aimaad22 4156 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 There could be an outgoing still. This is NUFC. Will be in the summer probably. Tiote and Colo of course. Not bothered about Tiote anymore keeping in mind how he's been playing for the last 6 months and the fact we've got good replacements in. Dont think we can do much about Colo. The key will be to hang onto Cabaye and Ben Arfa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1245 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I have to admit that I have no expectation of us signing another striker now despite the fact that they admitted we needed one before Ba left. The only hope is that we manage to find one whos got some sort of contract despute that we can take advantage of. I think we're just going to have to hope Cisse finds his form and Gouffran hits the ground running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman 2207 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 It's been an excellent window so far, and exactly what was required. If we keep all of our purples and sign a decent striker, I'll be in dreamland. Simpson and Obertan can go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7295 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Realistically if we wanted to compete on all fronts effectively we'd need all of our current players plus another two forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'd happily wait until the summer if it meant we could bring Aubameyang in. I'd much rather we went for him than Van Wolfswinkel, as signing the latter will just give us the exact same problems as when Ba was here. Whereas if we sign Aubameyang he is able to play anywhere along the front line and is blessed with an abundance of pace and skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas if we sign Aubameyang he is able to play anywhere along the front line and is blessed with an abundance of pace and skill. Is this based on you seeing him play or just reports? I've only seen him play once (against Marseilles) but going from that one game, an abundance of Skill wouldn't be something I'd accuse him of. As for RWW, I don't see why similar players can't play together. Look at Shearer and Ferdinand. They were extremely similar and they were prolific together. I think the problem with Cisse and Ba wasn't that they were too similar, it was that Ba never looked to play with Cisse and we didn't have the team around them to help out.

Tooj 17 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I've saw him play quite a few times. I've been watching a lot of Ligue 1 this season and Saint Etienne are the team I've kind of adopted as my French team if you like. Man Utd are after their young beast of a centre half Kurt Zouma as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1245 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Fair enough, I know I can't really judge him on just one game. I would assume that if we'd been scouting him he must have looked better than he did that night anyway! Mind you, he did still get into scoring opportunities when he managed to stay onside.

Tooj 17 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21195116 Wilfried Zaha says he is delighted at his summer move to Manchester United but insists his "focus" remains on winning promotion with Crystal Palace.The 20-year-old winger has agreed a five-and-a-half year deal but will be loaned back to Palace until the summer. Zaha said: "I am delighted to be joining Manchester United. However, my focus for the next five months will be solely at Crystal Palace." United will pay £10m up front, with an extra £5m in additional fees. The two clubs confirmed they had reached an agreement on Friday morning, with Palace also announcing they expect the move to be finalised next week. The skilful wide-man has already agreed personal terms with the Premier League leaders and will now undergo a medical in Manchester. "We like to sign players with potential," manager Sir Alex Ferguson said. "We develop players and that's been proven many times. Hopefully the boy enjoys it here." Zaha joined Palace as a 12-year-old, and could be in line to win his second England cap against Brazil in February. He has excelled since making his debut for the Selhurst Park outfit in March 2010, scoring 15 goals in 124 appearances and being named the Football League Young Player of the Year last season. "I have been at Palace for more than 10 years, I will always love the club and I want to help get them back to the Premier League, particularly for the fans who have always been so good to me," Zaha added. Palace are currently fourth in the Championship table, two points behind Leicester who fill the last automatic promotion place. Co-chairman Steve Parish had always insisted Zaha would not leave the club on a permanent basis in January and he expressed his delight with the terms that will see the attacker continue to play a pivotal role in their bid to reach the top flight. He said: "I feel this is a great deal for the club and the player. It was essential to Wilf and ourselves that he stayed at Palace for the remainder of this season to help the club with its main aim of promotion to the Premier League."

acrossthepond 877 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 He was linked to us and Liverpool last summer iirc. He was from what, Heerenveen, or maybe Utrecht? Went to Portugal instead. Can't say I've ever seen him play but this isn't the first time we've heard the name (it's a pretty memorable name, too.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1245 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Didn't he make a name for himself by scoring five in european game? Was it against Celtic? I saw him play a couple of times for Sporting last season in the wafa cup and he looked a good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1245 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 See above re Aubameyang. I think he's one of the top scorers over there this season. I believe I've read the others (Thauvin not included) are young defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
