    Rumours Newcastle are interested in Joe Allen too

    Here's an idea. Newcastle buy him from Swansea for £4million, flip him on to us the following day for £15million and in return they get Carroll from us for £12million. Wonder would Newcastle go for that or would they try and bargain us down in the media instead.

    so effectively we would be paying £15 million for allen as well as offering newcastle an 8 million discount on our valuation of carroll on top of them making an immediate £11 million profit on allen (so they'd basically be getting carroll for 1 million while we paid 23 million for allen):confused:

    Damien, is that you?

    Why is Ian Ayre considered to be bad at negotiating transfers?

    Good point. Borini appears to be his only one so far and we got a fair price for him imo

    Reserves won 3-2 with Nacho bagging the third goal. Teixeira came on early in the second half and suppose to have looked very good.

    Honestly it's getting embarrassing now . Another cock-up in our transfer dealings.

    How is it another cock-up? Swansea want £15M and we offered £12M. We broke the agreement. So what? They are just using it to get an inflated price for Allen anyway.

    That's bit over the limit methinks. Why can't we just step up the efforts to keep Bellamy instead? :(

    In fairness, Bellamy was one of our better players last season. I'd love to keep him for one more year as an impact player. Especially as we've already lost Maxi and Kuyt.

    Though stepping up efforts to keep Bellamy should have nothing to do with efforts to sign Joe Allen, they're completely different players in different positions with essentially nothing in common (aside from being Welsh). No reason not to try to have both.

    I find it amazing how people get criticised here through misinformation.

    I don't understand the dislike for Ayre as the club has made improvements in all areas except the pitch during his tenure.
