People are hellbent on trying to make mountains out of molehills over Owen’s injury. In my opinion he shouldnt be in the England Squad this week, he should be concentrating on getting fully fit, however i understand that England will probably require his services over the forthcoming week.

The Sun, if anybody saw it today have constantly been saying that there is a rift between Big Sam and Owen. All Big Sam wants is what is best for the Toon, and i am sure Owen does aswell.

I just hope that they can lay this story to bed over the next few days, because quite simply, its doing nobody any good whatsoever.

Rumours are circulating that West Ham United are looking to take Newcastle United’s Kieron Dyer to Upton Park, a move which would see Dyer link up with former United colleagues Scott Parker, Craig Bellamy and Lee Bowyer. However, it is believed that West Ham will only be willing to pay a fee of around two million for a player who’s had more than his fair share of injury problems during his eight year spell on tyneside. The deal could prove to be a great bit of business for Hammers boss Alan Curbishley should Dyer stay injury free and recapture his best form. Though whether the offer will be acceptable to United remains to be seen.

Something must be in the water or the air, as Newcastle is making another huge move, in an effort to bolster their roster. Sam Allardyce is proving himself to be a very proactive manager, as he is making numerous moves towards signing big name players. It is this kind of action that Newcastle has been missing and will definitely prove to be an asset when the Premiership starts up again.

Thus, it is with great excitement to point out that the Mags are now pursuing PSG defender David Rozehnal. The 26 year old Czech defender has stated that he is very excited about Newcastle’s push for him and would love to join the team. According to BBC Sport,

Czech Republic defender David Rozehnal is keen for a move to Newcastle United, according to his representatives.

The 26-year-old’s club Paris St Germain have yet to hold direct talks with the Magpies, having already rejected a £2.7m bid from Borussia Dortmund.

“David would love to play for Newcastle,” Sport Invest spokesman Eliot Vantil told BBC Sport.

Though not a done deal, it would seem that the Mags are very close to signing him and Allardyce has made a strong push to ensure that Rozehnal will be playing for him next season. Fansfc were quoted as stating,

Magpies boss Sam Allardyce is eager to land the 26-year-old as he looks to rebuild his back four, and has offered the French club a fee of £3.3million.

Rozehnal has been a key member of the PSG back four for the past two years, and Allardyce believes he can add some much needed stability to his back line at St James’ Park.

So what do you guys think about the various deals Allardyce has making. Are we going in the right direction? As with the other posts, more information to come.
