Ah howay man, he's a bigger crock than Woodgate. We don't want to be going down that route signing these type of players anymore. Especially for Hargraves he's hardly kicked a ball in 3 years and we could do better now. Woodgate would still offer us loads on the pitch but the fact he is never on it means theres just no point going there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Boy Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Any mention of that Porto coach, Boas supposedly going to Chelsea yet? If he does it would be likely he would be looking at the likes of Hulk and Falcao pushing Sturridge further down the pecking order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roke Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 What about Asmir Begovic? And De Guzman the 2nd? It's a long list; you're just getting started De Guzman and Junior Hoilett haven't suited up for another nation so I still have a small amount of hope that they'll suit up for the Men's National Team, though that's unlikely because the side is dreadful. Wouldn't mind either of them in a Newcastle shirt at this point in time and I recall we were rumoured to be in for De Guzman last summer when he was out of contract. I'm a little more understanding of Begovic given that his family had to leave Yugolavia when he was young. If he hadn't suited up for the Canadian youth sides and said he wanted to play for Canada at the senior level I wouldn't have begrudged him playing for Bosnia. If he had been played in the dead rubber World Cup Qualifier it would be moot, but that's how it goes for Canadian soccer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Hoillet and De Guzman were both in the crowd for the game vs the US apparently. Must rub up the bad way that they're happy to support the team but not commit and play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had been played in the dead rubber World Cup Qualifier it would be moot, but that's how it goes for Canadian soccer. Hope De Guzman see's sense, he is old news for Holland, still think its unlikely as he has too much pride to backtrack. Hoilett will play in time, can't see him opting for Jamaica, his father said as much last year. Hopefully they can bring him into the fold. The Canadian side at the Gold Cup were a complete embarrassment, really shows how far the U.S. have advanced since 2007 in comparison to Canada possibly even going backwards. Getting De Guzman Jnr and Hoilett to commit would be massive and set a trend that Hargreaves should have done nearly ten years ago. De Guzman senior wasn't up to much to be fair, MLS is about his standard these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahmed Khalil is the real deal as far as I can tell. Yoo Byung-Soo can't get into our national squad despite us not having produced a good goalscorer for the last decade. That should tell you all you need to know. Didn't even know any of the rest of those guys existed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His national teammate Niko Kranjčar says that, "on a training pitch, he does feints like Ronaldinho."[4] Colotastic Aye I was just thinking that. If he has that kind of style of play, maybe he'll be able to hold up reasonably well until his mid-30s, although I'd like to know why he got released. Still, no evidence he's on our radar, so until then it's all just conjecture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
