Wullie Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Seriously, it's tedious as f*** man. He's done OK when he's played, no more. People raving about a forward who hasn't scored or even looked like doing it is pretty daft. As I said a few months back, when he finally plays and doesn't do too badly the f***ing roof will come off. Absolutely embarrassing By all accounts against Blackpool he was our best play when he came on, he completely changed Carroll's play against Plymouth, was MOTM against Leicester and was decent again against Cardiff. He deserves the credit he's getting. Alternatively, he was poor in the first half against Leicester, good in the second, the change in formation was the difference yesterday & he played OK against Cardiff, and didn't do much at all against Blackpool (not his fault mind). All in all, he's done OK. He did have a last minute header cleared off the line at Blackpool tbf, not bad for seven minutes work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Power Ranger A Real Danger - Boss By Craig Hope CHRIS Hughton has praised teenage striker Nile Ranger for the second-half industry which helped pave the way for Newcastle United's 3-1 win over Plymouth Argyle on Saturday. Thrown into the fray with the score at 1-1 and just over half an hour left on the clock, Ranger was involved in both of the goals which ultimately sealed a sixth league win of the season for the Magpies. Ranger, a starter in three and substitute in five of United's matches so far this term, is fast improving with every outing, and boss Hughton told nufcTV: "Nile is a young player but he is certainly able to influence a game. "The question is: is he better influencing a game by starting or by coming on? "They are the things that we are learning and he's certainly getting better each game that he plays. "It's an exciting time for him but he needs to keep on improving game by game. "But I thought he did very well on Saturday and played a part in getting us the win." http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10278~1803017,00.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll get plenty of game-time, i'm positive of that. We've got players coming back now and Hughton's gonna have a nice dilemma. I'd be tempted to go with Lovenkrands and Harewood but then, having two big men up top has proved a flawless results return. As it should do in this shoddy league.

Guest firetotheworks Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I dont think Ive been this willing to keep a striker who hasnt scored in our team. Simply because he's so good at holding the ball up and making things happen up front, and obviously the fact that he's far from the finished article. I'd alternate between him and Harewood depending on the opposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Lovenkrands has shown nothing so far tbf. His only two starts have come playing wide right and wide left and he is not a winger. He has yet to play up front, which is his best position by miles. No wonder he's shown nothing.
