Everyone was moaning about the lack of height in our team, problem solved You say it in jest. Roeder is serious. blueeek.gif Not to fussed about sibierski, as long as Ameobi, Martins and Rossi get in the team before he does.

There's no gaurantees with any of them. I really am baffled how you can think we're better off now than last year. We've signed an admittedly good winger who we didn't need. We were already covered in that position with N'Zogbia and as you say O'Brien. Rossi's only here for 4 months and will then **** off regardless if he's any good or not. The way we operate in the transfer market we're likely to go the whole of January at least a striker down before we get a replacement. Sibierski is gash. I wouldn't swap him for anyone! You say that Shearer did little but hold the ball up. Maybe so, but who the hell is going to hold the ball up now? Out of the players we don't have Shearers holding up the ball skill is the one we will miss the most but we will have to do without. Our midfield has improved considerably since last year with the progress of the Zog, the return of milner and Duff signing. As for the defence, i really wish we had brought in a replacment for Boumsong but that said we are no worse off without him. Once people calm down, i hope they will look at our whole squad and realise we have a plethora of talent.

***Cracks open bottle of bubbly**** Why is it you miss out everything else i've said? I was argueing that we have a better squad than we had last year, i was using them in my arguement. Don't pretend like you are old enough to consume alcohol. Does your dad mind you using his computer this late. Hope you don't find his porn.

Oh and i forgot we now have a youth system with players such as Patterson, O'Brien and Huntington coming through.

Wey i don't blame you for not acting like a little girl like half of these lot. Listen i love my football, i also love coming on here and reading peoples views as well as giving my opinion. However, in the last couple of days i've seen some idiotic knee-jerk reactions by people. Siberski is a wank signing but our lives are not in danger so why don't people just grow up and stop swearing like immature little girls. Newcastle United have a group of players most clubs would die for. There are few positions that need carefull attention that has not been seen to but we have a FAR better squad than last year and i'm delighted at the job roeder has done. FALSE. Rewind a year we had Bowyer, Shearer, Chopra, Boumsong (not great but a body) in the squad. Plus a fit Owen. Bowyer: Outragously inconsistant. Shearer: Forgetting what a lengend he was, he offered us very little but the fact he could hold up a ball. Chopra: Not good enough Boumsong: Your correct he wasn't great therefore should not have been a body in the squad. Faye: You missed, he's shite. A fit Owen: like saying a fit dyer Now if your saying would i swap Bowyer, Shearer, Chopra, Boumsong, and and faye for Martins, Duff, Rossi (loan) Milner, Butt and Sibierski . I would have said thank you very much. With a similar squad we finished 7th dispite having a useless manager for half a year. I have no doubt we are capable of reaching that again, if not further.

Not if he's reading about Newcastle. He'll be saying "what the fuck have we bought that french toss pot for".

Transfers is just a very small part of Management. I hope for glenn sake he can pick up results with thegroup of players that we have. People please don't forget that we have a fantastic midfield and a decent set of strikers. It's the defence i'm worrying about.

Done that for another half hour and you will be where i'am at. Unlike some of these lot, i'm not going to go and throw me self off a bridge. We have a cracking group of player with a few areas of weakness. Sibierski was a needless signing but who knows what roeders planning.

Sibierski is shit. We all know that, know one needs to point it out. However, he's tall and shit. He's tall and shit and can head the ball. Ok im done. bluebiggrin.gif

Is another word for one's rear end! bluewink.gif

I agree. This is more the standard i expect Roeder to be after.

However, Chelsea know that at any second Cole could be theirs if they bid the money asked. I believe, they may get rid of Bridge to help fund the Cole situation. My point is that they could get rid of Bridge before Cole joins them, fingers crossed.

May i reiterate that when lamb said Viduka is staying, what he really meant was " we want more money". Remember Fred last year said that Milner was going no where and about six hours later he was a villa player on loan.

Only if Solano or Duff get injured. You'd have Nobby ahead of Dyer (hypothetically at full fitness)? Depends on how confident i was on Dyer getting injured again. I wouldn't want to completey disrupt the team by playing Dyer once every twenty matches. If both players are fit then Dyer is a bigger threat to defences.

Only if Solano or Duff get injured.

This time last year freddy shepperd said that James Milner is going nowhere, within a few hours he signed for Villa on loan and we got nobby back. The lesson to be learnt is that CHAIRMAN TALK SHITE FOR MORE MONEY! Lamb simply wants the toon to up their price, i suspect we will.

No mention of possible defenders, other Neill. This is disturbing. Alan Oliver didn't know about Rossi or Viduka yet by some miracal we seem to have got both. He knows fuck all man, we will have a defender in soon. My guess is that a name will crop up in the next couple of hours that hasn't already been mentioned by the media just like Viduka, Duff and Rossi.

Don't know why but that post amuzed me. bluebiggrin.gif Correct though. Seems to be able to find space from no where, by the way the Boro fans are gutted that they are losing their best striker. bluebiggrin.gif

Agree 100%. Just goes to show what most clowns on here know about football tbh Equally agree. Viduka will give us exactly what we need. I can't see us changing the way we play, so we sure as hell need someone who can hold the ball up and bring everyone else into play. Go on then, make it four. bluebiggrin.gif At this point last summer we were being linked with him and i was very dissapointed, yet last season i saw a great deal of good football by Viduka followed by a great world cup. Vidukas ability in holding up the ball is second to none, the only problem he had was that Boro failed to make use of this with Mendieta out injured for so long. With the Zog, Duff and Martins ready to get on the end of what Viduka holds up we will improve our scoring. He's also used to being rotated in the boro squad, so he probably have the right attitude should we decided to leave him on the bench. The only problem with Vidukas attitude is that sometime he gets a little lazy, however when critisism is thrown his direction he reacts in the correct way. If we were to sign Viduka for 3 or 4m, i for one would be delighted with our strike force going into the season.

Give them Milner on loan but make Milner extend his contract with us. Then we get Viduka and an even better Milner next term.

I'm watching SSN. Your mates a prick!

Liar

Personally, i think Vidukas a cracking player.

TBH, Viduka would make more sense than some of the names that have been mention over the last few months. He's Strong, has good feet, can head the ball, can hold up the play. Viduka is also used to the squad rotation system should Owen, Ameobi and Martins all be available at the same time. Makes sense for roeder to go for him but we are leaving it bloody late for new names to be mentioned.
