Support Newcastle mate, you'd suit them.
Owch, bit harsh mate

it's been well documented that Naughton has been in touch with Villa and now that Spurs want a bit of him. so with those two sniffing about, and they would hardly struggle to match our bid, i'll bide my time for celebration.
If he went to Spurs, Hutton would do for me as a replacement - shocking season injury-wise last time around, but he's quality really, about time Moyes signed another Scot as well, been ages!....

Mustafi - (CB) 16yo(?) - Signed to youth from Hamburg.
Garbutt - (LB) 16yo - Signed to youth from Leeds.
Ok, so Naughton fell through, but for only a handful of games there were no guarantees about him being the finished article. So what has happened to this Rod Fanni fella from Rennes? As for Senderos, I am very unsure, Wenger does not often let quality go, and even rarer is said player allowed to leave and then turn up a success elsewhere. See: Reyes, Wright.
I'm very happy with the signing of Jo, he's a talent and has looked impressive during pre-season - especially in the last game.
Senderos will provide good cover but I'm not sure about the price - 6 million seems a bit expensive to me. I was hoping for 4 million or even less, maybe that's not realistic in this crazy market.
We need midfielders big time though, I won't be happy until we see atleast two signing before the window shuts. It's a must really, it's certainly a weak area for us, especially outwide.
