http://www.journallive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2010/01/15/enrique-targets-50-game-season-61634-25605506/ JOSE Enrique intends to play in every Newcastle United game for the rest of the season as he puts an end to any doubts about his suitability for English football. Enrique was once thought to be too lightweight to handle the pace and power of football in this country as both Sam Allardyce – the manager who signed him – and Joe Kinnear questioned his conditioning. However, the 23-year-old – a £6.3m signing from Villareal in 2007 – has been brilliant this season and is one of the front-runners to become Newcastle’s player of the season, having proved more than capable of handling himself in the Championship. As the only specialist left-back in Chris Hughton’s squad, marathon man Enrique does not want to be given a rest as he looks to break the 50-game barrier. He said: “I want to play 50 games this season. “That is one of my ambitions, although I never thought I would be saying that when I came to England. When I first arrived I needed to be stronger and fitter – it was hard for me at first, but now I feel good. “It took me a bit of time to get used to the style of football, but I am very happy in England and very happy playing for Newcastle. I have been the only left-back in the squad all season and thankfully I have avoided injuries. I hope that continues, because I think to play 50 games in a season is a big achievement for any player. I have never played that many games before, but I think I have only missed one or two cup games this season. I still feel good, there are no problems for me.” Enrique has already made 25 appearances for the Magpies this season and, with 23 games left to play, he does not sign up to the view the FA Cup is a distraction for the team following the comprehensive 3-0 win over Plymouth Argyle on Wednesday night.

jesus, 400k a game, what an awful transfer.

i'm not convinced enough by bolton to stay up even with the games in hand, can easily see the bottom 3 not changing from now till the end of the year. so probably bolton, hull and portsmouth. if bolton manage to get out of the bottom 3 i reckon it'll be wolves.

chelsea arsenal man city man utd us WBA forest swansea

hes like the Nick Griffin of football. horrible hypocritical bloke.

He's from dundee. Lives on pies and dubious sex.

i wouldnt be too sure about that, unfortunatly

he shouldnt be dropped because of a couple of poor games, he should be dropped to give krul a chance and it makes sense to do this while hes not playing at his best.

"refunds will only be given on any tickets which cannot be used on any re-arranged postponed fixture and provided that it is received at the ticket sales centre not less than 24 hours prior to the revised kick-off time" so aye, you will be able to get a refund.

not good still, hopefully give Hughton the oppertunity to concentrate on the transfer window

fuck the snow! i'v just seen this 'There are no pubs as such near to the stadium'

Peter Storrie on ssn saying the players are getting paid today.

another pen. ronaldinio has had a much better 2nd half, still nowhere near his old standard. 5-1 hunterlar

he really has been especially poor so far tonight.

milan losing 1-0 to genoa. 1-1 now. ronaldinio with his 2nd pen of the match

I am so, so sorry for you

was also poor against boro iirc. which was pretty much covered up by the rest of the squad. with krul being such a talent, dont see why we cant put him in at home when we're at least meant to be under less pressure at the back

Click on 'Live Streaming' - it's in yellow at the top of the page. cheers

anyway to make the screen bigger on bet365 so i dont have to watch it on the tiny screen? i'm probably just being an idiot....

public holiday in italy today.

ole Soderberg just looks like lost, his expression on his face and everything .... quite like his top though. good tune, but seriously the lyrics if thats the corus god knows how bad the verses are.

I will admit I bought the Howay 5-0 match on video when it came out. i used to watch it quite often after a bad defeat untill i got rid of the vcr
