Ryan Taylor is having his time in the sun, after that wonderful goal he scored after 62 minutes that won the game at Sunderland on Saturday.
Krul – with super hero Taylor after the game
Krul wasn’t too shabby either!
It was an unexpected win, especially after Newcastle struggled so much in the first half, but we were just delighted that a top professional like Ryan is getting the plaudits he thoroughly deserves.
When was the last time you heard him moan about anything? In IBM parlance, he’s what we would call a low maintenance employee, and Alan Pardew has certainly been singing his praises since Saturday’s game.
This is what Pardew said about the player, whose best position is probably out on the right wing:
“Ryan has come into the side and was brilliant last week.” “He was brilliant again at Sunderland and got the goal to cap it all off.”
“He took the plaudits and he deserves them.” “You get different characters in the game. Ryan is not one who gets too fiery and it helped us.”
“He was very calm, he is a cool footballer and that helps us on days like Saturday.” “We now have the chance to be top of the league after three games if we can win our match against Fulham.”
“Now that would be something and that is what we will be aiming to do.”
And Ryan’s goal was not dissimilar to the goal he scored against Ipswich on September 26th, 2009, after the Bobby Robson memorial service held in Durham Cathedral the previous Monday with 1500 invited guests including the Newcastle team.
Ryan scored the third goal in the first half from a free kick out on the left and also 20 yards out, and three first half goals came in a time-frame of just 5 minutes, and the lads were brilliant that day and 3-0 up at half time.
They eventually won the game 4-0 with a terrific overall display, and were obviously inspired by the memory of Sir Bobby, the former Ipswich, Newcastle and England manager, who was loved throughout the world of football.
And Alan Pardew, in the same interview today, gave even m,ore praise to the traveling Newcastle fans:
He added:
“They were brilliant. They were last year and we let them down in the same fixture. They went home disappointed because of a late goal, which we were unlucky to concede.”
“They had to hang around at the end and we conceded the goal. They had to hang around again – but they were much, much happier.”
Newcastle fans tend to complain about Newcastle a lot, and most of it is even justified, but the lads produced the goods on Saturday afternoon, there’s no doubt about that, and they certainly got the job done.
Let’s give the lads the credit they deserve and a big Well done!
Now the question is whether Derek LLambias and Mike Ashley get the job done in the last 9 days of this transfer window for the Newcastle club.
We have to hope so.

21 drongo // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:09 PM
@obertoon
Erdinc – by a mile
Simmo has more pace, but on performances so far Id start Raylor – set pieces aside he is a more solid defender.
22 zaktoon_swede // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:10 PM
someone has probably mentioned it already but apparently we have agreed a deal for a right back from watford worth 2.2m (its on twitter & nufcblog.com) and it makes sense since john carver was seen at ricoh arena last weekend.
any ideas who it could be? first I thought it was eddie oshodi but he’s on loan at rushden & diamonds. lee hodson fits the bill perfectly (u19, u21 experience) but he plays for northern ireland… :O
as for adam campbell; i think he’s a future star. it’s still to early to tell but he won the “nike tournament best player award” previously picked up by the likes of tevez, torres n iniesta… very promising indeed!
wrote it before but everyone had moved on…

I posted on the last thread about downloading the games via Usenet its an easy thing to learn just goggle .nzb and Usenet if there’s any demand I will help, but I will only help those who want to use it for private use I will not help anyone who fancy a bit of piracy, more and more games are being uploaded mostly hd now .mvk files. the Sunderland game was 3.38gig so the use of paid servers is advisable a free trial would get you 1 game.

28 ~Obertoon~ // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:13 PM
Id honestly start Simmo over Raylor… because of his pace… Simmo is still young and can improve, has the potential to be a very good Right back… On top of that Alot of teams have pacy wingers… Raylor might get outpaced…
We also have Cabaye and Barton for Set pieces… Granted Raylor might be Better then Barton, we still havent seen what cabaye can do…

30 IndianapolisToon // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:16 PM
@6
I agree. I think he absolutely has earned a run in the side. Don’t get me wrong I like Simpson, but I don’t think Taylor gives as much ground as Simpson does and definitely provides an offensive threat with his crossing and FK’s. Assuming no other right sided players are brought in, I think him and Barton (or whoever for that matter) could develop something special on the right side.
31 zaktoon_swede // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:18 PM

Erdinc has a lot of fire in him ..works really hard , fast, good feet…never gives up ,closest thing I have seen to
Malcolm Mc’Donalds old style of playing ..Some similarities,
but maybe not the left foot that Mac had..
Miaga just sounds like a headcase.
I have seen him score some decent goals ..so cant just be a lucky season with 15 last time out .Potential , but where’s his head?..He could be another Obefemi.

I dunno anything about a signing, but Carr was at the Watford vs Coventry match and Pards was in Holland watching Pieters.
Who Carr was scouting we can only guess, prob some young lad making a name for himself in one of the clubs.

38 NottsGeordie // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:22 PM
Simmo has been solid these first two games, he has more pace and a lot more potential. Simpson has to be the starting RB.
39 Ben_BKK // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:24 PM
@ Thump
Aye, Sunderland signed Pieters on my FM11 too lol, although he’s not that great really. Derdiyok is constantly linked with me but I don’t need him as I signed Benzema from Madrid for 9m (he starts the game transfer listed
). Also signed Dzsudzsak (the Hungarian winger from PSV), Gervinho, Zapata and Lorenzo De Silvestri, the young RB from Fiorentina.
Then I’ve got Van Nistelrooy, Demichelis and Van Bommel coming in on frees at the end of the season, and Tom Huddlestone joining for 12m.
Imagine if the FCB made those signings in real life, we’d be challenging top 4 easily!

@NottsGeordie
I saw the interview with him on NUFCTV, and one of his goals for the season was to go more forward, i think he really tried that at Sunderland, without much luck im afraid tho.
That said, Sunderland got through allot on the right side in the first half, Simpson should be better at this stage tbh, despite his age.
42 Indian Magpie // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:25 PM

according to the “rumours” it’s a young right back… lee hodson the only one who fits bill by te look of things! (highly rated by hornet-fans) but if were in the hunt for a young right back we should put in a bid for nathaniel clyne, top prospect

If Simpson decides not to sign the contract, we should employ allot of coaching work into young Tavernier, he seems so solid at only 19.
Might be a future international.

Sitting in 3rd after 9 games, 20 points and a goal difference of +20 (6 won, 2 drawn, 1 lost). First bloody time I’ve managed to get such a good start to the season on here!
Pro tip: If you want decent players on the cheap, unsettle them like a wild man. I got all of the above for around £18m – and that’s before I talk about the youngsters!

No idea how you managed to get him for that little, I tried unsettling him and all that but Madrid wouldn’t lower their asking price at all!
I finished 4th in my first season, managed to overtake Arsenal and Chelsea on the last day. Benzema finished with 26 league goals, Dzudzsak with 23 league assists. Ben Arfa won players’ young player of the season. Not a bad start. Shame all my free transfers are gonna use up this season’s budget though

Simpson’s a good right-back, he hasn’t done a thing wrong this season.
He didn’t do much wrong last season and against some of the top wingers in the world.
I really don’t understand the criticism he gets.
Gosling needs to play in front of Cabaye & Tiote in a five man midfield.
61 Ben_BKK // Aug 22, 2011 at 5:49 PM
Oh and I’ve signed a pre-contract agreement with Thiago Alcantara from Barca, they weren’t offering him anything decent and he kept rejecting them. At first he didn’t even want to negotiate with me but after rejecting Barca a couple of times he agreed a deal.
Ah, if only real life could be like this eh?

We are cheapskates trying to make a profit on EVERY player, If we get Pieters (watched was rather average) and Erding or Maiga surely they are worse than Jose and Carroll tad pointless in buying worse replacements.
I’ll be shocked if we get a ST, might get LB on loan but won’t spent any decent money.

Gosling isnt a CAM he is more of a box to box midfielder/defensive midfielder. If anyone should be playing in the CAM role it should be Cabaye as he has better vision and can link up play more.
As for Simpson i completely agree. He is last in every MOM poll on here but never does anything wrong. He has made 0 mistakes in two games but yet Tiote is a head of him in the vote. Tiote was awful yesterday. People just vote for the known names that get all the attention.
70 geoff777 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:03 PM

It would be very encouraging for Simpson to be called up.
I hope he’ll sign a new contract.
We don’t need another Enrique situation developing.
Capello’s going to have to come to SJP, he’s being shamed into it.
Shocking really, how long has he been England manager?
Perhaps he’ll notice Simmo & Gosling are very talented young players?

But he was better this match than the Arsenal match.
74 dmac // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:05 PM
I rate Simmo both as a left back and as a bloke, he seems pretty straight up and decent. Id rate him more if he signed that new contract!
75 Dannyo // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:07 PM
We all keep talking about the team without Ben Arfa, but he’s the one we’re supposedly building the team around.
I’ll go as far as saying our midfield is of top 4 quality, but we need striker and defense to be up to speed aswell, but we won’t see that this season.
Ben Arfa, staying injury free, will be hell of a player this season, i’m like a kid at christmas thinking about what he can do.
76 Ollieh51 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:08 PM
I think people overlook Simo because he doesn’t make many mistakes/do anything silly that gets him the high profile attention.
Titoé is a yard off and has almost cost 2 pens in 2 games yet people feel he was worthy on the MOM award?
Simo is probably one of only 3 players that is guaranteed a place in the starting line up and deserves a lot more praise. (Coloccini, Tioté being the others.)
You wait, theres’ an England call up coming for him soon…
77 Indian Magpie // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:11 PM

78 dave 1961 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:12 PM
Indian Magpie @65 I would be happy to play at left back or centre forward but as I am 50 this month the team could suffer, mind I would probably take the pressure of Barton as I am a awful looser, and god help the ref if he gave me a card, they would still be talking about what I had done when I was 100.
79 Ollieh51 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:14 PM
And I bet you’ve forgotten the number of times his pace at the back has saved our arses Indian Magpie?
Look at it this way, who would you replace him with from the other clubs in the league? You’ll not see too many others at the same age etc that could do a job.
Correct me if I’m wrong…
80 NottsGeordie // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:16 PM

82 NottsGeordie // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:19 PM

The only young full backs i can think of are Kelly, Walker and the Da Silvas but they all play for the top teams. Simmo is a very good player and will only get better.
83 Ollieh51 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:21 PM
Indian Magpie
Which is probably why he’s called a defender?!
Look at how many times Jonas covered José in the past? You watch, when Liverpool play a team with good counter attacking capabilities like City, even he will get caught out.
I’d much ratehr have a great defensive left back than one constantly bombing up the pitch.
Roberto Carlos
Riise
Dani Alves
Cafu
Maicon…
All great players going forwards, don’t think any of them were very good defensively at all.
Just my opinion…
84 Ollieh51 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:24 PM
Agreed Notts.
We’ve had a touch there getting him for £500,000.
I honestly can’t think of another player at his level that we would do well to replace him with that has the pace, strength and awareness.
He has areas to develop like showing wingers out as opposed to backing off them on the edge of the box but he’s still young and will get better like you said.
85 Indian Magpie // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:25 PM

86 ilovetoon8788 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:32 PM
Simpson is a very good right-back. He doesn’t does anything eye catching. Makes the odd runs upfield and is fast. Decent right-back to have. But not the best around. I still rate him though. He got lots to improve on before he becomes a top quality right back. He stands off his marker too much and gets caught out of position once too often and players like Barton had to cover for him.
87 geoff777 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:33 PM

Indian Magpie – Decent player but again, too forward thinking.

He’s good but there has to be a reason that Tottenham haven’t played him all this time?
93 WWJBD // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:42 PM
Most teams primarily attack through their left wings which then means the opponents team have to primairly defend with their right side
Simpson is a right back….see what am getting at? With all his faults he is progressing as a defender every game and no defender is faultless. Imo he is our best right back and I don’t see why he should lose his place without a all out brawl. Last two games he was barely put a foot wrong….so give him a break

How did you do the updates yourself getting the players like Cabaye?

My point is many managers change the games from Right back position i dont think we have that option
Hell we dont even have a striker
96 GeordieToon89 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:44 PM
on one my old games a sold Shola and fans wer kicking off and everytime board did one they meeting things they said dissapointed with sale of him :s
a signed Wickham aswel for £3million at start, always get him straight away if u can get him cheap and loan him out for a season he’s class.. got loads of youngsters when a sold me players me reserves n youth teams are class

NottsGeordie – Just go on editor and do all the transfers/manager/league changes manually takes a while but good cos keeps me interested while ano the new games being prepared haha, a only really do the premiership and what ano of in the lower leagues and foreign which isnt much, always do all the premiership though
99 GeordieCoaster // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:48 PM
Tip: Never sign Diaby. He’s a pain in the *rse, he always complains. I bought him for 3mil and got 10mil for him 2 years later though!
100 WWJBD // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:49 PM

Easy way to get money add a manager for man city and buy a under 18 player for 70million then retire
101 NottsGeordie // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:50 PM
:O i never knew that Geordie Toon. I love doing that
i used to do it after every transfer window on fifa. Keeps me entertained for hours 
102 NottsGeordie // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:52 PM
WWJBD
I tried that and tried to sign Campbell for 30 mill but tge stupid d!ck turned me down
i feel bad doing that anyway, not within the spirit of the game 
103 Ollieh51 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:52 PM
Exactly WWJBD.
His 1st job is to defend, we don’t need him missing halfway up the pitch when we’re gettign countered thanks.
Him, Coloccini and Jonas have maybe been our most consistent performers for the last 2+ seasons?
104 WWJBD // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:52 PM

Am glad some others on here are sticking up for Simmo tbh so am always happy to join in haha
105 GeordieToon89 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:55 PM
WWJBD – a used to do tht when a couldnt sell a player haha and needed money dont anymore though lol
Cabaye was unsettled on mine after like 7 games so a had to send him away but a had plenty cover
Jagielka is a bargain for 9million mind hes class hes me captain, normally play him and Colo
106 GeordieToon89 // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:56 PM
3-1 to Man Utd tonight.
107 ONLINE GUY // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:57 PM

Notts
aye its not in the spirit but I got bored of computer Ashley being as tight as he is in the real world 
Haha that’s why I go for under 18s they go for low wages
Ollieh
Aye mate I am happy for him to shy away from attacking tbh he is a defender after all though he does put some good crosses in when he gets the chance
Overall am happy with him being out main RB
109 GeordieCoaster // Aug 22, 2011 at 6:58 PM
I remember I sold Vuckic to Man Utd for 7.5 million because Mike Ashley forced the transfer. I was asked in a press conference how I feel and I bashed MA. A few weeks later he sold the club

125 IPToon // Aug 22, 2011 at 7:26 PM
Danny Simpson has done a solid job so far this season but he definately isnt fast. The whole reason he stands off so much is because he is scared someone will hit and run past him.
Also to the person who said he will get an England call up, lets not get carried away. He would need a lot of injuries before that happens as he must be behind. Glenn Johnson, Kyle Walker and Micah Richards amongst others. Still good start to the season by him.

Newcasatle has signed another youngster. This time its Lee Desmond from Irish side Cherry Orchard. More of him and JJ Hooper on the offical site.
138 JP...from The Rock // Aug 22, 2011 at 8:09 PM
Simmo is decent but no way can be considered for England yet. He backs off opposing players way too much and always allows them to get into dangerous positions like the penalty area. He has to be more confident and stronger in his tackles. He also has to help out in our counters more as he seems scared of advancing in even the most clear-cut opportunities.
Having said that he does cover ground very well and some interceptions he’s made have saved us from humiliation. I don’t have to mention how important his goal-line clearances have been for us. He is also very consistent which is always the sign of a good player. If only he would stop backing of attackers and push them off the pitch early he would be top dog for us.
I like Travernier a lot and as young as he may still be I think when his loan spell ends he will be direct competition for Simmo. He likes to attack more and is faster than Simmo.
For our LB situation I would love to see Patrick Van Aanholt here as he is class and won’t cost Ashley more than 4-5M.
For our ST predicament anyone, young, quick and a great finisher- hell anyone just no more Strolla Ameobi!
139 Toon1978 // Aug 22, 2011 at 8:17 PM

Good news on them two new kids but i am a little concerned that we have heard no more on Darnel Situ and the other lad.Have you heard anything more on them?
140 Toon1978 // Aug 22, 2011 at 8:18 PM
The other kid is William Remy.
141 Kurt // Aug 22, 2011 at 8:28 PM
No haven’t heard anything about them 2, hope at least we sign up this Situ lad.
142 GeordieToon89 // Aug 22, 2011 at 8:33 PM
NottsGeordie and WWJBD – If yous need a good RB on FM11 get Sebastian Corchia he’s class, Kyle Walker is class aswel but if you dont get him straight away he normally costs loads
143 Lee Dodd // Aug 22, 2011 at 8:36 PM
If Ryan Taylor is that Good and he can Play as a Quality Left back then do we need a New Player ??? Get 2 New Strikers then for 20 Million !!!

146 gorgonzola // Aug 22, 2011 at 8:45 PM
I must say…The sh1t that Modric is stirring is a bit lame….Being my countryman is a bit depressing …with all his attitude. I mean why the hell are these players nowadays behaving like kids….

hello lads , i dont post very often but im on evry day readin posts , i gotta say i love the results so far an well done , but we gotta realise we’re bein mugged by the managment , the worst thing is pardew is bein fed lies by ma/dl and i think he genuinly wants to get these last 2 players in, but how many times are we gonna get these false bids an this goes back years, they got no intention of doin the right thing cos we chant an swear at them lol, but we gotta open our eyes an just hope he sells to a better owner who loves the toon, am sorry for bein negg but thats my conclusion lads ,, hwtl

152 jesperfuglsang // Aug 22, 2011 at 9:16 PM
@Thump, GeordieCoaster, WWJBD &GeordieToon89
I started a game where I only buy French player – the French revolution
had to stretch the rule a bit because I didn’t have the money to buy the players I wanted. I do intend to rectify my error later hehe…
I play 4-2-3-1 with Gamiero as a lone striker; first season he bagged 23 goals and the second 37. HBA plays just behind as a #10 scoring 18 goals and 10 assist in his first season; been down hill for him ever since.
Bought Cabaye but Ashley sold him the next season because he’s a cheap skate
hehe…bought Sissoko instead.
Griezmann plays on the left wing and still hav to find a good right wing I can afford. Mendy is my back up for Tiote, but need a new midfielder (Tiote is not French enough hehe)
Boucher is my backup keeper for Krul, and in defence I have Situ, Appiah, Digne and Bassong.
Nolan Roux and Makengo are backup for Gameiro. Bought Mehdi Abeit as well; loaned him out.
Came in third in my second season and know i’m first half way through my third season.
153 Mancgeordie // Aug 22, 2011 at 9:37 PM

154 toonboyjake // Aug 22, 2011 at 9:40 PM

155 Toon-82 // Aug 22, 2011 at 9:54 PM
Im hearing rumours that we want the Watford keeper Loach, he ist a bad keeper in my eyes and my mate is a Watford fan, reckons he would be a good buy and a good back up to Krul.
156 ToonDownSouth // Aug 22, 2011 at 10:01 PM
toonboyjake
I thought he looked p!ss poor every time I’ve seen him play for United.
He only came alive once he’d scored :/
157 toonboyjake // Aug 22, 2011 at 10:03 PM
think hes a confidence player, took the goal well and was confident enough to try the back heel for andersons goal, looks a decent player to me and if im not mistaken he can play on the wing aswell?
158 Spuggy // Aug 22, 2011 at 10:06 PM
Latest News/signings:
- Carr was scouting Scott Loach @ Watford as third choice keeper if we feel to bring in Charlton’s Rob Elliott
- The club’s Academy has welcomed two new youngsters on scholarship agreements – defender Lee Desmond and forward JJ Hooper. JJ scored a Hatrick against Chelsea U18s.
- Newcastle are giving trials to two Lens Centre Backs, Danny Situ and William Rémy, who have both played for the France Youth sides at U19 level. Remy scored one of the goals against Chelsea U18
- This follows the continued scouting of young talent including the previous acquisitions of promising youngsters Yven Moyo and Mehdi Abeid
- Peiters remains the most likely LB acquisition following Pardews visit to PSV whilst sitting beside Peiters agent. Peiters had a good game.
- Interest reportedly remains in Sochaux’s striker/winger Modibo Maiga although a ‘tapping-up’ claim has been made by the club
- Erdinc rumours have resurfaced again although Newcastle interest was reported to have ended some weeks ago

Hope we offer Guthrie a new contract. He’s perfectly adequate back up. Feel safe with him in place of Tiote.

To be honest, the whole saga is probably making Sochaux not want to sell to us.
I can see them not wanting to be ‘bullied’ into selling.
