WTF are we going to do to replace Owen after he buggers off in January ????

The one quality striker we have ?

 

Nile Ranger

I'd like to see the lad given a run out, sure.

But is he over hyped before he kicks a ball in the first team ?

 

He's very underated imo.

I like the sound of that.

I hope it isn't misplaced faith.

 

Maybe we can start singing "....I wanna be a magpie Ranger...etc etc..."

it's just amazing to me to see us simply look a class side. not just outplaying stoke, but 100% outclassing them. if I didn't know I was watching newcastle, it would seem like i was watching a game between a big 4 type team against a bottom of the table type team. clicking on all cylinders right now.

 

I don't mean to imply we are that good. It's just showing flashes of that kind of quality, and can see the possibility of showing even more of it. Makes it all the more frustrating when we don't show this kind of quality.

 

don't get ahead of yourself,  it's not that good

martins working the channels very well today

 

and that pass from Geremi - can you imagine nicky butt doing that?

 

He's imperative in our team tbh. Must be a permanent fixture as far as i am concerned. He's slow and he's not particularly skillful, but he is delivery.

 

;D Class.

 

True like. No one in our squad can pick out Owen like Gezza can, and when Owen is goals, we need both of em in the side to compliment each other.

Shows what happens when Butt, Duff and Taylor aren't in the team :)

 

It's criminal!

 

The majority on here know we have better players on the bench but ut has taken injuries for them to be given a chance.

 

Let's just hope we continue in this vein and play so well that Kinnear cannot bring himself to reintroduce any of those clowns.

 

u know they will be back though! its feeeeeking annoying. Although kinnear is doing a good thing by sticking with the same team when winning

Geremi is delivery and Owen is goals. ;D

 

Class exchange that, especially since it's true

Barton in the team instead of Guthrie, and this would be a pretty strong mid table side.

 

Then install a good manager and it's the Top 6/7 side it actually is. :thup:

SHOULD be you mean

Enrique sounds like hes having a class match.

 

Finally looking like the player we were supposed to get from Villareal.

 

You know, the one who was supposed to be fast and good going forward?

 

This is all, of course, blatant knee-jerk based on 30 minutes of play.

the owen-martins partnership is working cos Owen is staying purely in the middle, both up top and dropping deep, while martins is switching to the flanks, staying high up the pitch, opening up space and creating havoc. we dont really need someone to hold the ball upfront cos our wingers have pushed stoke so far back and are offering so much support anyway.
