James Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Three past NUFC managers were kind enough to offer their views on new and imminent signings: Mark Viduka Glenn Roeder: I like Mark, I tried to get him last season. However, Glenn Roeder does not panic and overspend on short-term buys, so I went for Sibierski instead. Graeme Souness: This is a man's game, and Viduka is a big man, but he has played for Celtic and thus can't be considered a proper player. It's a bad move. Sir Bobby Robson: Viduka was one of my signings, I brought him in to play alongside Jason Euell when Shearer and Bellamy were injured, only once I got him, he told me that his name was Jonathan and that he plays in defence. Joey Barton Graeme Souness: I was telling David Murray the other day that one player I would love to see at Rangers is Joey Barton. The lad is a proper little Premiership player, and would fight for the manager if asked, which I like to see in a proper player. Glenn Roeder: What happenned to Steve Sidwell? I don't see how they can all be friends in the dressing room. Also, what about the time he stubbed out a cigar in an academy player's eye? Do you think I could have got Joe Cole, Michael Carrick and Frank Lampard where they are now with that kind of figure around? Bobby Robson: I do not understand this transfer. Warren was certainly a good servant to the club, but he is old, and I let him go to Derby at the right time. David Rozehnal Glenn Roeder: I saw him play Wales for the Czech Republic, but wasn't sure, so I think Sam has moved too soon. I would have thought it would be best to scout him personally for a year, sending Lee Clark and Terry Mac when I couldn't make it. Geremi Sir Bobby Robson: Doesn't sound like a good move, I wouldn't want my players to be porn stars, I'd want them to be football players, as porn stars aren't good enough to play at this level. Glenn Roeder: Glenn Roeder doesn't use injuries as an excuse, but Geremi can play anywhere, which means that injuries wont be so much of a problem for Newcastle next season with Geremi around. Graeme Souness: A proper player, a proper winner at Chelsea. I certainly couldn't go home to my wife and son everyday having failed to sign proper players, and I'm sure Allardyce is no different. Alan Smith Graeme Souness: I can't see how a gay icon can be a proper player. Graeme Souness is a modern man about these things, but that signing just isn't proper. Bobby Robson: When I arrived, Alan was going through a bad patch, but I brought him to one side, and told him to forget about his general play and just play to score. His career was failing, and I saved it. Cacapa Graeme Souness: A Brazilian? All fancy flicks that get you nowhere. Proper British players are what's needed. I had the same problem at Benfica with Deco, so I bought Mark Pembridge. Glenn Roeder: This is not a player I've encountered. I've asked around some of my contacts, and they say that there is no point filling up a squad place for the sake of it and I agree as it was in my Pro License. Jose Enrique Sir Bobby Robson: One of the best players I've ever had the privelige to manage. A great player and a great man. Graeme Souness: Luis Enrique's cousin isn't he? My friend Michael Robinson says he's good, so worth a late punt even though I haven't seen him play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
