P-a-p-i-s-s Demba Cisse has undergone a medical at Newcastle with a fee set at about £10 million

Two Senegalese strikers both with a hint of Demba ;)
Problem is that Pardew clearly stated he had no intention of buying a striker but all of a sudden has went and don't the opposite. Got that awful feeling Demba Ba is on his way out.

Swear filter blocks his name

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew is closing in on a shock swoop for Freiburg striker Pa**** Demba Cisse.

Press Association Sport understands the Magpies have agreed an undisclosed fee for the Senegal international and that he is on Tyneside with a view to tying up the transfer.

Cisse, 26, would join international team-mate Demba Ba, who left for the African Nations Cup having scored 15 goals to date this season, on the Magpies' books.


Pardew revealed at the start of the January transfer window that the club were unlikely to recruit a striker this month after ending their interest in Sochaux's Modibo Maiga, but would instead concentrate on landing a central defender with Steven Taylor sidelined for the rest of the campaign by an Achilles injury.

Quote:

Cisse was rated at around £14million during the summer, but it is understood the fee is significantly less than that with the Magpies continuing to exploit the European market, a policy which has proved hugely productive in recent seasons

Senegalese and frenchmen, meet cold weather and pies.

I'm guessing its an incentive for Ba to stay as well as a backup plan incase he goes. Hope its pays off though, can't remember the last big bucks signing that was any good.

Either way I am liking the way the side looks, hasn't looked this good in a long time. With a new defender I feel we can realistically push for Europe.

Edit: Demba has now signed. Confirmed from source inside the club but strangely no news outlet has reported it yet.

Second Edit: BBC finally caught up :P

Liverpool have agreed a deal with Sporting Lisbon, close to £1m, to sign one of the most talented young players from the academy that has developed the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Figo and Nani.

João Carlos, 19, is moving to Anfield after coming to the attention of the Liverpool manager, Kenny Dalglish, during a scoring performance in the NextGen series of youth-team matches earlier this season.

The teenager has been talked about in Portugal as being similar to a young Deco but Sporting have financial issues and have decided to accept Liverpool's offer in keeping with their usual policy of nurturing young players and then selling them for profit.

Any room in this thread for a lower league supporter, not a Premier League fan at all.

I support my local team Stevenage, and also AFC Wimbledon as a friend of a relative has a son who plays for them.

From what I've seen on highlights show and the local paper he seems to be doing quite well. Can't afford to go and watch the team play, which is a shame as I would love to watch them.

Liverpool announce new £150m kit deal after Adidas row
Quote:

The five-time European champions will receive £150m over six years from Boston-based Warrior following the agreement, which sees Liverpool stand second only to Barcelona - who have a £26.3m deal with Nike - in the lucrative kit sponsorship market.
Quote:

Although Manchester United are expected to secure a world record £600m-plus kit deal before their current £23.5m agreement with Nike expires in 2015, Liverpool’s success in clinching such a lucrative deal with Warrior highlights the untapped commercial value of the Merseyside club, whose earnings from Adidas were just £12m-a-year
