James Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 I don't know about others, but for me, since he has been at Leeds, Alan Smith has always looked like a player who would one day play for Newcastle. I dont know why, he just had the look. I thought the same about Duff and Butt, and look where they are now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 One thought, when the ball goes into the mixer for free kicks and corners we're going to be a nightmare to defend against. Stacks of power, aggression and finishing skills all packed into the box. Still a bit short on the actual taking set-piece department. Who can do the duty well enough when Geremi is out of the picture? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who can do the duty well enough when Geremi is out of the picture? Nobby. If we'd actually let the bugger take our corners last season, we'd have scored more goals. Milner's a decent set piece deliverer aswell. Madness that Emre was permanentaly elected that role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Not very sure/happy over the Smith for Dyer swap. First, If we're paying as much as we're getting, then don't think we are getting our money worth. The mass inflation of this summer's transfer market has meant that £6m is probably the going rate for such a player. And if Parker and Dyer are going for 'more than £6m', £6m more Smith is a pretty fair evaluation in today's market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I've said it before. I certainly recall posting about a dream I had back when Butt was getting lots of games for Manyoo that he scored the winning goal in the FA Cup for us versus Chelsea.

Skirge Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Had a good old long kip, got up with the hope there would be good news and see this, I am gutted this is utter s**** selling Dyer and buying Smith is totaly fkn stupid. Sell one injury prone problem player for an even worse injury prone problem player. I would rather we used the money to strengthen the defence than waste it on that arsehole.
