Morrison is on his way to Norwich for £2m. IMO that's about his level, I don't think he's a higher-tier Premiership striker. Good, but nothing special.

As for Ashton now, I dunno. Norwich don't really need to sell, but Newcastle desperately need someone and they could do a lot worse *cough*Anelka*cough* than trying to land him. It'd take about £5m or more but as a long-term investment (what is he, 22?) I'd say that's decent money.

that was the point I was trying to get across Dazz, I only thought id mention the premiership managers and my opinions on their credentials as England manager.

At the moment I dont think there is any intention by the FA of replacing Sven. Like I said he will be ther until after the world cup (which we wont win) and then he will prob quit rather than be sacked IMO.

Also, Aiden McGeady is seen in the Irish set-up as a striker, that is where he played for the youth teams.
He wasn't the only player to miss a penalty against Spain, and his attitude has been fine here. I remember Elliott missed an easy chance against the Faroes too. When he's on form he is a better player than Morrison, not sure about Elliott because he did very well last season and is quite young, but even he was dropped for the back end of last season, so i don't know whether he has problems too.

I don't want to argue about it though, as you, Eoghan and Adam don't like him and probably won't change your opinion, but neither will i. If he's not wanted then i'd sooner he didn't play so he isn't risking injury anyway.

The papers are saying Newcastle have made a bid for Luque, which would be a great signing if they pulled it off.

Luque, the 27-year-old Spain forward, was Souness' next target but a deal is understood to have collapsed.

Chairman Freddy Shepherd told official website www.nufc.co.uk: "We have made an offer to Deportivo La Coruna for Albert Luque.

"We are now waiting for their response which may or may not lead to the player coming to Newcastle."

His attitude stinks, and it's the entire package I am going by. I could see him being in the squad if he could be relied upon to nick a goal or score a penalty, but he's more likely to throw a strop or get sent off.

His poor attitude has followed him through his career. Morrison is a better player, too. Brings far more to the team.

His attitude was bad, but like i say, we've had no problems with him. I don't know if he's got problems with playing for Ireland, but i've not heard anything like that being said.

Connolly gives the same effort as Morrison and is a better finisher, i'd rather have him to score in a one-on-one than Morrison, and he's a more intelligent player. It's his attitude in the past which cost him a chance of playing premiership football, Sunderland were sniffing around this summer but decided to get Andy Gray, who looked pretty average on the opening day.

Coach Joaquin Caparros believes that Deportivo La Coruna should sell striker Albert Luque to Newcastle United if the price is right.

Negotiations appeared to have reached a dead end on Friday with the two clubs failing to agree a transfer fee for the 27-year-old Spain international left winger. Newcastle are thought to have offered £7.5million, but Depor are holding out for £10.2million.

"I am counting on having Luque, but I would understand his sale should a good offer arrive," Caparros said in El Mundo Deportivo. "That is even more the case when you consider we are in a delicate economic state."

Caparros replaced Javier Irureta as Depor coach in the summer, but lack of funds have hampered his attempts at bringing in new players and although Luque is in his plans, he is pragmatic enough to see his sale would solve several problems.

"My way of thinking is that should an important offer come in, then we should sell because that allows you to bring in other players and to grow," added Caparros.

"At the moment, I have heard nothing new from what I knew last week, but if we sold him, we would have to adapt."

My fantasy team gined 21 points today, some of them still to play tomorrow. Sadly 16 pts will get deducted of that score after i made 5 transfers last week.the Bent-Rooney partnership should help though!

Btw, we really need a striker, i can't believe Freddy is being such a stubborn bastard about getting the money for Luque, now we have a chance of getting a striker our chairman probably thinks we don't really need one...

We've got Baros.

Nice way to report the news.Get your facts straight next time, as Cactus said, Deportivo rejected our bid, not Luque.As I said before, Shepherd needs to leave, how comes we can bid £10m for owen but not for Luque?Something is not right.

Owen is a proven European and International goal scorer and has played in England before. Luque hasn't.

I know Luque isn't a proven goalscorer like owen, but Luque would fit in our formation were using at the moment perfectly, as he can play on the left and create chances aswell as score them.He would be a good partner upfront for Shearer, better than Owen overall I think,Owen just guarantee's you goals, not usually assists.

What the fuck...

Newcastle have made a club record bid for Owen, who said he'd accept being a Newcastle player.

£15 million plus.

Newcastle.

Owen would suit Newcastle a lot more - they need a goalscorer, they simply don't have one anymore.

Shearer is officially past it now, Ameobi just confuses himself with those big black legs, and Chopra is a Division one player at best.

Owen in front of a solid classy midfield might put them Top 8.

I woke up exactly as this news broke today, best news I could've woken up to. this is alot different to when we bidded for rooney, we never seriously wanted rooney as ive explained before somewhere in this thread, but we seriously want Owen, plus Madrid have agreed to our offer,Everton didn't agree to the Rooney bid.I just can't wait until this transfer goes through, however if it doens't go through then i will be incredibly pissed off.

It all depends on Owen himself, he has stated he would prefer to go back to Liverpool & will only go to Newcastle on loan should the liverpool move not materialise.

The fee is believed to be £18m, not a bad profit for Real, I cant see liverpool buying him unless they sell Cinama, Cisse or Morientes. The only other option is for Benni to change his system or continue to use Cisse out wide.

It'll be a good buy for newcastle should Owen agree to go. LOL at Everton apperently putting a bid in aswell.

I cant wait to see match of the day tonight, apparently there was some good goals by Lua Lua and Mark Viduka. Skysports describe Viduka's goal :

Viduka smashed home a wonderful second which will surely be a candidate for goal of the season - even at this early stage.

The goal was all the work of the former Leeds man as he received a throw in on the edge of the Birmingham area, he then tricked his way past three players before unleashing a Van Basten-esque volley into the corner leaving Taylor stranded.


how good does that sound?

*awaits tv footage which will show the goal was prob a 1 yard tap in.*

Wish we went in for Owen, our performances so far have shown that we need someoen to get the ball in the back of the net.
