Perez signed, looks like Colback signed and rumours that Gomis of Lyon very very close to signing. 3 players and total transfer fees of £1.5m. Does that mean we can expect a couple of big signings? £15m signings? OR are we just looking at the out of contract market? Also, was that statement claiming we are NOT interested in bring a decent centre back in true? Williamson, Taylor and Collocini have got to be the worst group of ctre backs in the premier league at this moment. Why look at attacking players when Mr Pardew is a negative tactics manager, surely he should be looking at strengthening our back four?

There's pictures going around FB of Gomis getting out of a helicopter with ashley, but could be photo shopped lol

I think Siem De Jong could be a genuine target as he admitted we've contacted his agent, he's a very good false 9 who would go well in a strike partnership with a poacher/target man.

TBH faircomment, I wouldn't be surprised if we actually signed Darren Bent and Curtis Davies. As I said on the banter page I think Pardew will be more active over transfer targets, and we will be seeing more "good ol' fashioned" players or experience.

Ashley has the money to splash 50 or 60mil on transfers but he just won't because he's so tight fisted.

Agree with you faircomment willo collo and taylor not first choice centre halfs. Collo was but he gets turned too easily and is not so good in the air. Taylor just hasn't improver over the years and willo had a half decent season but he is not good enough maybe Caulker and Davies with mbwia might be better

Caulker looks like he's going to arsenal

Its the worse photo shop ever Jtoon meant as a joke as Gomis is in his full french strip. Saying that he is apparently very gain to sign.
