Superior Acuña Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Haha, i said this in the car. Dunno like, he can do a decent job in the Championship, but we'd want rid straight away if we went up. Kevin Phillips? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 It'd feel weird but I suppose I'd have him back. He's got a vendetta against Sunderland now and all is forgiven really after he earned us a point at St James' this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Well don't expect anything soon, saw him in the airport today with what I'm assuming was his Dad, missus and child. He had enough bags to take him away for a long time, and they were too heavy. Silly bastard. Was repacking their unmentionables in public and all sorts.

LooneyToonArmy Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Beardsley wants Chopra to return Newcastle United legend Peter Beardsley says the Magpies would love to bring Michael Chopra back to Tyneside. Chopra, 25, faces his boyhood club on Sunday when the ex-Premier League giants travel to Cardiff. And ex-striker Beardsley, who coached Chopra at Newcastle's youth academy, believes the striker still dreams of a return to St James' Park. "I think that's still Michael's dream - to wear the number nine shirt for Newcastle," said the ex-England star. Chopra came through the trainee ranks at Newcastle, but struggled to emerge from the shadow of legendary striker Alan Shearer. He scored just one goal in 21 league appearances for the Magpies before being sold to Cardiff in 2006. But Beardsley believes Chopra, who was one of few players to cross the Tyne-Wear divide when he left Cardiff for Sunderland for £5m in 2007, before returning to south Wales, craves a second chance at his hometown club. "For me, it wasn't the right choice for us to sell him in the first place," Beardsley told the BBC's Sport Wales programme. "Michael should've stayed here and developed and then he would never have gone to Sunderland and he might be in our first team now. He is the type of player we could do with now. "Michael still lives here [Newcastle], he's still got family here. Obviously he's in Cardiff when he's playing football, but he comes up here whenever it's possible. He's still black and white. "As Newcastle Academy staff, we would love to have him back here." Beardsley rates Chopra as one of Newcastle's best academy products, the striker having been snapped up by the Magpies when he was only nine-years-old. I've worked with a lot of academy kids and, in terms of attitude and ability, Michael was the best Michael Chopra "I first got to know Michael as a 15-year-old who was on Newcastle's books and about to become apprentice," said Beardsley, who scored more than 100 league goals for the club in two spells at St James' Park. "I've worked with a lot of academy kids and, in terms of attitude and ability, Michael was the best. "I'd say 90 per cent of where Michael is today is down to himself. His attitude and enthusiasm. That's something you can't give people. I can't speak highly enough of him." Chopra has made a stunning start to the season after Cardiff paid £4m to make his loan move from Sunderland permanent in the summer. And Beardsley expects him to continue the form which has seen him net eight goals in the first seven games of the season. "No disrespect to Michael - and I've spoken to him about this before - he may not be a top Premier League player but he is a brilliant Championship player," Beardsley said. "It's no surprise to me that he's scoring goals and he'll be a threat to Newcastle on Sunday." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/c/cardiff_city/8249642.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Nice words from Beardsley. Seems like a nice enough chap, obviously hard-working... but just not good enough, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 A very effective championship striker but not really up to it in the premiership. Looking back, it baffles me btw that the likes of Ramage and Shola got their first-team chance whilst Chopra was pretty much always a reserve on the fringes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
