It's Debuchy by the way mate. questions such as these are often better posted in Shearer's ebar.
Basically just think of the ebar as a place for smaller questions/topics to be posted so as not to clutter up the board.
Apprecaite you are new so just a wee point of guidance that's all.
It's great to see new members getting 'stuck in' though.![]()

Really, he struggled against Spain which can happen to anyone. Was certainly France's best player against England.

I though he had a solid but unspectacular Euro campaign but to be honest in case people hadn't noticed we tend to scout players thoroughly and effectively so you can guarantee he's been on our radar for at least 6 months - a few internationals aren't going to affect our interest in him, we'll be more interested in his club form (which is a much better indicator as to how he'd be at Newcastle).
As for the MOTM, if in doubt give it to a player who scored - doesn't mean anything other than they're typical hacks.
Really. Take your Mags blinkers off. If it wasn't public knowledge you were about to sign him you may have watched him without prejudice in his favour. He was probably ok (6/10) against England. The other games he was dreadful in.
PS MOTM as awarded by the papers and at the stadium on the day by UEFA was Nasri.

I actually didn't believe we were going to get him at that point, surely if I was using mag blinkers then I would say Cabaye was France's best player in that game.
