  1. At the prices being mentioned neither even though I know next to nothing about both of them. Their stats aren't that impressive and at 21/23 they should be close to their full potential. Even our reject Chopra looks a better prospect. 6 million? That's what Huntelaar cost @j@x a couple of months ago, or twice what Van Persie cost Arsenal! Another example of how massively overpriced British players are.. If we were to go British I would try for Ashton at a couple of million more; a good goalscorer and quite complimentary to Owen and Martins..
  2. Oh gee.. I'm afraid that's the worst possible opponent Feyenoord could have got from a hooliganism perspective..
  3. Good draw, although not a very attractive opponent.. Should see us through to last 16.

    Essien's goal

    Not sure about that tbh, was off his line and caught completely unawares! Wasn't like Taylor hit a floater than just went it, he hit it with some power, a complete snap shot and the amount it dipped was amazing! It's called gravity, and it's much easier to make use of than putting unbelievable swerve and pace on a ball with the outside of the right foot to beat one of the world's best goalkeepers from 30 yards out.. For me it's got to be Essien's goal, because no goalkeeper in the world would have stopped it, whereas in Taylor's case, although an excellent, intuitive effort, it should have never gone in if Howard had been paying attention.
  5. What is van Basten supposedly keeping him under wraps for. :confused: it was just a way of saying he's not playing him much. That Journal is full of rubbish. Kuyt did play the full 90 minutes against Argentina. Kuyt is going to play in the starting line-up against Portugal as well but now as the central striker and Ruud wil be on the bench.. Exactly mate.. Hopeless newspaper, just as the rest of 'em over here in the UK..
  6. Well, that was easy.. what was?? He? You said it was beyond you how somebody could say Kuyt is worth £10M, but you would "gladly accept the opinion of someone who has seen 10-20 games".. I have seen that many games of him and more and value him at at least £10M. Look, this is really simple, if Newcastle don't want him for the asking price, Feyenoord will happily hang on to him. Imagine reading a thread on a @rsenal forum where people question whether it would be worth investing let's say £2M for N'Zogbia, where we all know he's easily worth that much and we would actually prefer him to stay if we could, because that's what reading this sort of comment feels like to me (being a Feyenoord and Newcastle United supporter). Knowing other clubs have previously bid near the full asking price, what is Newcastle thinking when going in with a bid well below the asking price?!
