You mean Right Back? Left Back they've got Evra.

But you are right. They have other priorities at the minute. Maybes if Arsenal sell RVP they'll come in for Cisse. But with RVPs contract out next season. They'd have to pay more for Cisse then they'd get for RVP.

No, left back. Right back there's Rafael (who's a fantastic prospect if he can sort out his positioning and stay fit), Smalling and Jones.

Evra has been rubbish most of this season and is one reason why the league was lost. He wasn't particularly great last season either. A new left back is needed to provide much needed competition for Evra (who is no spring chicken) and, if Evra doesn't buck his ideas up, to act as a replacement.

I didn't know discussing players looks was classed a trolling

Giroud is a must buy.

I wouldn't mind being speared by him.

Serious now, and at the LMA awards today Llambias said he reckons Simpson and Guthrie are both off. Debuchy will replace Simpson no doubt and that Ligue 2 midfielder who we apparently signed with replace Guthrie.

I wonder how far we are going to get in the Europa league next year...

Depending on the signings we make in the summer i'm going to stick a fat £50 on it. It has been way too long since our last (Decent) trophy....

Newcastle have moved to strengthen their Academy squad with the signing of 16- year-old Slovakian central defender Lubomir Satka, who has signed a three year deal.

Satka is the current captain of Slovakia's U17 side and moves from Dubnica - our Intertoto Cup opponents back in 2005.

Another great young prospect secured.

Sounds good. Hopefully this will continue in line with what was said about restructuring the academy.

Yeah me too. Though i hope we start bringing some good English prospects through along with foreign ones.

English prospects tend to turn out to be ****e and over-valued.

Gamiero told he can leave PSG already? That's strange, given there was so much competition for him last season.

[scriggy]

We made £7 million more from the Premier League this year due to finishing 5th.

But if we get them cheap at 15/16. Play them. They have a few games... We can sell them for ridiculous money

I know Newcastle doesn't field that many English players in the starting eleven, but it still bothers me that no one from Newcastle made the Euros squad despite their best season in recent memory. Steven Taylor showed signs of progression and would have likely had a fantastic season and made the squad.

I dunno, just s'pose I'm disgruntled about players from big-name teams just going through the motions or, worse yet, having a lackluster season, and still being called up for international duty because of where they play. Same stuff year after year.

Your best players aren't English. Krul, Colo, Cabaye, Ben Arfa, Cisse, Ba.
