Pardew 'on guard' as Newcastle step up search for defender..

These are completely different, Man U had known this was coming a long way off and had chance to prepare, they also delayed the transfer until it suited them. They didn't just accept a bid that came in nine days before the January transfer window deadline.

 

Krul? Elliot is nowhere near as good and they won't play Harper because he's part of the Joey Barton clique.

 

I think its just to avoid the situation with carroll when he said 100% he will not be sold.. to be honest even if we do sell a key player im confident we will get in a good enough replacement.
