    This is from twitter:
    nufcfans France Football reporting #NUFC have bid €15m for Lille striker and Ligue 1 top scorer Moussa Sow. (via / @JamieDalton82) #NUFC #fb

    These are rumours but great if its true.

    Looks good on Youtube. Is good on Fifa.

    If Dennis Wise was still here we'd a;ready have him snapped up.

    In all seriousness, anyone with a good knowledge of the French league this season let me know how good he actually is.

  4. hmmmm, he looks great but i'd prefer Gervinho, he seems to be the scout pick.

    Sow is top scorer I think and Gervinho is more of a Winger than a striker.

    Gervinho's less of an out and out forward, (more a second striker/winger), so Sow is maybe a better partner for Ben Arfa to play off. If true then perhaps this was the thinking behind the bid.

    This, would prefer Gervinho out of the two but he is more of a winger

  8. I know but if we're going to spend big i'd prefer it to be on Gervinho. I doubt Lille will let us buy 2 of their 3 best players, so out of the two, i'd rather go for Gervinho, then buy a striker elsewhere.

    The guy who nufcfans got it off also said this:

    "Bit of a question mark about whether he can do it at the top, top level. But been excellent this season."
    and

    "Worth a go I reckon. I think you'll move for both Gervinho and Sow."

    Don't want to count my chickens before they hatch but if we got both I think we would have a top 8 side!

    We could use about 15-20 million of the 35 on them 2 alone. I can only see one of them coming here.

    Jonas? Nolan? I think it would be very much squad rotation. I wouldn't have a clue what our strongest starting line up would be! Thats got to be a good thing!

  16. Jonas and Nolan are no where near as good as any of them players, so i'm sorry, but that line up is probably the best.

    I'd use Nolan and Jonas as impace players though, and still have Nolan as a big part of our team.

    would love if he came here and another quality striker as well as a class cb plus cover for the fullbacks squad would be sorted imo

    Would replace Jonas with Ireland, as Ireland isn't a Left Winger... or maybe shift Ben Arfa onto that left wing with Ireland moving into the middle.

    Good point, with a full pre-season he can be a very useful player
