I thought viduka was fantasstic in the world cup a year ago, especially the game against brasil, pulled their defenders all over the place and generally ran em ragged!! Great bargain on a free...

He's only better than ameobi in my eyes and is one big pain in the arsse! No thanks...

He isn't that bad a tackler really, it would also be a great asset to our team to have a back line that had the confidence to passs the ball out of defence and to initiate attacks from the back...

Isn't dyer going to be the new full back for us next season? Ashley cole style perhaps? If he could learn to head a ball I don't think it would be too bad an idea...

A BIG PASSSSSSS FOR ME!

WE HAVEN'T HAD MUCH LUCK IN THE PAST WITH PORTUGUESE WONDER KIDS, HAVE WE???

Ozzie, are you Sid lowe in disguise?????

He was at the Real Madrid - Deportivo game on Saturday and all the spanish press have him pinned on taking the vacant roberto carlos spot next year... Bye Bye Gabriel!

I'd go for: -------------------Given-------- Young---Cambell---Ben Haim---Baines Milner----Butt------Emre----Beckham -------------Crouch---Viduka----

Beckham has been in excellent form over the last third of the season in spain and fully deserves his call up. Somebody please tell me who is better than him out there on the right? He is the only winger we have with an actual end product .i.e. gets ball into box (decently!). I wouldn't worry about what we do in the finals, we may not get to them if we don't change things...

Aye, he 's capable of doing it all right, but he needs to work on what he does after beating his man more than anything else.

It`s not as if Ashley rolled up to Sir Johns mansion two days ago with a suitcase full of money is it??? They will have been at this for a couple of weeks if anything and Shep was Ok then wasn't he, just a stroke of bad/good luck (select approp.) that he was on his deathbed when the news came through. Personally I think Fat fred would have done exactly the same or something far more murky if the roles were reversed...

It`s as if Milner is Pele all of a sudden... As far as I can remember is that he's got talent but trips over the ball, over runs the ball and puts shit crosses in more than the opposite of the aforementioned. Very good prospect and hopefully sam will polish this lads defects... P.S. I do like Milner but a bit of overload going on!

Gudjohnson would be a good signing. Very consistent player and does a lot off the ball for the team. He may not be van horse face in the goals scored department but he would certainly be better than shola/carrol up front with owen/martins...

If they sell Berbatov it just makes the gap bigger between them and where they should want to go...Premiership. Give the strongest force in English football your best player! makes sense?

spelling: perspective & reference

In referncfe to it being "Pocket Change", that is exactly what it is to Ashley. It is a mere 7% of the man's worth. It is actually less given that his interest are probably making him profit each year. For mere mortals like ourselves it is a huge amount but you have to realise the word "perpective" to grasp whether this amount spent is gut wrenching for a billionaire....

As mentioned by somebody above this bloke owns major sports brands and no doubt sees some excellent advertising opportunities should Newcastle do well. The fact that the buyout of newcastle u7nited amounts to about 7% of his personal wealth means it could be the worst investment of his life but he wouldn't give two funks about it, would he? Only 14% of the cash he has swilling around from his recent float of half of one of his companies!!!!!!!!!! P.S. Just in case Ashley is reading: I can give you a 100% return on investment over a 3 year period, much better than Nufc mate!!!

Really Happy. If it is only an investment, this investment will be far more worthy with european football and a team that can sell merchandising on the back of results... So, good luck Ashley! whatever your intentions are...

who cares about the champions league....mickey mouse innit!! wwwwhhhhooooopppeeee.

-------------shay-------------- solano--cambell--Ben Haim---Bridge Milner---Sidwell---Dyer----Duff ----------Anelka----Owen---- Subs: Martins, Butt, Taylor, Zoggy, Krul Yes, I am on class A drugs!!!

I would quite happily sell owen for 11 million and go for Anelka with the money, he would be a better pairing up front with Oba. Or vice versa, oba for 12 million and anelka and owen up front. Just call me Allardice!!

Like it!

I don't think he should stay. The players will have lost their respect for him and this would be very hard to win back, it must be horrible going to work each day knowing you have to work with a shyster who doesn't give a monkeys, suprised he's not been lamped yet...
