Shite. He's had 90 minutes, some people were moaning that he's not had enough time on the pitch to be judged etc. From today, he showed absolutely nothing other than that header at the death. Not enough in 90 minutes.
Really hope we manage to peddle this gimp before next season.
I never do.
Have a selection of small bets on tonight:
Carroll last goal - £2
Halftime draw, Fulltime Newcastle - £1
Bristol City to score first and to lose - £1
Bristol City 1-1 Newcastle - £1
Newcastle to win to nil - £1
Should (hopefully) see me in profit.
He could easily be challenging for England caps within a few years.
I realised that we were talking about the future but "easily"? IMO he has nowhere near the technical ability to be able to play for England at any point. Hope I'm wrong about the long-haired beaut however.
I don't see much technical ability in Emile Heskey. I was making the point that as the large target man who creates space for a Rooney-type, he will hopefully have a shout in a couple of years.
