Newcastle Fan

You've got to be joking, he was dreadful when he came on even if he did get a goal. He won us the freekick that got us the goal yesterday and tbf we looked a far better side when he came on.

Exactly what i wanted to say, he's very highly rated and i don't expect Rennes to sell him for anything less than 5m.

I still do..tbh he IS a good commanding defender, just needs someone to give him proper guidence and lets hope this someone is Allardyce. You want him to be captain ahead of the likes of Geremi, Cacapa, Beye, Barton and Butt? Yes..and i can't believe Beye is in that list..

That was pathetic.

Isn't in the squad again for PNE.

He was something special thats for sure, even though i hated his time i still admired him, class manager and hope he gets to stay in the EPL for his next job.

Can't believe the c*** actually quit Sevilla for Spuds

I still do..tbh he IS a good commanding defender, just needs someone to give him proper guidence and lets hope this someone is Allardyce.

*fingers crossed*

Enrique's long range passes are simply fucking brilliant.

holy crap Shola is on the bench.

Mark Viduka.

That Robinho show boat was class!!

We might get a clean sheet if he stops changing the defence every fucking game.

Saw him in the youth world cup a year ago, looked shit and got sent off, i hear he's highley rated in Castilla (Real Madrid B) but honetly i expect him to be just a resereves player if he's coming here.

idiot tbh.

Its pretty fantastic news if true, we need to get youngsters like him and that Le Havre guy so we can devolp them and use them in the future, hoping for more of that.

Good job, i am pretty happy that we are forward thinking and buying players for the future, Souness did so once with Krul, Bobby Robson did the same with N'Zogbia, we need Allardyce to be doing more of those transfers.

We need to get rid of the likes of Ameobi, Carr, Babayaro and Pattison, bring in a creative midfielder and sign one or two talented youngesters on the cheap.

He's a good keeper but he never seems to give confidence to the defenders infront of him, he's bad at orginazing the defence and usually its them who get the blame, what i noticed about Harper is that despite he's not as good as Given when its comes to goalkeeping but he knows how to organize the defence, and they seem to play with more confidence with him in goal.

Taylor and Cacapa.

They switched Arteta's side because Enrique was murdring him when he was playing down the right

I'd throw Harper in away games and Given in home games, despite the fact that Given today was awful, just awful.

Agree with the original poster, Beye was pretty poor today and Everton found no real trouble in getting past him, they kept attacking from his side and managed to get two goals doing so.

Enrique looked fucking class all day both in defence and going forward, Beye on the other hand wasn't that good, both Everton goals came from the right flank.
