Scottish Mag 3 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Newcastle United expect to have Charles N'Zogbia back in a black-and-white shirt by the time Middlesbrough come to St James' Park for the Tyne-Tees derby a week on Saturday. And Shola Ameobi is going so well in training after his hip operation that fears that the gangling striker would be out for the rest of the season may now not materialise. This is just the boost Glenn Roeder wanted as he prepares to take United into the last 16 of the UEFA Cup against Zulte-Waregem at St James' Park tomorrow night. But there was some more bad news on the injury front with United's ever-so-game defender Peter Ramage suffering a slight set-back with his hamstring injury. And while Craig Moore and Shay Given are both back on the training field, Emre's calf injury is showing no sign of clearing up. Roeder told me today: "The boys have been lively in training this week and I believe one of the reasons is that for the first time in a long while we have had plenty of senior players out there. "Charles N'Zogbia picked up what we can only describe as a nasty knee injury against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge just before Christmas which has needed a lot of rehabilitation work on it. "But Charles is now back with us and working with our rehab expert John Green, who is coming up again today from London. "And while Sunday's game at Wigan Athletic will come too early for him, we hope to have him in contention for Middlesbrough a week on Saturday. "Shola Ameobi won't be ready for then but, while we expected him to be out for the rest of the season, the goalposts have changed a bit. "He has worked so hard and has made so much progress that it is now possible he could play in our last couple of games." Neither United nor Michael Owen are putting any comeback date on their £17m man, but Roeder added: "He really is flying in training. "Stephen Carr will be back in training next week, and while Peter Ramage has had a bit of a set-back with his hamstring injury, it will only cost him another seven to 10 days."
