    Lille has agreed a €8M deal for Brest striker Nolan Roux to replace the likely departing Moussa Sow

    This guy really seems to think Sow is on the verge of leaving. Nolan Roux, we were rumoured to be looking at him during the summer if I'm not mistaken?

    Latest I have read is that it is BS, and he will not be moving till the summer.

    For those asking about Sow, I only know he turned down Fenerbahce and wants to play in the Premier League. No idea yet if he'll be arriving.

    @JenChang88Jen Chang
    As for Sow's qualities, think he's hard to read. Only ever been prolific in 1 season & was inconsistent finisher before that. No sure thing.
    @JenChang88Jen Chang Think Sow is a risky signing in that he's potentially boom or bust, but if fee's reasonably low then probably a decent gamble for a PL team



    I dunno but we have a knack of getting the best out of strikers.......:rolleyes:

    The only position I'd like to see filled this window is a goalscorer and possibly a cheap/loan backup for Lucas.

    All other signings can wait until the summer.

    Jan window adds on crazy money (as we know)

    I don't think we'd be forced to pay crazy money for anyone just because its the January window, I think we're perfectly capable of paying crazy money regardless of which window it is :pac:

    Hi folks

    A bit off topic:

    Put this on your Facebook and ask your UK-based friends to sign it. It won't take a minute.

    http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/19149

    Tell them to verify the email as well.

    Newcastle have signed Papiss Cisse from Freiburg for around £1om. Now, why aren't we signing him?? We need a striker and he's been quality for them for the past few seasons.

    Obviously it's because we've lined up Cavani.

    Why aren't we getting in there?? £10m?? That's great value!! What's Camolli doing?? Newcastle realise they're losing Ba for the ANC, probably realise they may lose him in the summer and they go straight out for another striker!!

    Is this Cisse fella any good?

    I didn't see people clamouring for us to sign him up prior to today? :confused:

    Are people just frustrated we haven't signed a striker yet, so now just want someone, anyone.

    Cisse is a risk, even at 10 million. And we really can't afford to take another risk on a striker.

    For 10 million, I'd rather we take Defoe.

    Al, I think people are more frustrated that Newcastle can go complete a deal for someone like this off the radar with little fuss which seems very good value that very few would have thought about buying. It is the kind of business many of us expected from Comolli.

    Huh?

    He's 3 years younger and has averaged better than a goal every 2 games for a pretty poor side, as well as being a better all round footballer.

    Probably be on less wages too.

    This whole secrecy regarding transfers is a myth, we're as transparent as any other club. Aside perhaps from Coates and maybe Bellamy to an extent, everyone else had been heavily linked for a good while prior to moving

    Well Newcastle seem to have a good record of doing this lately. If you listen to people who have watched him they all seem to be speaking highly of him. His goal scoring record in the Bundesliga is very good. At £7.5m it is relatively low risk.

    I hate the January transfer window. You just know we'll all have to watch the SSN transfer gimp on the final night counting down the minutes as we hope beyond hope we end up with some quality but have our spirits crushed ultimately.

    Who would be the main man behind the Tiote, Cabaye, Cisse deals for Newcastle?

    It's hardly Pardew that's scouting these players.
