Ambrose is sometimes quite good, but mostly damn frustrating. A bit like Robert, but at least he scores quite a few. Ameobe is looking very posotive though.
As for Alan, he's just an absolute legend, and not replaceable in my book. Not sure what the plan on the transfer market is? Probably spending it on a new pitch
Come on the TOON!

Got to add, that was really dis-respectful to kick Al like that. Hopefully they'll take a look at it.
True what they say though, its a very rare site to see him stay down.

to replace big al, fat freds gonna have to dig very deep into his pockets
they'll need to spend in the region of £15-£20 million, who? i don't know but thats the sort of money it'll take. as for larson he's a class player but i think he's a little old for a replacement for al. and i hope they don't buy smith as he not a prolific goal scorer, good player but not the answer. kilvert maybe. out of the 3 mentioned(sp) he's probabaly the best not sure if he's the answer.

Beattie?! If you mean homegrown England replacemet, there's got to be better than Beattie. Quite different playing styles. If you mean foreign club replacement, there's got to be someone like Ronald we can steal

Richie, I agree, he's an annoying ****, but good potential.
Just cant imagine the bother with Alan Smith, Craig Bellamy, Dyer, Woodgate and Bowyer, all in the same team, without the main man to keep them all in line...
They're all a bit lairy Good to see Woodgate calmed down though, and playing outstanding...

>If you mean homegrown England replacemet, there's got to be better than Beattie. Quite different playing styles. If you mean foreign club replacement, there's got to be someone like Ronald we can steal'
Name 1 more player that's more Shearer-like than James Beattie, doesn't even have to be english player either? Shearer has been Beattie's role-model ever since he cleaned his boots at Southampton. We will never be able to replace Shearer but that's the closest we would get. Alan Smith or even Patrick Kluivert are not natural goalscorers and will not get you 20 plus goals every season, however players like Gudjohnnson, Forsell, Kezman, Vieri, Drogba, Ronaldo, Beattie, Morietes, Raul, Trezeguet, even attacking midfielders like Ronaldinho, Zidane, Figo or Totti will but what's the chances of some of those names even considering joining us?
If any of those last four i mentioned signed for us i'd be happy with just Bellamy/Ameobi/Chopra up front with Offiong as backup, would certainly soften the blow of losing such an important player as Alan.

pete newcastle are STILL in europe and more than likely they WILL be in europe next season
the one player that i think is similar to shearer is viduka but he's a bit lazy. think Gudjohnnson has been linked to newcastle and i think he would be a good replacement

Losing Woody, Dyer, Jenas and Bellamy was always going to be a massive blow to take, especially considering Viana gets a starting place.
Can somebody please tell me what he contributes to the team?? The woeful attempt at a header on halfway just before the first goal just shows what he's all about.
I'm totally in bits about going out tonight, all be it to a very good side. After all, Barthez didn't have a meaningful save to make all night.
But as stated above, who wants to come and play for us?? The only hope we have of attracting any quality players is to be in the CL, but that looks less likely after the poor defeat to a relegation threatened team last weekend. Don't fancy going to Liverpool an the last day needing a win.
