Scottish Mag 3 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Shola Ameobi is to have a scan on a hip injury after limping out of the 2-2 draw with Middlesbrough on Monday. "It just came on gradually, I could feel it grinding during the first half," Ameobi told the club's website. "That was the problem I suffered with last season. When I had the operation I was told it could flare up again and that was eight months ago." Newcastle are already without a spate of players, including Michael Owen, who broke a bone in his foot on Saturday. Owen may be sidelined until April. Scott Parker (knee), Emre (hamstring), Kieron Dyer (hamstring), Steven Taylor (shoulder), Stephen Carr (hernia) and Craig Moore (hamstring) are also out injured, while Lee Bowyer is suspended for another two games. Amebi, 24, started on the left of midfield against Boro and was replaced by Charles N'Zogbia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46030 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 But will he be fit for the World Cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adios 717 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I thought his scan had showed nothing serious when I read that title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W 0 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I thought from the headline it would say "i'm fit as a fiddle and raring to play!" ................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smooth Operator 10 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I'm thinking now would be a good time for him to decide to play for Nigeria, he can bugger off for a few weeks to Egypt for the African Nations Cup and hopefully put himself in the shop window for some other mugs to pay him to "play" football!

Renton 22001 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I thought his scan had showed nothing serious when I read that title. 73505[/snapback] That's what I thought, but joking aside we really need him at the moment, as there's no-one else. He is still a better player than Chopra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7169 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 N'zogbia, did more in his first 6 minutes on the pitch than ameobi did in the first half. he runs at defenders, puts decent balls in, shoots on sight, everything ameobi doesnt do. And hes left footed, why the fuck does souness not play him every game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7169 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Ive always found it astonishing that 99percent of the world knows things about our players light years ahead of the managers that work with them day in day out. ie Ameobi will never make a footballer in this league, A right footed striker doesnt make a left winger, Bramble, after 5 years of being told to 'cut out the mistakes' never will, Boumsong isnt worth 8pounds etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
