ricksen_da_best 2,034 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Add a one before the 7 and youve got his valuation, But we aint selling! NEWCASTLE are ready to test Rangers’ determination to hang on to Carlos Cuellar this summer by making a £7million bid for the defender. Cuellar, 26, has been a big hit in his debut season in the SPL since signing from Osasuna for £2.3m and was recently voted the league’s player of the year. The Spaniard signed a four-year contract and his impressive performances have alerted a host of Premier League clubs. Dennis Wise, Newcastle’s executive director of football, was in the crowd at the City of Manchester Stadium for last week’s UEFA Cup final against Zenit St Petersburg to watch Cuellar. Newcastle also fancy FC Basel’s 19-year-old striker Eren Derdiyok. He scored against England for Switzerland at Wembley when he came on as a second-half sub in February.

mohammed87 0 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 They'll be tempted to sell, very much so. But I think sense will prevail and realise you just dont sell ur best player of the season! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluemeanie6 3 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Hes been linked to Newcastle so many times recently, the same papers also said Carlos wouldn't move to Newcastle because he wanted to move to a club that wasn't at the bottom and that could win trophys, I agree, would be a complete step DOWN regardless of the extra cash.

Bakbear 3,586 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I was also of the opinion that anything over 10 million and Murray would sell... However it has recently occurred to me that he is our only viable option for center half... Weir is bound to retire this summer and if he doesn't he has lost the edge anyway... Dailly is also not likely to stick around much longer. That leaves who??? Kirk Broadfoot, Sasa Papac, and Andy Webster??? Webster should just goback to Wigan, I don't believe with his history of Injuries that he is ever going to cut it, and while I admire the effort of Papac and Broadfoot, neither should be first choice center Halves for Rangers With the need for a quality Right back and arguably a leftback as well, Selling Cueller would mean a whole new defence next year.... No i think we will keep him at least another half season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanger 0 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 i cant see him leaving, rangers are a better and a more successful team than Newcastle IMO simple as that, cant blame them for trying though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson 2 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 To be fair to Newcastle, if I was spending £10M on a defender, theres no-one I would rather go for than Carlos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlippinEck 3,702 Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I know our determination will run higher than £7Million when we got more than that for Hutton, and Cuellar has played an even more important part in our season because he played longer. Double it and I will start listening though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
