they can have him for cash plus lennon

smith looks twice the player up front than he does in midfield. much more like it from him. emre injected some creativity into central midfield, took his goal well and should start the next game alongside either butt or geremi. n'zogbia and enrique looked an encouraging prospect as a pair down our left flank. nice to see we've got options in central defence too with faye looking assured. i'd actually have taylor as our 4th choice centre half on this season's form. good performance after the city debacle and result going into the international break.

Strangely missing our best player out of that team not that suited to a 4-3-3 though is he? Neither are Viduka or Martins imo. i agree about viduka but i think martins can do a decent job out wide in a 4-3-3. it looks like sam will stick with 4-3-3 while owen is out. i think that lineup above could be the most effective use of the formation with the players at our disposal. Is Owen not due back before Duff? your guess is as good as mine. i don't think we can plan the way we play around owen though until he puts in more than two games in a row before breaking down injured again. Surely the same applies to Duff though. of course, but there are other players who can play wide left in a 4-3-3, n'zogbia and milner for example. mr contrary.

class on his day but he's definitely overrated by the english press because he's english. his technical ability is nowhere near the likes of kaka, messi or ronaldinho.

to be fair though craig, only owen has impressed in a toon shirt out of that lot - and he's only managed about 20 games for us in 2 years.

the whiskey on its own will help you pass out but the honey will help a sore throat and the lemon juice will give you a dose of vitamin c. I knew that needed a wink. You Irish btw? nah

chillis are more addicitive than crack.

not a cure but a hot toddy is good for getting to sleep when your bunged up. directions: Add two parts hot water to 1 part whiskey or bourbon. add a teaspoon of honey plus the juice of half a lemon. drink. make another one. drink. pass out under duvet in front of the telly

Aye, he probably fancies starting Barton and Enrique at some point too. Had that crossed your mind? not too sure what his thinking with enrique is tbh. he looked fit and pretty lively to me the other week and yet it seems sam would sooner play zog at left back instead of reverting to 4-3-3 and that dynamic central midfield threesome.

step forward shola

depends entirely on what you're using the bread for. i'd say baguettes and toasted ciabatta are best for luxury sandwiches. or stottie for an old school filling like egg mayo or cheese savoury wholmeal sliced for every day toast and marmite or cheap and chewy mothers pride white sliced for a fry up.

i'm getting married next year. the morning suit can fuck right off as can the top hat. i'm going for a bespoke suit. i've only ever had 'off the peg' suits and i'm not going to blow a shitload of cash on something i'll only wear once and that'll make me look a total goon.

so boring

i wonder how this 4-3-3 would get on -------------------------given beye-----rozehnal-----------cacapa---------enrique -----------------------geremi ----------barton----------------n'zogbia martins---------------viduka------------------duff

sounds like big sam might actually fancy playing him and the reason he hasn't is because of his lack of fitness....thank fuck for that. i was starting to worry that big sam fancied the idea of playing smith, geremi and butt in the centre of our midfield all season.

typical newcastle signing. a great player who loses form and is permanently crocked after joining us

not too many revelations then. i was expecting a bit more drama tbh
