PENKAAA

Beardo? Peter Beardsley. I thought that's who you meant but i thought you were referring to the sky sports interview he did today which had no mention, my bad

Beardo?

Barton may have a got a few assists from set pieces (how many by the way?) but would you consider him as a consistent set piece taker (in both creating goals and having a direct shot) say the way Robert used to? I would even say that quite a few of Barton's assists must have been with Carroll and that does not necessarily reflect the quality of the set piece, if you can get the ball into the six yard box, there's more than 50% chance that Carroll will bludgeon it in. Barton assisted 5 goals this season and created 41 goalscoring chances. Again your post is flawed, it is irrelevant if they were to Carroll.

Better than Ricardo Fuller

French football correspondent Phillipe Auclair talks about the Lille vice-captain Yohan Cabaye heading to Newcastle. Interesting to hear a French perspective of the player. http://www.talksport.co.uk/radio/hawksbee-and-jacobs/blog/2011-05-31/auclair-yohan-cabaye-could-be-ready-replacement-joey-barton Edit: Also talks about Raphael Varane

Capital letters? OMG!!!

Jeez, calm down. It was an obvious joke. It was a bad post by alpal78 though, Barton created more goalscoring chances and more assists from set pieces this season than any other premier league player. I understand what hawk is going on about

Hatem Ben Arfa.

Very average, his set-pieces were worse than I've seen in any Lille match this season. Hopefully he's trying to make himself look s****, because he doesn't want any other clubs to gazump us. I didn't watch the match, but I thought one of his strong points was supposed to be his set pieces. If they were atrocious, then that's not encouraging news at all coz since Robert, we've been dying for someone to do the set pieces! Did you just choose not to watch any games this year? That kid doesn't know what he's tlking about man, probably a wum

Never heard of him. Anyone know how good/bad he is?

He said that? Or just a hunch?

I love reading Sewelly's posts.

Ben Arfa is just returning earlier from holidays than the rest of the team to be fit for the start of the season

Oh yes, he is also good with freekicks. The thing i like with Cabaye is that he is a "sober" player (not the common meaning of sober, the other). Sory but my english is too bad... Calm with the ball?

@DannyJGraham Danny Graham Valencia favourites to sign Klose apparently. Wonder if they're still after Gameiro then? #NUFC Were getting both!

I would. Merked by Collocini when Spurs came to town

Linked with the Mackems recently

Great game from Gervinho

If Benin get an equaliser i think the commentator will explode
