7ook off they turned it down wanted more paper talk is that the gyan deal worth 9million that inc the loan fee do you think he,s going to give bruce 13,14,15 million then a 10 million contract....

We paid 13m for Gyan we could have more the same or more WHEN we sell him and I believe we have 5m for this season from UAE... Not a bad bit of buisness in the end...

We'll be playing Juve
You'll be playing whitley bay.
lol
Really though good start for both clubs considering the sides sunderland have played this season, and we (Newcastle) have for once managed successfully to ride our luck, which is how teams are supposed to play, arsenal and manu did it for years.

Its a bit doom and gloom at the minute, I thought an exercise like the ideas listed below might give us a bit of debate and banter.
Who in our squad is being overlooked at the moment and should be playing as a 1st choice?
List a team with our current squad giving their positions.
What team would we pick?
Its all well and good us having a go at SB ( yes I know he bought the players, this is not what this thread is about)
lets have a constructive debate and see what we could come up with?
what would be our team & formation.
In fact lets have more than one one formation for example a one up front, a packed midfield and 4-4-2.

Like the first one but bardsley now has a 4 match ban I wouldn't know who to play left back other than a young lad because Richardson always has me on edge at left back

OK here's a team for discussion:
Formation: 4-3-1-2
Strikers: Ji Dong ; Bendtner
Attacking mid: Sessegnon
Midfield left to right: Cook ; Gardner ; Larsson
Defence: L to R: Bardsley; Brown; O'Shea; Laing
Keeper: Westwood
Subs; Wickham; Vaughan; Turner; Richardson; Colback; McClean; Mignolet

Every combination you have come up with is relegation material. Lets face it, Bruce has wasted millions on crap and the daft irishman has backed him. BOTH will be gone soon and if relegation happens, the club will be right in the S**t after giving big wages to hasbeen old men like the Man U reserves!!!!!
Agree1
Disagree3
Every team you sad deluded geordies put out each week is relegation material, 5games straight you should of been beat, arsenal, sunderland, Scunthorpe, fulham, QPR just been very lucky. you talking a load of rubbish you fool, will be good when these so called crap players prove you wrong like Wickham and Dong-won and you lot have to rely on Ameobi and best. SGB. old men ha sorry Sol Campbell, Shefki Kuqi. and we not stupid enough like you to be paying players like michael owen for example £130,000 a week, we have a wage cap of £50,000 so you talking a load of sh*t again there. You lot are still paying off the wages you gave to your players in the championship thats where your 35m went. SGB

Is there anyone firing in the reserves at the moment, who given the chance, could shine for us?

What happened with Ryan Noble?
Agree0

Why isn't anyone shouting for Ji Dong Won. He should start every game. The first time I saw him in the flesh was at Anfield and he looked very assured and comfortable on the ball. He's a full international who scored two for his country last week and is the only striker to score for us this season. He made his goal against Chelsea look easy but he still had the keeper and two defenders to beat to put it away (doubt if Gyan would have scored with it).
He must start up front with Bendtner against Stoke, surely!

Yes, Jordan Cook

We should buy hesky in jan would be better than our current strikers.

Heskey would be a waste of space! Ji and Bendtner are far more superior

O Roary, the kid from Arsenal. Has scored for the reserves can use both feet and could come off the bench for us... another string?

Can anyone remember when we sold Big K.Jones? Im sure one of the reasons given by SB was " i want to move the club in a new dcirection, away from a big man up front if you like".... not exactly word for word but word to that effect.
I just find it strange when 12 months on the three strikers we have are all 6ft plus.
Just another example that SB is makinmg it up as he goes along.
All the excuses of greedy players, scheming agents and what ever else rolls of his tongue are rubbish, its the same for any team now.
Honestly the pre season and first four matches remind me of the last days of peter reid.
Apart from sesengon can anyone name me a creative player we have? i only mention this because this is his third season and im sure it was something he was ment to address.Bruce please go.FTM

Modern day strikers are typically 6ft plus so I would consider the idea of bruce transforming us into a long ball team, although I agree he should be off. As for the creativity part sess and larsson are the only ones ! If Bruce didn't insist on playing colback and cattermole every week and gave the new lads a full 90 mins we would
see a change
