Newcastle United 2012/13?

True! trust ****ing Liverfool to ****ing not beat them today. I would love to make a few signs should those horrible ****s go down.

 

Fair points, however my thoughts on players departing would be on the grounds that they get replaced
UOTE=Tash.;2593293]Losing Simmo and Willo will not help us. We need to increase squad depth not lose it.

Willo isn't a bad defender, he just can't be relied on for consistency over a long period of time. He's good for covering 4-5 games or so. When he first came back he was solid.

We just need to buy another quality CB that can rival Saylor for that first team spot.

I like the sound of our CB depth with these players -

Colo
Saylor
Douglas
Willo
Perch

We have two quickish CB's that are intelligent and are mobile. We'll have 2 CB's that can deal with physical threats very well and can be perfect partners for Colo. And we have Willo. Willo can be useful if we're going into Europe. We just need to be in a position where Willo is basically a cover CB to play in the odd game where we have injuries. Not one that will be just behind the first choice CB's and have to be relied upon long term.

We will need to rotate a lot and we cannot rely on Saylor being first for a full season if he's gonna be first choice to partner Colo.

And about Simmo - We lack depth in the fullback area as it is. Simmo isn't brilliant, and we should go for better to balance the quality around our defence, but he could be a very valuable member of the squad, similar to Willo.

Willo and Simmo should be kept.

Ranger and Smith = Can **** off.

Lover = Good player, technical, but he's never gonna get a game. He should go to a CC team. He can score 15+ goals for a team in that league and be a creative spark.[/QUOTE]
