Why not? If he is fit, then he's fit. They are not rushing him back and he is well within the normally recovery time for an anterior cruciate ligament injury, maybe it even took him a bit longer than normal. It's more the fact that they'll play him for the last two games of the season, he'll be picked by boneheed McLaren and 15 minutes into his first game with England the replacement cruciate (they either use the end of your hamstring or a cut from the centre of the patella ligament) will either rupture or he'll get tackled from behind and break his ankle, damaging all the ligaments in it at the same time. Never you mind if he plays for England or not Convict-Boy. To quote steve. 3-1, 3-1, 3-1, 3-1!

Does that mean he can no longer be called Lazarus?

Eriksson heads list to replace Roeder at unsettled Newcastle
sammynb replied to Jimbo's topic in Newcastle Forum
We as supporters would have to be prepared for dour football if Sven was employed as the toon manager. All his success has been in leagues where defensive football is king. Always a 4-4-2 with a diamond shape mid-field. Also he is one of those managers that seems to rate Dyer, would he get the best out of him or always pick him because he is a favourite? The other thing is what sort of backroom staff would he be allowed to employ? Would he bring back the swedish connection or be made work with the current clowns? -
It's not that simple is it? We all know the chances of him injuring himself are greater if he is playing competitive games for his country than if he is walking down the stairs but the added fact that he won't be match fit if he does play in the Euro games increases it even further. Maybe it's that slight feeling of being ripped off. We all know Owen really only chose to join Newcastle so he would be first choice and be playing enough games to be selected for England and in the end he's played so little for us and still been able to maintain his national team selection.

Nay, Meenzer laughed also "Hey Santa Claus you fucking cunt! Where's me fucking Von Schweikert VR-9 SE?" Corrected for grammatical mistake. Wellsy is well confused now.

I know what they use, I've have a replacement myself. His cruciate ligament should cope with professional football now. Of course there is a risk to get injured. But that's not only down to him playing for England. He might as well get crocked up by a typical clumsy Moore tackle in training (if latter was fit for a change..). Wasn't aimed at you wolfy, just making sure a few of our lesser enlightened members weren't left out. And fuck of course it should be fine but you just know he'll play two games for us, a couple for Ingerland and then be crocked for another season. And what the fuck has moore got to do with it, they have more chance of falling over each other in their rush to the treatment room than in training.

Another classic episode was when they were interviewing Americans on the street about whether they should go the next step and bomb Iran. Now they were using a maps to ask the question, and instead of Iran actually being shown they had either Australia or England marked as Iran leading to the interviewee pointing at the country they merely read as Iran. The best response was a guy pointing at Iran/Australia screaming "we have to bomb the fuckers, we have to get in there now!" Then in a quieter voice going "it's a big fucker of a place isn't it?"

All strikers are required to make pre-emptive runs and to anticipate where the ball is going. As for Martins liking to receive the ball into feet then commit defenders, I haven't seen a great deal of that tbh. I've seen him receive the ball into feet and demonstrate the touch of a dyspractic rapist as it pings off him like a pinball, and the only time I've really seen him put defenders under much pressure is chasing down lost causes - his pace is used to catch up to defenders because of his lack of anticipation, when it should be used to show him a clean pair of heels. I think you've basically described how you'd like Martins to be. The reality is quite a bit different. I don't doubt that gemma. Unlike the last 10 years, this season's coverage of the toon here has been sparse to say the least. And most of what I've see of Martins has been the goals he's scored in highlights packages. Highlights packages that feature him running at defenders and scoring goals. And I know that isn't enough to form an opinion of him but that is what can be seen in those 20 second clips of brilliance, not the 88 minutes of dross. By the way all strikers aren't required to make pre-emptive runs, well not in the toon hoy it up the field style chase after it like a dog. Look at Totti or Del Piero or Vieri, players that Martins has been playing against and probably admiring for his career prior to moving to Newcastle. Even Le Tisser had a career as a striker who didn't chase the ball like a dog down the park.

The chaser or cnnnn as they were formerly referred to are actually quite entertaining. As you can guess by the cnnnn tag they enjoy parodying the US style news coverage, so regardless of the fact they are 'stralian, they have an appeal to a broader audience that is sick of the US media/political skew on everything (they were actually born out of the Iraq war.)

Noelie, IMHO I think it is more to do with the tactics of the moron we have as manager than Martins. If you watch him, he likes to drop deep and receive the ball whereas our keeper and defence have a tendency to hoy it long at every opportunity. His skill is in running at players with the ball but there is little doubt with the continuing "give it a wack" mentality that Roeder expects him to run off the shoulder of the last man, chasing it down and HOPEFULLY scoring. We are still trying to play like we were 3 seasons ago. Compare him to Bellamy, both are short and quick but Bellamy loved to chase the ball down as it sailed over the top of the defenders, I remember someone once describing him as a whippet. Whereas Martins is like Lua Lua (but with more talent), he likes to receive the ball at his feet, run at defenders, beat them and then striking the ball, usually with such venom that the keeper is tested and because of this he is at a loss to the "work-rate" required. It's not in his nature to make that pre-emptive run just in case the defender makes a mistake, although after that opportunity with the blades keeper on Saturday he may think about it more. Mate at the moment it is like we own a Formula 1 car but we are trying to rally in it.

Not that you care but i think he sounds like the Elton John of Leeds, not a good thing. There is plenty there to work with but it just seems to be lacking imhbfuo.
