Official Summer Signings / Rumours / Information Thread

There's no sell on clause in terms of anything Newcastle would receive. They got their money when we signed him, they're getting nothing else.

Not sure if Carroll getting some cash is true or not. We're not obliged to pay any of his wages as a pay off, but we might have to finish paying his signing on fee if not done so already. That might be where it comes from.

 

he will be getting loyalty bonuses as like at total unambitious lump he sat and was happy to. no way is 2mil the rest of his 90k per week contract x 3 years, thats just someone being silly.

as for newkie... on a 35mil transfer there is zero way there is a 20% ell on clause nor would there even be a 20% of profit clause... they got theirs.... and wasted it thankfully on french ****e... pardew and kinnear. I fancy the last laugh here will be loudest in the end.

 

Agree with that. The £2m over three years is £12,820 per week, that would mean West Ham are paying him £77,180 per week

 

Nicolás Lodeiro and sofiane feghouli both linked with moves to lfc (unconfirmed reports)

 

RB? Kelly and Wisdom. RB is our most covered position and the last place Rodgers need to strengthen IMO.

Johnson can play LB with Kelly or Wisdom at RB if needed.

It is not a perfect situation, but it is enough to stop it being a priority so I'd leave it for this summer.

 

By whom nabz?

 

There is an Italian striker called Immobile in their u21 team... Sounds like a perfect signing for us if his name tells us any thing

Borini scored again today.

 

I saw that and presumed it was a typo

Ciro Immobile.........Brilliant.

 

i have a friend who works at the sky radio channel in london (cant say more than that).

 

Carroll passed his medical at West Ham. Looks like that's him done then so £15mil towards Henri Ryan's transfer

 

his nickname in armenia is heno which slips off the tongue easier i suppose.

 

Could well be recycled news; I know we were linked with Feghouli a while ago (maybe last summer? possibly christmas though) and Lodeiro's name was mentioned with a few clubs when Ajax started making waves in Europe again last year.

Wouldn't complain with either, but I think we have our main targets for those positions already

 

Heno and Hendo

I prefer Henri Ryan

 

Bents for sale for 8m! Perfect replacement for Suarez.




Sorry, couldn't help it: not one paper has linked us with Bent this window and he's for sale & everything!

 

Newcastle have that pleasure this time!

 

So the Christian Atsu one has popped back up, think it is for real?

 

Wisdom and kelly have done well there but if we want those two players to continue to get injuries then so be it. They are CB's and that is where they should be groomed in my opinion, which leaves us with Johnson and Flanno really in terms of out and out RB.

Moving Johnson to LB just shows how unbalanced we are back there. We need depth in that LB position. not just depth though but someone to challenge JE frequently and often.

 

Heno means "tonight" in Welsh.

If you're going to count Flanagan at RB then surely you must include Robinson for LB?
