Cacapa actually looks a better midfielder than Butt. How tragic is that

He couldn't outperform Geremi, and that was enough of a reason for him to be moved on. Who are these more technical players he has outperformed anyway? Bollocks. Geremi can cross a ball, but apart from that he doesn't contribute nearly as much to the game as Milner used to do. Has Milner ever been as poor for us as Geremi was against Hull? When the team is struggling, Geremi doesn't contribute anything. Milner at least had an OK work rate, and much better pace (which is kind of ironic, when you think about it). Lets get down to basics here. As far as I am concerned, anyone who says Milner is crap doesn't have a clue about what constitutes an even average EPL footballer. Most base their opinions on one or two poor displays and completely ignore the good displays. Milner is 22 years of age and will mature into one of the best midfielders this country has ever produced period, no point arguing on this point because only time will tell, but the f*****g pillocks that think they know a quality football have, in their ignorance, influenced his decision to go. Lord have mercy ... You truly know nothing about football mate. You clearly have never played the game. Milner? Milner will be lucky if he's still in the premiership in 3 years. He will never play for England. He will never consistently start every game for Villa. You want to know what a promising young player looks like? Have a look at the likes of Ashley Young and Theo Walcott.

Sorry, just pure fantasy. Why not say that then? Thought it would be fairly obvious. My bad.

Sorry, just pure fantasy.

He really wouldn't. Milner is the kind of squad player you want when your team is fully healthy and full of good players. Then you could bring him in when you choose to and he would be surrounded by so many other good players that his crapness wouldn't adversely affect the team to a great degree. Now would be the absolute worst time to have James Milner, as we would be foeced to play him week in and week out. Forced to watch him continuously hit the first man with his corners and still have the arrogance/audacity to continue to take them, forced to watch him do his silly stepovers at the most inopportune times, forced to watch him fail to beat his man on the wing, forced to watch him try to beat his man, and fail, on the rare occassions he doesn't actually have to as he could have delivered the ball first time, forced to watch him miraculously have every shot he takes blocked, forced to watch him fail to pick out the simple pass when his teammates are in space and instead blast it from 30 yards etc etc etc ...

Yeah, but that's what is kind of great about him. He's very aware of everything and constantly questions why certain things are done the way they are by the NBA. He's great.

Mark Cuban (Dallas Mavericks) I'll have him here over any other American owner atm He would be awesome.

A player good as Milner will never play for this f***ing club. Geremi, Jonas and N'Zogbia all play for this club and are all infinitely better than Milner. Duh ...

Mark Cuban (Dallas Mavericks)

Think the word your looking for is consumption. "A Nigerian consumption ... " is what you're after.

He couldn't outperform Geremi, and that was enough of a reason for him to be moved on. Who are these more technical players he has outperformed anyway?

Well he was an adequate squad player I would much rather do without. The issue was our failure to get in a replacement. There is no point whining about still having him here, as he would in no way be a half decent fill in for Jonas. .

What a daft thing to say. What we need is a decent player for cover, not a player with no pace, no crossing ability and no brain. If Kevin and the board weren't squabbling over their Shweinstigers and Skjelbreds then I'm sure this injury wouldn't be as much of a problem. That is the point. Milner was awful for us and indirectly cost us a lot of points by failing to capitalise when he was in decent positions. Seriously shut up about James Milner. He was rubbish.

Interesting ... I suspect theis was a recurring theme through the summer. Hence the state of our squad. Might also explain the sudden "collapse" of the Atouba move.

I believe Fashsanu works in the Nigerian media nowadays. So if there is talk of Nigerian media moguls beign involved I wouldn't be surprised if he has a hand in this too. It actually wouldn't be far fetched to see him installed as chairman, due to his prem experience.

You can guarantee our starting strike force will be Martins and Shola for the rest of the season too, as Shola will be given a brand new deal. If this deal goes through. Anything is possible. Nigerians are capable of anything.

One Nigerian buying the club would be somewhat scary but a lot easier to deal with. A bunch of Nigerian business men though? All with their differrent agedas etc. I'm very scared. The simple fact they are prepared to pay the £400 million is enough of a red flag. Have they even looked into what the club should actually cost? If it does happen, Ijust hope they have their stuff together and realise exactly what it is they are doing.

It's more depressing that apart from Robinho they haven't bought anybody we couldn't have got, and that we could have got Mark Hughes in January. Exactly.

Spurs groupies where art though now??? Tottenham are flat out shocking. Hated it how people kept going on about how we ought to be buying the players they were all summer. They are embarrassing. Just a shame they have the fortune to be playing us in our current state this Wednesday.

Do you think many decent mangers would have come and accepted Dennis Wise telling them which players they are getting? No different to last January then. Zico and Terim have shown interest.

The fact is there are players on the bench who should be on the field. Hughton cannot be blamed because he didn't apply for the manager job, but he has done a bad job of putting out the right teams. Edgar? When bassong is on the bench? Cacapa in midfield? Crazy stuff.

We will also have t5he joy of Tottenham turning us over at home despite thier shitness, and using us as a springboard to kick off their season. The humiliation ...

still blaming keegan this state of limbo will continue until the club has been sold, sadly. ashley needs to hurry the f*** up. I'm past the blame games. I just wonder why Keegan would leave at such an awkward time. If things were so bad he should have left ages ago. His timing has screwed us over very very very badly. I'm not even sure Ashley is in a hurry to sell the club tbh. I'm a bit worried about it, as he is only going to be looking out for his own interests. Getting the club relegated won't be in his best interests but what is to stop him waiting until at least January to get what he wants? We could be in this state for a long while yet, which is just so demoralising.

Our players are such losers. They have an excuse for performing badly and they are embracing it with both hands. It would be one thing if they were actually playing hard and losing, but they are blatantly not even putting in any kind of effort.

No matter what happened I find it so hard to accept that Keegan was happy to let this happen. He knew the players would crumble like this surely. How could someone who loves the club allow this? Surely he could have waited till the summer having started the season? Or he should have just left earlier in the summer. This is heartbraking. So so disgusted and dissapointed. Think I'll just ignore everything Newcastle till we have a new owner and/or manager. We are in big trouble here guys.
