Dave Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 At some point wor Alan's going to do something nobody can understand. There's no way it will all be as good as we're all hoping. So what will it be? I reckon bringing Ameobi on for Martins tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest geordienorway Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I think it would be playing Butt regularly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I would like to think Shearer knows Ameobi is horseshit. Starting Viduka, if he ever gets fit, upfront with Owen without Martins will be his error Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what will it be? I reckon bringing Ameobi on for Martins tomorrow. Out injured tomorrow, apparently. Really? Came through on my phone earlier via the Sky Sports web feed. Just spotted this too: Newcastle boss Alan Shearer hopes to have three key players available for his first game in charge. Steven Taylor (ankle), Sebastien Bassong (groin) and Damien Duff (hamstring) are all in contention but Shola Ameobi (ankle) is out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Starting Xisco. Not baffling but it'll raise a few eyebrows. The Oba sub is too predictable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 It will be Martins out of the team to be honest. Shearer has regularly slated him on the BBC for not attacking the box, and he doesn't offer enough linkup play either. A team with Martins in the starting eleven on a regular basis will never finish in the top ten, and Shearer will realise this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I personally can't stand Ameobi but suspect Shearer rates him. Wouldn't surprise me to see Owen and Xisco mind as Martins is too much of a loose cannon to be relied on and is a scorer of the occasional great goal rather than a goalscorer. HOWEVER, you may find Martins played wide to give a bit of pace down the flanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOWEVER, you may find Martins played wide to give a bit of pace down the flanks. Shearer isn't stupid, he has been in his box at St James' this season on many occassions and has seen the game as a spectator. He knows what has been happening on the pitch and I am sure he will use that knowledge to try and get the best results he can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team with Martins in the starting eleven on a regular basis will never finish in the top ten, and Shearer will realise this. Surely Shearer will talk to Martins about this and instruct him to attack more, plus offer more to his team-mates? Don't agree with the bottom paragraph either. In the right formation with the right players around him, he'd be brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardsleymagic Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 It will be Martins out of the team to be honest.

A team with Martins in the starting eleven on a regular basis will never finish in the top ten, and Shearer will realise this. That's a fair point actually (not sure about the never finishing in the top ten like), Shearer's made it clear that Owen is basically the first name on the team sheet, and there's always been questions over whether Owen and Martins work well together. Then again he might surprise me and pick them both in new look formation or something like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
