I've not given up on Fellaini just yet, If we can get Herrera in the Summer and a LB I'll be satisfied. Obviously I'd love if we bought enough World class players to fill everything but lets face it, it won't happen.

Rumors from Canal + that PSG are close to buying Cabaye for 26 mill. Hope he stays with the toon personally. If he does go26 million is paying way overs and I wouldn't be surprised if Ashley grabs the cash.

Montpellier HSC boss Rolland Courbis has advised Remy Cabella to snub a move to Newcastle United, whom he regards as "not a big club".
...
However, with no official confirmation from the Ligue 1 outfit yet over the proposed deal, Courbis urges the 23-year-old to hold out for a transfer to a larger club, claiming that he would not want to "spend a week" with the Magpies.

He told reporters following his side's 2-0 win over Sochaux: "They are not a big club and I hope another club tries to buy him. "As a player I would not even want to spend a week there."
************************************************
This could be interesting - war of words about to explode? I think he is just trying to coax Man Utd or any other bigger club to come in and drive up the price.

Would bite their hand off for 26m - Telegraph was putting a $21m figure which is more likely IMO.

I reckon Cashley will pocket the cash as well but if he reimbursed it into the squad, might finance the Cabella and Luuk De Jong deals.

Given Cabaye only cost us about $4.5m - we could make a tidy profit!

Would love him to stay though, great player. If we ever want to push on and try and join the elite (top 7 clubs) we need to keep our best players and strengthen the squad. Sadly, Ashley's ambition probably doesn't extend much further than a top 10 finish and eating a lavish dinner every night :(

The news on Rhys Williams is good. More Aussies playing in England, whether it is Championship or Premier League the better, that where you learn to apply your craft, would benefit the national team immensely. Of course as long as you are getting constant first team football there.
