Any of the players I signed (especially Lescott) would be awesome for Toon. I also swear by Bentley on the right for Toon.

Good luck anyway mate, need any more help then just shout.

right wing, try a guy called hao junmin
he might not be an immediate solution but he has some potential
defenders: ignashevich (if still on a free), and for potential - andrea gaspari, andre kilian, rudolph austin, esmir sabic
good luck with the game take newcastle to 2nd place XD behind Liverpool

Antonio Barragan from Deportivo would be a good long term signing as right back.



Currently managing:
  1. Real Madrid CF (2007-08) Spain
  2. East Bengal (2009-10) India

Can't see nothing wrong with your team yet. The only bad game I saw was the Reading one.

Weird tactic though.

That tactic does look a little strange yet it looks so strong in the middle.



Current Game:
None until Fm09 comes out

Haha Yeah the tactic is a bit strange and I think it heavily relies on if your strikers score a lot and your defence is solid. For me the first one is yes the second one probably no. Its a bit like what Keegan did when he first game to Newcastle as manager. Score more goals than you concede!
My last game was NUFC 5 v.s 3 Birmingham(A)

Also i am very proud of this result lol.Probably Because I am a Football Manager noob and i have never done this but what the heck I might as well put it on.(Screenshot below)

Newcastle have perfectly good goal disallowed. Now Soulsby wants rid of Rennie.

Newcastle were held 1-1 by Southampton and will now have to play a replay at Southampton. I don't think Soulsby will trust his reserve side again.
