Eric Djemba-Djemba
Player Valuation: £60m
If we sign Wijnaldum I give up. He was turd for a relegated side last season.
Verdict - SWERVE

Thats not even a question...! Mata all day long.
However for the right price (it would have to be the right price), I wouldn't be averse to bringing him in to improve the squad. He has talent he probably just needs the right man to get the consistency right... same can be said of a lot of our current squad.
We've agreed a fee with Zenit but Witsel's holding out for Napoli. He's not interested in Everton.Out of interest @The Esk is Mata or Witsel meant to be closer?
My understanding of Witsel is that everything is agreed and it just needs formally announcing?
Whilst nothing is agreed with Mata, although he does want to join and Mourinho is willing to sell?
So hypothetically we could see Witsel announced tomorrow and Juan Mata over the weekend?
If we sign Wijnaldum I give up. He was turd for a relegated side last season.
Verdict - SWERVE
Two very different types of players, though.
Mata is much more a playmaker in the Silva mould, which is what we need vitally and have for some time.
Wijnaldum is more about pace and power and being in the right place at the right time.
If we sign Wijnaldum I give up. He was turd for a relegated side last season.
Verdict - SWERVE
He was awful wasn't he? Even Newcastle fans hate him.
Played well in about 4 games. And one of them was when he scored about 9 past Norwich.
Plus I reckon they'd want about £20m minimum.
He will cost a lot of money for a squad player - Let's get the first 11 sorted, then look to our quality youth players to provide that squad backup. Players like Kieran Dowell and Tom Davies. They are good enough and will cost us nothing.
These young lads are gonna be boss for us this year
Watched the truegeordie bloke on his weekly vids on youtube mate as hes fairly amusing and he bloody slaughtered this lad and sissoko for quitting half way through the season
No completely agree we have some quality youth coming through, however i do think we will see Koeman pack the squad out. Rightly or wrongly.
How much is he going for?
Looking at the squad, i think there is a need for someone like him in the squad. Lots of crap to be cut from it to be honest.
I would playing for McClarenhahaha
Ashley bought him for £14.5million and will be looking to make a profit on him - massive swerve from me
