TRon Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Drogba out is the biggest plus, His power would have been a problem for a makeshift centre back pairing. I think Colo and Beye can handle whatever else they have got. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Aye, Anelka is definitely ninja'd. Actually, late fitness test for him according to a Chelsea website... bugger. Chelsea obviously panicking and rushing him back to cover for Drogba's absence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will go right to the wire with those two. “Damien Duff will train today, but Shola will be missing through injury. “Andy Carroll (ankle) has trained and there was no reaction. “Other than long-term injuries like Joey Barton, Mark Viduka and Nacho Gonzalez, we are doing OK. “There are a few injuries but I still think we’ve got enough.” http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2009/04/03/dowie-issues-rallying-call-to-newcastle-united-fans-72703-23304194/ IAIN Dowie has assured the Toon Army that Newcastle United will go for the jugular against Chelsea at St James’s Park. The former Northern Ireland international feels that the Magpies are still a match for the Blues after assessing the options ahead of Alan Shearer’s first game in charge. And Dowie believes that the Geordie Nation’s newly united support for Newcastle can tip the balance in the Magpies’ favour. For, after Shearer lifted his players with a rousing opening- day speech at the training ground, Dowie hopes that the Toon Army will also be reading from the same song sheet and not singing the blues tomorrow. He told the Chronicle: “I want the fans to bay for every decision, every throw-in and every corner. “I absolutely want all that. “If what they say is true about the Anfields and Old Traffords, it’s certainly true for St James’s Park. “When Alan walks out, there will be an atmosphere you’ll be able to cut a knife through. “We’ve got to use that and feed off it. We’ve got big players, and they have to feed off that atmosphere. “It’s about facing and embracing a huge psychological plus at the club – that you’ve got that amount of passionate fans who only really want you to work your socks off. “We’ve got two away games after this, and we’ve got to go there in a positive frame of mind. “We talked about being positive – it’s not a shut-up-shop type of regime. “It’s what the fans deserve, and because sometimes a point isn’t good enough. “That’s exactly the way we’re going to attack it.” Dowie also feels that Shearer’s “passion for the club” can help lift the gloom on Tyneside. The former Southampton striker, who has also managed Crystal Palace and QPR, is, like Shearer, far from daunted by the visit of Champions League-chasing Chelsea. And he revealed the new Toon boss will have his troops up for the battle tomorrow. He said: “It’s a great game. “They’ve got a fantastic manager with vast experience, and it couldn’t be more of a contrast to Alan. “But Alan’s never been shy of a challenge, and that does say something about him. “It would have been very easy for Alan, with the career he’s had, to have stayed out of it until it was a better opportunity. “I think he’s shown good courage to come in at this time and put his reputation on the line. “That’s what he’s about. “I’ve always felt he would be a manager, and a very good one. “This is a special draw for him, and he can’t resist that. “In my opinion, it’s one of the big six clubs, and should be challenging in the top half of the Premiership. “That’s a pipe dream for the future, but there’s no question this club is crying out for success. “Both Alan and I are very passionate people. I’m a passionate coach, and Alan knows that. “People will see that we care. “I’ve done a few first-day speeches as a manager, and Alan did his and coped very well. “We talked about it the night before, and what his impact would be, and he got the tone of it brilliantly.” :indi: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
