Not that old chestnut. Shearer? Given? Tevez? I could be here all week.

He's got games though. He's also earned his place - N'Zogbia: a) earned it and then got it taken off him for no reason, while worse/worse performing players kept theirs under no threat and b) was never given the chance to get it back.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/w/west_ham_utd/6194368.stm I reckon if they'd have got rid of him on the spot, they'd have stayed up. Wait a second...

By saying superstar, you're just creating a straw man to be knocked down. He's 20 years old ffs, and been treated like something Roeder scraped off his shoe. EDIT: I didn't read yours first midds. Great minds.

Yep. And he's not started one single game since his injury, nor played in his own position. Easier to call him shit and a moody Frog though.

The best thing Allardyce can do tomorrow, next week, whenever, is give Pearson his cards and N'Zogbia a clean slate.

Roeder and Pearson have done EVERYTHING not to pick the lad, it's basically been victimisation. Why, I've no idea, because this didn't start today, this started last summer when they signed the Irish waster, when there was zero talk of any attitude problem. N'Zogbia's out of order today, fair enough, but this has been coming, and brought on by a manager and his lackey's vendetta (remind anyone of anything?). You cannot justify picking anyone, never mind last season's shining star, behind Matty Pattison, it's an impossibility.

Re: Parky's thread in GC - if we sign Viduka, my best friend would definitely pick his girlfriend. In fact, he'd probably murder me in my sleep. His favourite ever player by about a million miles.

I'll say one thing for SSN, they have a superb mong-dar. Put 100 Newcastle fans in a room and straight away they'll find the one who can barely talk giving it "whey we want Keegan like ye knaa!".

I'm hopeful a new manager will get much more out of him. You notice his poor games more too because we've had a situation where he wins the game or we're fucked.

This has been Viduka's best season for a good while in fairness. Since getting back from his toe injury in particular, he's been unplayable.

Who cares?

Brilliant player. I'd take him in a second.

How does the ticketing system in Germany work - in other words how can they afford to charge next to nowt and still be a regular feature in European football, not just Schalke but the others don't charge much AFAIK. Can one of our German residents (I'm looking at you Parky and Ozzie) fill me in?

Interesting read that, ta.

Mental.

at no time did anyone think liverpool were anywhere near,even nufc under robson came closer They finished above Man Utd in 2002 tbf.

Think the only people who really mentioned Onyewu were the American members tbh.

in a way the point of the thread Right. So Shevchenko might have been absolute garbage for Milan then, because no-one is allowed to have an opinion unless... what? They have a season ticket at the San Siro? no,because we all could see milan often enough,we can see brca,real,ajax,psv, often enough.....outside of that type of thing we are struggling. How? Is Italian football on more often than Spanish football? I don't think so, especially bearing in mind that when Luque was there, Depor were a very regular Champions League side. I believe he scored against Milan in that tournament actually.

Luque was good in Spain though, by all accounts. Veron was good in Italy, Forlan is good in Spain, Cris, who Ameobi took the piss out of, has been fantastic in France. Andriy Shevchenko anyone? Fair enough if people are saying Luque's been good for NUFC, pick them up on it because he hasn't, but seeing as none of you have seen him in Spain either, why can you say he was shite any more than people who have seen him over there can say he was not?

But Boro would be good. Apart from Stewart Downing, useless twat.
