Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has admitted the club have been met with silence since offering Spaniard Jose Enrique a new deal and that the ball appears to be in his court. Enrique who appeared to have his heart set on a move to Liverpool denied having agreed terms with the club back in May despite Phil Thompson claiming the deal was done.

Pardew said of the 25 year old defender;

"At the moment it looks like he doesn’t want to deal with us.

We have been asked to make him an offer but there has been no progress since then. I still hope we can do something but at the moment we’re still waiting for Jose.

I don’t think there’s anything more I can really add on that situation at this stage."

Death by a thousand cuts. Been saying since mid-April that he's clearly leaving. Stop the hand wringing, get in a replacement and move him.

As said, he has been going since January. It has been obvious in his body language and to a point his performances. A real shame as most wouldn't have a go if he moved on to bigger/better things. This not saying anything is a kick in the teeth for the support he has had but this is modern football.

Daft thing is he will make himself look a tw.at if someone didnt come in for him. Yes, it's very unlikely that this would happen as good left sided players are a premium. If it did though and he suddenly had to sign the offer whatever sh.ite he spouted would sound so hollow.

Move him on and quickly or at least a replacement. Will he go onto better things though or join the masses of players who do very little after leaving.
