    According to Sky, Peter Odemwingie is 3/1 to join Newcastle this month.

    Would you be happy with this? In my opinion, this would be a perfect signing. We need a top-calibre RW or LW, such as Loic Remy (Marveaux and Ben Arfa have had their injury problems.) But, we also need another striker - we've needed another striker since Andy Carroll left. Now with Ba gone, we can thrust Cisse into the lone attacking role, but we need better than Shola as back-up, and Odemwingie, a pacy, clinical, proven finisher, would be perfect.

    Decent enough player but at 31 a bit outside our preferred age group.

    It won't happen but I'll be delighted.

    Always been a big fan of Odemwingie, long before he joined West Brom. Couldn't understand why we didn't get him at the time, shame.

    It's bullshit. He's only linked to us because we're after a striker.

    He's better than Shola. Therefore I say I'd be moderately happy if we got him for chepa.

    I'm not saying get rid of Shola, but Shola should only be used for a certain purpose and on certain days. As a target man or maybe to come on as a sub and use his strength against tired legs.

    We need a good 3rd choice that can score goals and step into players shoes when one player gets injured.

    If Cisse or our next quality striker gets injured, Shola would be next in line. Is that really what we want?

    We need two quality striker, one canny good one, then Shola.

    Danny Graham would walk over broken glass to play for us.

    I would love him here, but not as a replacement for Ba. Sorry but he's not that good. We need better. But If we was 3rd choice, he'd be fantastic,.

    I agree. I would be down to the stumps if we signed Remy and Graham and then binned Ranger..

    What would you do if we added Douglas and Sissokho too?

    I would achieve an orgasm that would explode my penis, but leave me satisfied for the rest of my 70 years on this planet.

    <laugh> So would it explode in a hospital, or would the force and ferocity of the combustion seal the wound perfectly and prevent hemorrhaging? As a weird sexual pervert, you've peaked my interest :emoticon-0116-evilg

    They had us as favourites to sign Ashley Young a couple months ago <laugh>
    Seriously though the market is so ****e that a couple of quid will change the odds quite dramatically considering, it really means nothing at all IMO

    Always quite liked Odemwinge, but he's too old for our criteria. Pardew has said that he needed to twist some arms to get Debuchy signed and so l cannot see the Board capitulating again.
    That said, not what we need to replace Ba, but better than Stroller.
