It was like "how long till Santa arrives"?

First goal. I reckon if we got to the final and he scored he'd do the full pitch

He tries his hardest every game, no doubt, and even though it's left back he's very poor their because of his technical side but Roeder picks him to play their and he does his best so i can't really criticise tbh but in the same token we need strenghening in the left back area come Jan.

I would put Nobby right back and Taylor alongside Bramble with Ramage left back.

Ramage!! hahahaha jesus christ man.

Point gained.

He coaches Ice Hockey now

Don't know much about him but getting infront of players like Ayala would never be easy, Valencia have always had a strong defence.

Having a high coefficient has never won a competition, scoring goals and keeping clean sheets does that. Highly unlikely for Newcastle to win the Uefa Cup imho. And before anyone asks, likewise for Spurs. I do actually believe Spurs can win it, i've seen them a couple of times in europe and they've looked good and although they haven't had a good Premiership start they've still got quality to score goals with Defoe,Keane,Mido or Berbatov and won't leak goals anything like we do.

8m would be a great sell, Emre's a good player, i'm a fan but he doesn't do enough in the Prem for me, use the money to buy defenders! no doubt well spend 4m on Kevin Davies.

Silly example like he said everyone was awful, i think it's very sad Luque's in this position he should be playing the best football of his career off the back off a wc but he's turned into a big flop who's career looks to be going downhill and fast.

He wasn't my first choice by a long shot but i admit i was satisfied with the appointment, he seemed to understand the fact we needed strengthning in the defence and also attack but yet again a manager hasn't dealt with the problem and we're feeling the concequences. We're poor in attack and defence not a good mix.

Id Defoe Blackburn hands off for Lucas Neill.

the answer to your topic thread is.... Luque isn't that bad, Roeder is.

I'm worried after watching that... we need players fit and quick because with that team we'd go down.

nice shot from Parker.

2-1

Newcastle United: Steve Harper, Stephen Carr, Craig Moore, Titus Bramble, Celestine Babayaro, Nobby Solano, Scott Parker, Nicky Butt, Charles N'Zogbia, Giuseppe Rossi, Damien Duff Subs: Albert Luque, James Milner, Pavel Srnicek, Peter Ramage, Steven Taylor Duff upfront.... Luque might aswell live in Spain.

Ameobi and Sibierski struggling... maybe he'll get some sort of a game?

But they were quick to get shot of Fernando Morientes when they realised he wasn't up to the task. Can you imagine how pissed off you would be if you went into work and they said, oh we've brough someone else in to do your job he's not very good yet but you never know he might come good soon. Bollocks to that I'd be a tad pissed off knowing I was being kept out of the side by someone who was performing like Luque. Erm who exactly would he be keeping out? Shola!? Morientes was given every opportunity at Liverpool. He wasn't thrown into the reserves after only a handful of poor performances. When it appeared that he wasn't adapting they handled it so that another team could make use of him and get some money back on him. Sticking him in the reserves achieves NOTHING at all. On the pitch currently we are achieving NOTHING AT ALL. What have we got to lose by giving him an actual RUN of games? 20 points blueyes.gif

To be fair he is good in the air despite what people have said.

On the other hand, Lamb said Kenyon was busy with business putting 2 n 2 together it could be Cole and maybe still a small chance of getting Bridge.

Looks like Viduka's staying, they just asked what's the situation and they said he's definately staying.

It's true, aslong as Newcastle are winning without Luque there is no reason to say Roeder's wrong to not play him, why change a winning team?

Alberto 7 please.
