its very bizarre this whole situation. Why the **** we left it all so late to do these deals. A shambles.

The pre contract is speculation but there must be something in it because no other club has taken a look at him.
