Nobody

Fuck sake. Why would we sell him? Why would he want to go to Fulham? Why would we sell him for THREE million?

Best post of the whole thread tbh. Some people on here want their heads checking. Not saying that Smith is a bad player (quite like him as it happens), its just that the £6m could be better used elsewhere. Zoggy would be a better replacement for Dyer, leaving £6m for a centre back or dare i say it a left back even. So good player, but not what we need Now that's a big sig!

Someone edit the threadtitle or something, as we know this is just a pile of shite

Why Buzzcocks, why?!

It's pretty obvious that it's related to Dyer, isn't it?

FYP. This story is shite btw

Tbh, if there's a fee agreed with City, what do you think our chances are, as we've probably not even spoken to him or even scouted him.

Newcastle + shit manager = Hoof it. Newcastle + good manager = pass out of defence. FYP. Don't blame one person, its not him doing the tactics. You're blaming the manager=One person

Fuck off Why would we want Smith?

Aye I'm hating that intervuer though, he's just putting words in the players mouths!

He was canny, IMO. Had it not been for Buffon, he'd have scored a cracker. Some nice flicks and headers too.

Also, well done Sam for taking Rozenhal and Geremi off at half time, not risking any injuries

He looked good. Played first half, didn't do anything special, but looked like a smart player and was good on the ball

Think so, aye. Fantastic finish today, and impressed me second half with his flick ons and headers won. Needed someone to run onto them though. Agree, he looks like he could be a very useful target-man/striker in a few years.

Is he left footed, by the way?

LB was the only position that was clearly weak today. Hunty is not up for it at all, and the way Zoggy played, he'd be wasted there.

He made two good saves, but there were plenty of players that should've gotten it ahead of him.

Agree in general, but even if we'd loan out Carrol, we still have good cover for forwards. Owen, Martins, Viduka, Ameobi and probably Luque should be enough. Would be a shame having Carrol just watching games for a year now, reckon he's got a bright future

Can't believe I am saying this, but 4-5-1 was a cracking formation today. Allowed us to have a decent passing-game which we've been missing for a long time. Zoggy was MOTM by a mile, lovely ball to Oba for the second goal and the way he took players on in the second was immense

Nice flick from Carrol, Zoggy to score on this free-kick

Don't think we are that knee-jerk tbh. Allardyce knows that we don't have any defenders

We're murdering them atm

Could've been a penalty there for Dyer. Lovely ball from Troisi

Fucking hell, N'Zogbia is playing some god-like football at the moment!

Zoggy's been ace in the second half
