http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/25917101 Not confident of keeping him is the line now.

We wont be able to replace Cabaye with a player of equal quality, he's a finished article. The best we could possibly hope for is a player who might possibly become as good as him in 2-3 years but that doesn't do us much good now. I agree totally on telling PSG to sling their hook, they've had all fucking month to make a bid (haven't they been on a winter break in all?) and they've waited until the last week of the window. If he leaves we'll not buy, as yet again it'll leave us in a position Ashley and co claim to hate, with everyone knowing we have just received a large sum of cash and a position to fill prices will be put higher. I still have a feeling Anita was bought as a Cabaye replacement.

It's classed as a minor cup I thought.

Seen the Montpellier manager has had a dig at us now saying something along the lines of newcastle isn't the club for cabella, if he improves aspects he'll go to Tottenham or Chelsea in 6 months. What have we done to this lot? They can't resent us this much over losing MYM, unless we fucked them over in some way.

Should have got Blue Flash from Geordie Racer on the case

"A highly respected French journalist has reported that Paris have made a £21m offer, now that offer hasn't landed in Newcastle yet" These journalists dont half talk some utter shite like, they've either made the offer or they haven't there's not exactly a time spent waiting for it to arrive unless they've sent a letter with the offer on it.

Agreed, woeful film.

I'd be gutted to be losing him and De Bruyne if I was a Chelsea fan. Maybe not man utds main need as many have pointed out but he is a top quality addition for them and will improve their side.

He's an absolute embarrassment of a bloke. I hope they go down.

Been watching some youtube reels of Cabella (I kna I kna) and he looks canny, seems to track back a bit by the videos (a lot of them seem to start with him winning the ball or picking it up quite deep, in the ones I saw anyway). Never seen him in a full game or owt, so the lads that have is that his game? or have the videos just happened to catch a few of him on the rare occasions he does. Good to hear about an interest in Zouma but hasn't he also been on the phone to Mourinho? bit odd he's on the phone to everyone mind St Etienne must be fuming.

Watched a few recently: Hobbit Desolation of Smaug, meh was areet agree with others that it's too long and 3 movies aren't necessary for this book. 5/10 Silver Linings Playbook, thought it was class Lawrence's chebs are top notch, the movie was canny in all. 8/10 The Book Thief, canny watch, thoroughly depressing but good. 7/10 Anchorman 2, I love the first one, this one was a laugh in all but not as good. 5/10 Wanting to watch the Wolf of Wall Street but it's a bit of an epic, glad to see you lot seem to be liking it mind.

Horrifically embarrassing, is that fat lad who makes up songs and plays his guitar still making cringy videos in all? As cringeworthy as the bloke is he's not wrong, our lot have been bottling the derbies recently which is thoroughly depressing.

Aye, "we've agreed to sell him but haven't agreed a price" that's a fairly large part of any transfer.

After hearing shite from West Ham fans I know about how we should have stuck with Big Sam, how greedy we were and all that shite, it's class to see how much they're hating his stewardship of their team. Wonder where Sam will put his Casa Upton Park, or Boleyn Ground whichever name takes his fancy.

Aye, Williamson is clearly aware of his limitations whereas Taylor seems to think he's class. His mental play is the reason the game was tight, if he'd used his head and just kept the ball moving it'd of been no bother. But sadly his biggest failing is the fact he's a moron.

Cabaye had a class game, really close 2nd half which was disappointing after the first half. Was Santon hurt? I know MYM took a knock but didn't see Santon take any. Glad we beat that fat hippo and hope them tramps go down with the mackems.

Hope someone tells Taylor that's why he doesn't get his game much, could have easily kept possession till the half. We played really well shame it's 2-1, just hope we come out the same 2nd half and not just look to defend for 45 mins.

Good amount of bog roll in the background it looks like, very low likelihood of getting caught short in Kippax's house.

Old trampy cunt?

So you aren't grateful to have a club that's willing to possibly entertain the idea of making a bid for someone? Halfway through the window and we're almost going to make a bid, guess that's not enough for some people.

"It's a bad meth" as opposed to the healthy meth

Ohhhh boy I'm so excited about the prospect of us edging towards this bid. Just hope we can get this one across that line, it fucked us over too many times last window.

Agree with this.

Agreed. Also in Pardews defence Pelligrini does look like he's been dug up.
