Pardew" one more signing"

The way he said "certainly one more" seemed to me that the option was there for a 2nd further signing if needs be...although personally I'd rather us get another midfielder in and then use the loan market as/when required.

 

No. No more loans.

 

Let's have a bit of longer-term planning. Pardew knows who he wants, let him sign them.

Depends really, if we want to improve the team (i.e Lambert, Fonte etc.) then buying would be smashing. But if its for the squad then a loan will do no harm because long term we are looking at varying levels of quality.

There must be something in the fact that Gillet played as a sub today and hasn't signed for Donny yet. If he staid here he would be would be at best 5th choice CM and he is very clearly not fancied by AP. So is it unreasonable to assume that we will not release Gillet until we have got a deal made for Stock?

how about buying Miachael Doyle from under Leeds' nose or is that not possible?

 

i like him, but he really divides opinions up in leeds.

 

he is their Wotton (in terms of how he's seen by their fans, not as in type of player) - I've seen threads on him on their forums (before we were due to play them) ''we wont go up with doyle in the team'' bla bla. I think they also used a term ''you're a doyle-lovey'' :rolleyes:

 

but as a neutral from the outside i can appreciate that he's a good player...

Hayden Mullins from the Skates?

 

Played under Pardew at Reading and West Ham, I believe. Could be going cheap in the Fratton winter sale.

 

they can't stand him down there, but two divisions lower I'd imagine he would look **** hot. How many players drop from Prem to League 1 in one go though?

.and to make sure-he's cuptied should he move to Donnie, they are still in as well.

Strange way he keeps talking about the "Mellis replacement."

 

He's a 19 year old who only started 7 league games for us.

 

Very happy for us to sign a good midfielder, but funny how Pardew justifies the signing as if we have lost an essential player who we must replace!

Blimey, I cant take all this in...

 

A far cry from the January where we got rid of Skacel and Rasiak in the last few hours of the window....

 

If we get an attacking midfielder or a left winger in I'll be amazed at how well we've done this window. I can't see us going up this season but we're going to be smasing all sorts of records next season, if we don't walk the league questions will have to be asked of Pardew.

With injuries and suspensions he probably would be an essential player at the moment.

I think this is the justification he is giving to Cortese for signing another player - thus he is stating it in public to make sure Cortese and Liebherr get the message
