Newcastle United boss Alan Pardew has high hopes for the summer market.

Pardew is hoping to add considerable experience to his squad in the summer, and has still not ruled out a move home for Liverpool striker Andy Carroll.

He said: "We have some fantastic young players at this club and this year is going to serve them well, particularly those we bought in the January window.

"We have got a lot of young players with potential now and we need a little bit of guidance around them to help them and particularly Coloccini. His position will be quite critical really. If there is a situation where he is not here next year then we replace that.

"Like all clubs, we will be sitting down, discussing plans for next year. The plans will include pre-season, recruitment and mistakes made this year and that's it."
