Ulaganja u omladinski pogon

Toon owner Mike Ashley is believed to have ordered a major revamp at Newcastle United – in a move which sees the Magpies attempt to keep pace with some of Europe’s biggest clubs.


Pa, red je bio da se prizna - naše rezerve i omladinci već godinama ne uspevaju da se probiju u prvi tim, a sa odlaskom Tavernier-a na pozajmicu je otprilike zaokruženo loše poslovanje sa klincima. U poslednjih deset godina šačica igrača iz klupske akademije je dobila šansu u prvom timu, dok su svega dvojica uspela - Steven Taylor i Andy Carroll. Preslabo.

Sada Ashley najavljuje ulaganja u akademiju. Dobra vest, jer tako se prave veliki klubovi, a i loša, jer smo sad već sigurni da neće skoro prodati klub. Sa druge strane, ako Mike zna nešto da radi, to je da stvara novac - znači, ukoliko uloži velike pare, vratiće mu se.

Zaboravio si najsjajniji primjerak nase omladinske akademije. Jednog i jedinog, Ameobija. Da bude gore nije jedini jer mu je i brat krenuo njegovim trapavim stopama.

Rekoh, 10 godina.

Na našu nesreću, Foluwasholu gledamo više od dekade....

Samo neće ponoviti uspjeh svoga brata....

Ranger je dobar ali je kreten. Shane Ferguson je prošle sezone zablistao, treba njega na posudbu u Championship....
Shane bi mogao biti dobar igrač. Pa i Vučkić isto...

Novo izdanje True Faith-a:

Things seem to be happening with the Academy with the start of a clearout underway and talk of grand strategies for the bringing in of new talent. Any of us long in the tooth will have heard this stuff before (Hall and his “11 Geordies” baloney for example) but now it seems very much as though the club really does mean it. Anyone with the faintest contact with those connected to the Academy speaks of a far greater level of investment and attention to detail going on there. United’s scouting has improved dramatically and the likes of Tiote and Cabaye as well as Ba are evidence of that. At last we seem to be being run as a proper football club when for so often under Shepherd in particular, we were like the Phoenix Nights of football. All fur coat and no knickers … and the fur coat was on tick. Now there seems to be a deliberate tactic of not making the club over-dependent upon one or two iconic players with the overall strategy improving the strength of the squad, the measure rather than the star appeal of a couple of players to help sell replica shirts. This isn’t a eulogy to Mike Ashley or Derek Llambias but I’m more comfortable this is better for United than lashing millions on sh*** like Owen, Martins, Viduka, Duff, Luque, Viana, Boumsong, Marcelino, Maric, Geremi, Cacapa, Smith and too many others who almost drove the club into ruin.

We all have our own opinions on the areas of the squad that need to be strengthened as we are all entitled to and I believe the club is exposed currently at centre-half and left-back in particular. But come the summer, the manager should be given some funds to invest as we prepare to lose Harper, Smith, Lovenkrands and possibly Best from the payroll. God deliver us also from Xisco, whose wages I’m sure we are still paying as he trundles his way to oblivion in the Spanish second division. I want the club’s financial status to be healthy , I don’t want us to be a home for players whose best years are behind them and who aren’t going to make the grade. Every player at United should be ready and able to come into the team.

Ovako nešto je cena koju i dalje plaćamo zbog očajnog menadžmenta. Ovog derana smo pustili da kao slobodan igrač od osamnaest godina ode u Tursku. Sad, četiri godine kasnije, njega hoće Juventus, jer njima je, očigledno, dovoljno dobar.



Australia midfielder James Troisi is on the verge of a dream move to Serie A champions Juventus.

The 23-year-old winger has turned down a $6million contract from Qatari club El Jaish in favour of testing himself against Europe's best in Italy.

According to SBS's The World Game Troisi will immediately go on loan to newly-promoted Serie A club Pescara for the coming season, implying Juventus view him as a prospect for the future.

Proslediće ga odmah u Pescar-au kako bi iz iste te Pescara-e doveli nekog njihovog igrača. Italijanski transferi...

...ovo boldano i crveno je jako dobra vijest jer nam daje mogućnost većeg manevra i potrage za igračima van samog područja Newcastla i okolice...

Ja vidim rozu boju a ne crvenu.

Jeste, samo mi je crvena kao boja odvratna!   

Za crvenu boju se ne zajebavam. Odvratna je!

Imam ja drugara koji je daltonista, studirao je sa mnom DIF. Svi smo na časovima bili u plavim šortsevima, kad eto ti ga Điđa u ljubičastom šortsu. Kažem mu ja, da li si Điđo normalan, što si došao u takvom šortsu, hočeš da te profesor isključi sa časa? Điđa mi je 'ladno odgovorio - Pa, plav je.
