Newcastle to bid for ex-Arsenal star; would he move to the north-east?

Kevin Keegan definitely has a thing for players with more than a bit of attacking panache, so a player like José Antonio Reyes is surely right up his street.
The good news is that the ex-Gooner should be available after his current side Atlético Madrid deemed him surplus to requirements. The bad news is that Reyes’ time with Arsenal was blighted by homesickness. Would a player once described by Guillem Balague as being too ingrained in the Spanish way of life succeed in the north-east of England?
Newcastle United’s austerity drive is making it harder for Kevin Keegan to augment his squad but they are thought to be pondering a bid for José Antonio Reyes, the former Arsenal forward now at Atlético Madrid, where he has fallen out of favour. (Guardian)
If Keegan could somehow get Reyes to bed in at St James’, and then coax out the form that he once had, the Spaniard could be a good signing, but those are two gargantuan “ifs”…

rayes has probs agreed a move to some other club then the press can come back here and say newcastle lost out on another player ,(aimar) comes to mind , well it keeps them in a job

newcastle fans must have accepted by now that they wont be signing any quality players. Jonas and guthrie look as though they are the height of newcastles ambition. While the big teams and average teams are getting stronger. The small teams like newcastle actually weaken themselves.
KK will be the first manager to get the sack.

Two points to bring up..
1st - This story has been done, by yourselves about 5 times no less
2nd - I have a hunch that the post by spyro was not actually by spyro, but a 13yr old spurs fan with an obsession with newcastle
Karl - Fenham Hustler - July 22nd, 2008 at 3:00 pm
Actually bonus 3rd point - How is adding a future england international and the provider of goals to Spanish premierships top goal scorer weakening your team? Whilst holding on to N’Zogbia, Milner, Owen, Martins, Taylor, Given + Harper and all the other class acts certain southern journalists would have you believe were already off to london.. Pray explain
spyro - July 22nd, 2008 at 3:16 pm
Karl none of them are class acts. If you think they are you know nowt about football.Future england international? Please tell me you dont mean guthrie. He is absolute shite. if you are pinning your hopes on him you really are in trouble!Newcastle are one of the poorest squads in the prem and i fully expect them to be involved in a relegation scrap.And guthrie rarely played for liverpool so didnt set up goals for torres, knob.
Are you one of those whinging pricks from the Ed Harrison blog that brown nose him at every opportunity. Do you enjoy tomtoon pretending to have seen all these wonderful players he claims? It is only worth going on that blog to see the spurs fans give you grief.
azza you probably coiuldnt afford a ticket to a game you pickey mongrel.

I think he was referring to Guiterrez, the goal provider for Guiza, La Liga (Spanish Premiership)’s top scorer last season.
You mong.

spyro is there nothing on the spurs page to read?you say guthrie could not be a england player in a few years , how do you know hes 21 still got loads of time to get better and better maybe thats why your not a scout or manager did shearer play for england when he was 21 no and for the spurs thing they always think they are better 3-1 then 1-4 same old 3 pt lane alwasy living in the arsenal shadow

spyro, you sir are ignorant and a douche

reyes is actually a girl. most lads from sevilla are. not that there’s anything wrong with that at all. it’s actually great.
jon - July 22nd, 2008 at 6:31 pm
GET CISSE IN!-he looks great and is available-we failed with aimar but cisse is there for the taking-get it on the blogs and websites so keegan sees it-have a look at him on u tube-milner in midfield with jonas up front and floating about the wings-martins,owen,vidooks and cisse attack attack attack!!!
Karl - Fenham Hustler - July 23rd, 2008 at 9:17 am
Yes i did mean guiterrez. I dont know who tomtoon is either but Ed harrison seems like quite a nice old man. He constantly writes about newcastle more accurately from the USA than most the dirty london press.
Why u calling yourself spyro now?
