Brock Manson 0 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Smalling whose barely featured this season and who has about 2 seasons of premier league experience. Nice one, Woy. That said I'm also glad he's not playing because he'd undoubtedly get injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10972 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Carry on Cabaye: Newcastle chief Mike Ashley will reject ALL offers for favourite player Yohan 22 Mar 2013 22:30 French string-puller is also set to be named Toon captain if Fabricio Coloccini leaves in the summer PLUS Massadio Haidara knee-scan latest Newcastle owner Mike Ashley will refuse to sell France playmaker Yohan Cabaye at any price. Ashley warded off interest in several stars last summer by quoting an automatic £25million transfer fee for all of his players – including regular sub James Perch! And he will do the same in the coming off-season with midfielder Cabaye, who is Ashley’s favourite Toon player, the man who makes the side tick and who will become skipper if Fabricio Coloccini leaves this summer. Argentina defender Coloccini has spent the last few weeks at home with a back injury, but should be fit after Easter. He wants to join San Lorenzo in his homeland, and the Magpies could waive a transfer fee to save his £3m-a-year salary. Meanwhile, it has been confirmed full-back Massadio Haidara has escaped a serious knee injury after THAT horror clash with Wigan's Callum McManaman on Sunday. In a statement, Newcastle said: “Massadio has very fortunately escaped any significant bone or ligament damage following the dangerous tackle by Wigan Athletic’s Callum McManaman on Sunday. “We are very pleased that the extent of his injury is less severe than first feared and is limited to bruising to the bone and soft tissue damage. “Depending on the speed of his recovery he should be fit to play again in early April. “Massadio will continue to be assessed over the coming days. “He has been very lucky that he has not suffered more serious injury and this positive diagnosis in no way lessens the club’s views with regard to the severity of the tackle from which it resulted.” Ashley warded off interest in several stars last summer by quoting an automatic £25million transfer fee for all of his players – including regular sub James Perch! £25million ...

David Kelly 1260 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Less happy to see them saying we'll let Colo go for nowt to save his wages. I accept he'll be away but we should be demanding a fee or him to pay his way out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Nice segment now on Football Focus with Edgar Davids. Think it's fantastic how a lot of the top Dutch stars of the last generation seem to start out by earning their stripes when it comes to coaching credentials. Something some of our own could learn a lot from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wages players get at all levels over here is pretty scandalous like, no wonder so many teams are in financial trouble. Wish they'd enforced FFP a bit tougher, so teams couldn't compete if their wage levels weren't say around 60% of turnover. Sadly with the new tv deal wages are just likely to increase instead of the money being invested in youth facilities and community projects.

Tom 14013 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Yeah it's doing nothing for competitiveness. I don't mind when a player grows & earns a pay rise but when it's simply Club A having more money than Club B it canny be pretty annoying. Nasri is on over £200k at Man City and he's done fuck all for a long while, he's got no fight. We need a system which will make the league competitive & boost the national team. Have the obligatory Youth Training centres like in Germany or relegate teams. Have 6+5 and safe standing with a pint on the terrace. At the moment English football is turning into a nightmare, pay your money, sit down & shut up basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
