Does anyone feel that Domi and Solano are going to leave in the summer?

Milan ask about Dyer and NUFC tell them to hoy off. Yet clubs are strongly being linked to Domi and Solano and the best we get is a no comment from NUFC. And why is it that Domi only plays as a sub and gets heaps of interest and Pistone plays the bulk of the seaon and we can't give him away.

Also Dabizas has agian been linked with Italy, even after signing a new contract. However I won't be sad to see him go.

Yes, I do, and I will be really disappointed if they do go.

Solano is a maybe, but Robbo does have a way of getting players back onside. I don't see Domi going as he's settled nicely in Newcastle and enjoys it here. If we get to another final (win it even????) then I can't see anyone going that we don't want rid of.

Dabs has proved himself to me this season, and despite all the contract shananigans I hope he stays on.

I think Solano may go, he has said himself that it would be a lifetimes ambition for any Peruvian to play for Real Madrid. I don't think we would realy miss him as it would give Dyer, Gavilan or Domi a chance to get a regular place.you can't play em all and we have plenty of lightweight "flair" players.The same goes for Dabizas, we don't need him and the money raised from selling the two of them would get Newcastle a decent third striker.

On the Teamtwaddle site today, they reckon Shephard has assured Robson that he'll have some summer spending cash. However "only" ten million pounds.

That seems like a awful small amount with what Robson has said he wants to do. I know he has 12 players on the transfer list (possibly fewer as I think one or two have moved for free), but I don't realistically think Robson will get much for them. However we don't know when they will be sold, and can't count on their money until they are.

Marcellino is almost a defo to be sold. Probably as close to the price we paid fro him.

A best case scenerio would be that Robson ends up with around 18 million to spend. Then he could probably get three good players.

Otherwise, an asset player will be sold.

If I were Bob and I had 18mil I would buy three players.
1) another forward.
2) Two central midfields players - one creative the other hard, fast and as fit as a butcher's dog.
Only the very best will do.

I don't think fit and a butchers dog goes together. A fat, lazy butchers dog maybe.
