Dave Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Baggio called it the day we signed him. He's fucking mystical i tell ye. Lots of people thought the same. I still think he's worth a go up front with Martins or Owen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think he's worth a go up front with Martins or Owen. Aye, i know i just disagreed with him that day. There is merit in seeing him up front but as a replacement for Dyer he is shite tbf.

Dave Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I think when Allardyce enthused about getting Dyer's replacement sharpish, many hoped it wasn't going to be Smith he was referring to. I did, anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Then you were right about him too. I had high hopes for him but he has been wank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I'd be lying if I said I was gutted about the signing (still going to be a useful squad player imo, but probably no more), but as the deal was being wrapped up I honestly thought in that interview Allardyce was talking about getting someone else in too.

Wullie Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Very very impressive today, both defensively and offensively. What a difference it made to have full backs who were both good on the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I thought he looked pretty speedy too, which is nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I thought he looked pretty speedy too, which is nice. As I said I thought he looked nervous to start with, when he beat two West Ham players in the first half and put a cross in (even though it was over hit) the crowd got behind him and he took confidence from that. Enrique looked decent too from the short time he was on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Magic Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 According to Big Sam: "Charles N'Zogbia looked comfortable wide left, and it gave Jose Enrique a little taste of the Premier League. Habib Beye also got a little taste - though he needed oxygen on the stretcher after making a long run! He had to stay on because Claudio Cacapa had a groin problem." http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10278~1118842,00.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon55544 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 For £2m i think we got a bargin. Beye - £2m Roz - £2.9m Faye - £2m Cacapa - Free That is some fantastic business on our behalf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Beye looks as if he could be the best RB the club has had since Irving Nattrass in the 70s - similar style and quality movement & awareness - will be a huge asset when he adjusts to the Prem. Notice how Butt improved considerably when linking up with him... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parky Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Baggio called it the day we signed him. He's fucking mystical i tell ye. Lots of people thought the same. I still think he's worth a go up front with Martins or Owen. On the contrary I thought he was very involved yesterday and cropped up in many areas of the park. The problem is SA and not AS...By no stretch of the imagination is he a right winger or right midfielder. He needs to play upfront or license to attack the box late as a forward midfielder. Off the bench he would be great when Viduka gets tired around the 70min as he does these days. When Jan comes and 5 odd players dissapear he wil come into his own. Still great player to have around and every team needs an Alan Smith type. Perhaps we overpaid for him a bit and £4m would have been closer to his real worth at the moment. I still think he is a player who will do something when you least expect it. His time will come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptoon Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Fantastic debut by Beye, looked top top quality. He made a big difference imo and managed to get forward quite a bit too, we've been crying out for someone of his quality for a while now i just pray that he doesn't get injured as he'll make a big difference to us this season.

Guest Ridzuan Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Yup I agree,and he,like many have said here,like going forward too,just like Carr.But the only difference is Beye is better doing both defending and attacking but he needs to work on his cross and Im sure he will be a better player.

toontownman Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 The only shining light to come from the darkness today. Some fantastic blocks and tackles. The more he plays the better he is going to get, going to be a huge player for us over the next couple of years imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
