Guest sicko2ndbest Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I have missed some of the younger players out but if you think they should be added i'll add! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I've ticked everyone who I feel can do a job in a Premier League squad. Doesn't mean first team. Basically I didn't tick Butt, Best, Smith, Hall and Raylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I've ticked everyone who I feel can do a job in a Premier League squad. Doesn't mean first team. Basically I didn't tick Butt, Best, Smith, Hall and Raylor. Same - though I included Smith as he might be able to do something off the bench... The other four are out the door for mine, though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 There's some debatable ones, but for me Simpson sticks out like a sore thumb as being not good enough, aside from the obvious ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Why havn't we played Smith up front for nearly 2 years? YES HE DOESN'T SCORE MANY. But that game against Arsenal was one of the only games i remember him up front all game and he was fantastic, but now he seems to have lost all confidence wand won't even venture outside the centre cricle at times Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
macca888 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Butt will retire and Best clearly isnt good enough but the rest, including Raylor, can do a job when called upon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Simpson, R Taylor, Butt, Nolan, Smith and Best would be on their way for me. The rest I'd keep, not necessarily as 1st teamers but as people to have available in the squad. We need to get some first choice players in next season to keep us up. I'd especially like to see 2 new strikers who can be a bit more prolific than what we've got, and a new creative central midfielder, unless Barton can extract his finger from his arse and fill that role (Debatable given the little we've seen of him so far).

tmonkey Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Why havn't we played Smith up front for nearly 2 years? YES HE DOESN'T SCORE MANY. But that game against Arsenal was one of the only games i remember him up front all game and he was fantastic, but now he seems to have lost all confidence wand won't even venture outside the centre cricle at times Because Arsenal are (or were at the time) the only team with centrebacks who could be bullied by someone going in hard and doing little else. A legless Shearer did the exact same to them, back when he was being back pocketed by decent centrebacks every week elsewhere in the Premiership. "Stick it up the Arse" worked for only one game a year, everyone else pretty much laughs that sort of tactic off with their big, strong, 6-foot centrebacks. Watching Smith trying to out muscle them was like watching a kids training session where the adult coach has the ball and you have a swarm of midgets all buzzing around him trying to get the ball and tripping over themselves in the process. He had a run of games up front under Big Sam iirc, and was utterly useless, especially alongside Owen (who was also useless prior to Keegan coming in). Might be why it's difficult to remember.

Guest Roger Kint Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Not just easier to bump the 'whos not good enough' thread off a few weeks ago? http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,68134.0.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Simpson would do as back up to S.Taylor for the RB slot for me. If we get someone like Perch in, I'd ship Simpson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I see it 2 ways. If its a case of just staying up Harper Krul Jose Colo Williamson Jose Guthrie Smith Barton Jonas Rout Carroll Loven Ameobi would do a job If we want a top 10 finish Harper Jose Colo Jonas Guthrie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 All bar R.Taylor, Butt, Best and Hall. I would also say Pancrate isn't good enough, but he isn't listed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 for starting - colo, williamson, taylor, enrique, jonas, routledge, barton, guthrie. might not all be good enough to start in the same side mind you, for instance, would barton-guthrie, or colo-williamson click as partnerships in a quicker more physical league? i'd also say that only Enrique has proven he can definitely make the step up, questions remains about all the others who will need a very good season to prove themselves. Colo was shit last time, it never went right for Jonas, Taylor can be dodgy, Barton has issues, Routledge has been poor for a few years, Guthrie looked out of his depth last year, Williamson has never played there before. I think they are all capable of succeeding, but the way things turn out one or two will end up failing. elsewhere, Harper isn't great, but he'll have to do for one year, Nolan can have a squad role but there's no way he should be an automatic starter in the first XI week in week out, Carroll and Loven can be back up strikers, kadar and simpson squad depth for defence. everyone else - smith, butt, raylor, shola, best, ranger, hall - no place in a premiership squad for you. Butt will be released, Hall's loan won't be renewed, Ranger will be loaned out, while Smith, Raylor ,Shola, Best should be sold. being generous raylor could be used as a utility player, as he can play 4 positions, but he's not barely good enough for the championship never mind the premiership.

Guest optimistic nit Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Harper, Krul, Colo, Taylor, Enrique, Barton, Guthrie, Jonas, Loven, Shola, Routladge all have the ability but whether they will perform is another thing. most the others could do a job apart from the obvious (Butt).

QBG Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Good enough for first team: Harper Krul Williamson S.Taylor Colo Jose Jonas Carroll Would at least be ok in first team: Routledge Guthrie Shola Lovenkrands Good enough to at least be back ups: Simpson (though he's struggled of late) Kadar (plenty of potential) R.Taylor Smith Nolan Barton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
