rjenkins Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I haven't kept track of Mo Diame's time at Hull, but when he was at Wigan I wanted us to sign him. If his release clause is only £4.5million then I think he's worth pursuing, but I thought he had all but signed for Newcastle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted August 3, 2016 Moderator Share Posted August 3, 2016 If we can get Diame I would be delighted. I was pretty miffed when I saw Newcastle going for him and still would be if they get him. But if we can hijack it that would be fan-fugu-tastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Diame would chime with what Alan Nixon said about us finding a Gana replacement but needing to hurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 much like i said with west hams 11th hour apparent interest in gana bullshit like this is just an agent leaking something to the press in order to give himself more power in the contract negotiation that story of us being interested probably just added a bit more money to the appearance fee in his newcastle contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a Gana replacement at all, very different players. Diame will give us more attacking threat, far more box to box and doesn't hit row Z with every shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grealish, Bacuna, Adama, Tishbola, and 2 incoming = 6 midfielders, not 3 Better still, try posting your own opinions instead of hovering around discecting other peoples in a childish, pedantic attempt to make yourself look oh so clever.

Supervillan78 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Can't see Diame happening, he's already having his medical at Newcastle according to Sky... http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11678/10519909/mohamed-diame-undergoes-medical-at-newcastle Hull's Mohamed Diame is undergoing the second part of his medical at Newcastle after failing to agree a new deal with the Tigers. Diame is poised to drop down a division to the Championship after Newcastle agreed to meet the £4.5m release clause in the Senegalese midfielder's contract.

useless Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Diame can still be seen as an 'enforcer' in a similar way to how Delph was, who Gueye was meant to be replacing in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garvey13 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Diame would be an awesome steal although it feels a little far fetched right now we can but hope So need a new right back as neither Bacuna or Hutton fill me with any joy Edited August 3, 2016 by Garvey13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic_bouma Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I've always been a huge fan of Diame. ive ranted on here every time he's gone to an inferior club wondering why we haven't signed him. Hes an absolute beast that would give us a real physical presence in the CM area and as well as the ability to get box to box. i very much doubt he will turn down Newcastle at such an advanced stage. However if we have called his agent and thrown a shitload of money his way then you never know. In McCormack and Diane we would have the best cf and cm in the league imo. so on that basis it ain't happening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted August 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Money talks, if we offered him more I have no doubt he will come. It's just whether Newcastle would match that. Can't see this one happening myself... Edited August 3, 2016 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I don't think HITC are the most reliable of sites. They've probably just seen Alan Nixon's tweets and are speculating on Diame based on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPAngel Posted August 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2016 So Xia said that if others play dirty why should we play nice?... Following this, we've likely snatched McCormack from Norwich's clutches and now are rumored to be in for Diame ahead of his move to Newcastle. Are we just going to nick everyone's transfer targets now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
