Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Hes championship standard, not even decent as backup at european level Surely European level is above premiership level so thats no surprise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeazesMag 0 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 he's a decent enough squad player, but we need better. Give the lad his due, he has done OK and always gave his best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaMoUsE 0 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 he means he's good enough for the championship but not good enough as a space filler as a "no other option" for a European squad Aye hes not good enough for us currently even as backup, so if we want to improve he gota go really. When you think of the wages off the bill this summer its a massive amount of money really. Guthrie, Smith, Lovenkrands, Ranger and Best (more than likely) you'd expect a couple of good quality players in to replace them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio 0 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I think he's done well under Pardew in the Premiership, stepped up and scored some important goals after Carroll left and formed a solid partnership with Ba in the first half of last season that helped us stay near the top. The biggest problem for me is his fitness as he seems to pick up niggling injuries, he's better than Ameobi as back up IMO. If we can bring in a better back up then go for it but unless we have a considerable amount to spend then I'd rather not ship him out and replace him with De Jong, we've got more important places to fill in the starting 11 than buying depth for the attack.

Tooj 17 Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 Part ex for Hoilett? Hoilett's already out of contract and I think he's signed for a German team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10849 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) @SkySports Sky Sports sources understand Newcastle striker Leon Best is undergoing a medical at Blackburn. http://bit.ly/ObCKcZ Edited July 2, 2012 by The Fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 5 out and 1 in so far. Not that best start to building a squad capable of coping with 4 competitions. I'm sure Pardew has it sussed though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 13857 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I like Best because I like anyone that puts the graft in. Ultimately not good enough for where we want to be but has scored when we've needed to. All the best to the lad. We need two strikers brought in now though IMO. Unless we get De Jong and a young 'un in, similar to Good (if he's signed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we get De Jong and a young 'un in, similar to Good (if he's signed). The problem is the ANC where we could be without Cisse and Ba, however if Ba does go this summer then I can see Pardew being happy with a group of Cisse, De Jong, Hoilett and Shola, plus he will have the likes of HBA, Marveaux, Sammy and Ferguson for the wide roles.

David Kelly 1244 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I'll be glad to be rid of him. Not good enough for the Premier League and didn't particularly impress for the top end of the championship either. I can't really see why we ever bought him in the first place.. He puts the effort in but I can't say that I've ever thought he looked more of a grafter than anyone else and his lack of a footballing brain ususally meant that the effort he was put in was wasted. I've got nothing more than him not being good enough against him though so good luck to him at Blackburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bias 3 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 3m is a steal for him like, i'd have taken 1/3 of that price Apparently that could rise if Rovers get promoted like the Nolan deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Pardew has it sussed though Losing players who are shite is a good thing. The likes of Smith and Best shouldn't be anywhere near our team. Bit disappointed about Forster and Guthrie though. The problem last season wasn't a squad thin on numbers, it was a squad thin on quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
