Norwich and Bournemouth weighing up January move for Noone

Wed Dec 02, 2015 7:33 pm

Premier League duo Norwich City and AFC Bournemouth are weighing up a January bid for Cardiff City winger Craig Noone, a source close to the player has informed Football

Both clubs achieved promotion from the Championship last season and will have the chance to bolster their squads in January, in an attempt for Premier League survival.

Noone, who has experience in the Premier League with Cardiff is a target for both clubs, with the wide man a player that could give something different to both squads.

AFC Bournemouth have been injury stricken this season particularly in wide areas with Max Gradel and Christian Atsu suffering long term injuries.

Eddie Howe has been restricted to fairly limited options at times, and undoubtedly needs to invest into the squad in January to help their hopes of remaining in the top-flight.

Noone, who is 28, would provide a different dimension for Bournemouth and could be a signing, that will propel Bournemouth away from the relegation zone.

FLW have been informed that Norwich are also interested, with themselves desperate to avoid the drop.

The Canaries did not splash the cash like Bournemouth did in the summer, so funds should be available for manager Alex Neil to utilise in January.

Noone could provide competition for places in wide areas with the club already possessing ability with the likes of Robbie Brady and Nathan Redmond in the squad.

It’s unsure what Cardiff’s stance is on selling the player however, the club will surely want to hold on to all their key players with the club sitting just two points off the play-off places after 18 games

They can have him,he has not performed for over 2 seasons now he dont add anything to team plays wrong side cant cross a ball unless he stops turns inside has no pace everything a winger needs.Easily marked out of game just show him the outside.Any offers over 1Mill should do then put younger player with pace in side kadeem/ kenedy/ameobi.

I hope Fabio is reading this as there was a time that nooney could do no wrong on this forum.

I have never been a fan of Nooney not because of him as a player, just we don't use him correctly. He is better playing on the "wrong" side cutting in but in a 443 a bit further up the pitch than as a 442 wide midfielder. His corssing from the correct side is not that accurate and he is a better runner than passer.

We need to move him on to get Harris and Kennedy game time.

If we played 443 we might score from open play

Noone was our best player Saturday he is the only one with pace without him we have nothing

Time to move him on, too inconsistent for too long. I like his work rate but not enough end product, let's bring kennedy in and then Harris might get some minutes too!

I can't believe there's any truth in this. Bizarre.

Over rated player,goes on mazy runs but usually forgets to take the ball with him,saw him at Plymouth a few times and he did the same,hasn't changed so no loss there.

You couldn't have attended, didn't beat his man once and had plenty of opportunities a common theme. Bad decision making, nice lad gives his all but simply not good enough :wave:

Absolute nonsense.
He worked hard and closed people down but offensively did nothing as usual.
Pace? He rarely goes past a player.

He was excellent v. Reading and showed what he can do. Always gives 100%. Keep him and sell Jones.

But how often has he shown this form? Once this season. He's been inconsistent since day 1, but in the earlier years had larger good spells and we were all expecting him to come good but unfortunately it's gone the other way.
