    It might have been Michael Johnson but we really don't need both, unless we're about to sell one of our first choice central midfielders.

    I guess there's Sebastian Larsson, if he's still on the radar.

    I wish we would stop faffing around and trying to get players who are a massive gamble. I'd like us to sign someone other than Ben Arfa who is just a good proven top-flight player. At the moment we're going for Ireland who, if he doesn't re-discover his form, would be an absolutely appalling signing, and Puncheon, who is unproven in the top flight and unproven against EPL-level defenders.

    For a club who is trying to be so careful with money and signings, we're looking to take on two players who could be good, but could just as easily be an utter waste of time.

    If we signed Jason Puncheon I think it would be a waste of time!

    Is he better than Routledge? I doubt it. Is he good enough for Newcastle? Hope so but have my doubts

    I think that Niko Kranjcar, who turned down a £2m move to a German team (cannot remember which 1) would be a better buy

    £2m for a proven, top class Premier League creative player would be a brilliant buy imo

    Or even nobody. I think if we did not sign anybody, that could be better than wasting money on average players

    Someone on 606, where I just briefly looked, suggested Aiden McGeady as a potential target. He's in Russia at the moment, I'd prefer him as he's a winger, but don't know if anywhere credible has reported it.

    So much talk of bringing in a new midfielder. We could really do with cover for Jose and a more reliable/proven striker.

  15. Don't know who Tomas Rincon is but Vargas, in my opinion, would just get swamped in this league. I can't see what he's better at than Arfa, we might aswell stick him upfront.
