Behrami and Parker for sure. Don't know if we could get Obinna for loan. I think Inter intend to sell him if they can. I'd take him in a flash, though. I'd take Cole, Piquionne, and Noble as well. Barrera is interesting. I'd like Hitzelsperger of Stuttgart form at NUFC for sure, but I don't think he had a good time with Lazio and his latest injury seems serious. Overall, I think they have a better team than us in every facet except defense and goalkeeper. Club is just in a mess, though.

I never wanted to see Perch in a Newcastle shirt in the first place. Everton found Cahill and Lescott, but generally buying 25 year olds from the Championship tot play in the Premiership is not good practice. Any chance we could use Perch as a reserve DM. Utilise his versatility at least.

This is especially true now that we have a genuine DM that can assist back there. I don't know if Tiote really has the tactical feel or mentality to sit, but it would be useful to the team. If you look at the most successful teams in the world, the defenders have freedom to surge forward to vary the attack because the intelligent DM will pull back and cover their position. This would be a nice adjustment because our attack is really too blunt and obvious most of time, especially when it builds up slowly.

Some rough looking girls in there, man.

He hasn't been that bad, man. He's trying hard, and the goals will come. I don't love him, but he is more a thoroughbred than a donkey. Remy is already eclipsing HBA, though.

They had 56 shots on goal against PAOK. They definitely did not.

What about Gignac? Gignac played well tonight, but he just looks so limited. He's dangerous, powerful, and a good finisher (despite his lack of goal with us thus far), but he's incredibly one footed to the point that he'll walk into defenders just to get it onto his right. Such a predictable player and not too creative. I think he'll get better, though. OM is the club he supported as a boy and there is a lot of pressure on his shoulders. He works hard and goal will come, though the price tag is still questionable.

Feyenoord a a good team as well, very odd. Loic Remy looks worth the 15 million. :good:

That is his job in the 4-5-1, but it is limiting when playing 4-4-2.

As I said, they were out to expose Gaydamark and plea for sympathy. It is desperate, but it has worked for them. 'You're always going on about Nwankwo Kanu, you're never going to meet him.' I've actually met him several times.

Looks as though they'll through Obinna upfront and put the Mexican on.

When our strikers get the ball in space, you can guarantee that nothing dangerous will happen. It's depressing. So slow, and little creativity from them.

Ilunga is terrible. We should put a right winger on to expose this reality. West Ham's defence is awful.

If Shola is putting in more movement than someone, this player should be removed the pitch immediately.

Watching this match, I'm struggling to see how West Ham wouldn't provide a challenge to almost everyone in the division. Someone has to get relegated though, I suppose. I just hope it's not our boys.

We don't have a player available right now who is capable of resisting a decent player down the left.

None of the penalty claims were valid, but the freekick for the goal was just Aiyegbeni spinning and falling. I didn't even see contact.

Crouch's legs are crazily long. Just missed kicking and upright Pienaar the head without even jumping. Funny, how the commentators on ESPN are scared to criticise Howard, knowing that the US makes up a good portion of their audience.

How many times does Crouch plan to jump on someone and beg for a penalty?

So, Rooney has surpassed Toure as the highest paid player in the Premiership? Honestly, the whole saga is disgraceful from both parties.

They brought him in from Rennes, ffs. It's not as though he was some established star from Spain or Italy. I genuinely have no idea why they gave him 80,000 pounds a week. He denies that figure and states he only earns one-third of that amount. They pay him 26,666.66 pounds per week?

John Utaka is disgracefully bad. I don't want him anywhere near this club or any team that I watch. Peter Utaka is the better player at this point in all seriousness.

He'd fit in perfectly at Everton, imo. Would be a decent target if Pienaar walks.

What happens to Kanu/the rest of their players? Are they released immediately? do they have some form of contract insurance so they collect the money they are owed?
