On our end however we seem to be settling on Darren Bent. Genius. The team with the so called quality of finishing in the top 6... I'd settle for safety right now...

Newcastle set to buy Jeroen Zoet from PSV Eindhoven to be keeper Krul's understudy
9 Jul 2013 22:30
Holland U21 international will presented to manager Alan Pardew as a done deal by Joe Kinnear and Mike Ashley
Newcastle are swooping for PSV Eindhoven keeper Jeroen Zoet in a deal set up by new supremo Joe Kinnear.
Holland Under-21 international Zoet, who has spent the last two seasons out on loan at PSV's Dutch rivals RKC Waalwijk, is heading for Tyneside after the clubs thrashed out a £2.5 million fee.
The 22-year-old will be understudy for fellow Dutchman Tim Krul, but his arrival may increase the chances of the Geordies' highly-rated number one being sold.
The transfer is the idea of Kinnear and owner Mike Ashley - manager Alan Pardew is being handed the shot-stopper as a done deal.
Zoet’s imminent capture will raise doubts about the future of Rob Eliot, who stood in for the injured Krul over the final weeks of last season.
