afar Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 just on google news. coloccini has turned down a move to newcastle saying 'whats the point of defending for the team when the strikers couldnt score in a brothel'... pity Damn I had high hopes for that one.

afar Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 a friendly ffs, we will have a completely different backline and strike force for the new season Backline of course, not confident about the forwards though, Owen will have done very well to get match fit in time, Martins apparently has an injury also so no gaurentee it wouldn't be Smith and Shola on Aug 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Smith playing up top in a 4-5-1 and he is drifting behind Butt I watch him play, and I make an angry face, but the only thing that comes out is laughter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko1892 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Looking at this team, we need more than Oba and Owen Spot on. End of last season I was expecting a lot of transfer activity and to really put together a team who could push for a decent season. Except we still have a small squad not much talent to be honest and still playing players we know are no good. Yeah fair enough you can argue that we have Martins Owen and Viduka out but you have to have a team big enough to accomofate injuries and suspensions and at the moment we simply do not!

Slugsy Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Looking at this team, we need more than Oba and Owen Yeah, we need Beye, Faye, Viduka and Barton at least. Would that be Barton who hasn't had a pre-season and is looking at a healthy ban and Mark "I can't play more than 2 games in a row" Viduka. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant really expect to have replacements for Owen Martins and Viduka Its unlucky that we have injuries to all three but the fact remains that after that we have nothing up front. I mean providing we play a 4-3-3 again next season what are we going to do if 2 of them get injured when we know there is nothing in the team or reserves to replace them!?
