    I think he'll bring them up to Spurs level. They've got a decent squad, they only need the worlds greatest physio plus a new defence. If someone could organise those muppets they'd be a good team.

Allardyce will toughen them up, get them motivated - but other than that he won't take them to the glory that for some reason newcastle think they belong with. The standard and gap between the big four and the rest is huge now and imo the only team that look like breaking into/challenging the top four is spurs - they have a good set up, good manager and appear to have decent finances
      You can just imagine the way they will play can´t you, beef up the midfield with Parker, Butt and some other thug and hoof the ball to Martins and Owen. Unless Sam goes back for Kevin Davies But I think they´ll still make a decent top six (byt that I mean spots 5 and 6 possibly) side, IF they lose Owen or Martins that´ll mean more money in the coffers and Allardyce doesn´t need much. They should move fast and get Distin in and a half decent left back as well and they would improve without a doubt under Sam.
      * The above is posted in my opinion. Feel free to disagree.

        The sentiments in most of that sentence are predictable but the first three words are quite a shock.

        It's about time someone with a high profile in English football was open about it. Well done Sam.

        Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

          Back to Houllier football for Owen
          Just believe and you never know what will happen.

          According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

            i think he'll sort them out. gut feeling, i think he might put pressure in the big 4 in 2-3 years, more than he did with bolton ,and more than tottenham ever will. he might not play the prettiest football, and i hate his guts but he gets results, and i think they have the bast manager they have had in a long time...

              Oh no, Allardyce with cash.

              Means even more ale house football, just with faster players.
              You walk down road.

              Right side, ok. Left side ok. Through middle. Squish, just like grape.

              Same with Karate.

                he will finish top 6 with them next season.

                Like him or not he has well drilled football sides.

                Newcastle have some good players, and if he can sort them out tactically they will do well.

                    Typical Sam players, three players over 30 and one troublemaker.

                      I don't think Alladyce would go for Barton. The trouble makers he has taken have had far less profound problems than Barton, who appears to have no wish to improve his behaviour. BBC says he has been arrested about the assault by the way.

                      I think he doesn't get the credit he deserves. At times, especially when they had Okocha Bolton played some very good football. His problem was that he could never attract players at their peak and really was only capable of bringing in one big signing a season. I think Newcastles cash will mean that he will produce a good team. I would say he is more like Mourinho and Rafa in terms of his philosophy than many are willing to admit.

                      He will have to buy a defence but with the possibility of Hyppia being available and Distin on a free that might not be as big a task as it appears. The preponderance of wingers in their squad will be a big help to him and his style. Martins will do okay in his prefered 4-5-1/4-3-3 formation. I think he will get the best out of Butt. So I think it will work out well if Shepherd allows him a free hand.

                        wouldnt be at all surprised to see Viduka go to the Toon.

                        Big lump of a lad....very good at holding up the ball, and will allow Owen and Martins to feed of him.
