I don't rate Downing, but the 'Boro fans * love him! He's got their POTY award for the last 3 years or something stupid. Best of a bad bunch maybe, but still....

Not a chance in getting any of them
Think there is a chance of you getting Carroll on loan and I'd personally give Smith a piggy back down to your place and pay you for the privilege if it meant I never had to see him in a Newcastle shirt again

I'd love Smith to come here & score the winner against Leeds, I think they'd all explode with rage
Few clubs looking at Carrol as I understand, read Ipswich were looking at him & were going to table a £1mill bid for him. We cant compete with that, not by a long shot.

Spurs will hardly pay anything for Defoe as Portsmouth still owe us for when we sold him!

I know it happens every transfer window but Alan Smith to Rangers has been banded about a bit. Would love that to happen
Also, if Barry Ferguson goes to Newcastle/ANYWHERE I would be a happy chappy Davis and Mendes in central midfield + a decent winger

Personally I'd say he was worth near that sum. But since it's barca they will have to offer over the odds to get him.

Toure, they had some spanish reporter on talksport this morning who said he is massively overated, and considering they only paued 7million euros ? for him it would make sense
the bloke also said he wouldnt be difficult to replace

I rate him really highly, I can't think of many others who are as good in his position. Masch, Essien

Thats what I thought
IMO if Given leaves we don't need to bring in a replacement
