What Keegan Did to Michael Owen and His Future with Toon

Posted by: Clarky · March 24, 2008 · Comment

For those who have been loudly decrying KK’s tactical acumen (not necessarily on here) it seems to me that modifying MO’s role has been something of a masterstroke.

As several of us had been suggesting, if we had continued playing a supine 4-4-2 with Owen and Smith up front, we were going in only one direction. The present formation has allowed KK to get both Viduka and Martins involved, and importantly has got…

I will not let anything else to ruin my celebration for the first Toon win under Keegan yesterday, not the cancellation of Indo Toon Army participation in a Futsal tournament, also the poor database system of Entrecard who robed more than 500 credits from my account since couple days ago.

No changes on either side with United kick-off the second-half. Michael Owen is in the mood to booked his name again on scoresheet today but was unlucky to see Barton’s delivery ball run away from him inside the area.

But again, it was Jimmy Bullard again trying to give a test to United’s goalkeeper, but this time it’s far from troubling Steve Harper as the ball flying high.

Fulham have early corner in the second-half…

Newcastle United vs Fulham FC, Viduka Give 1-0 Lead at Half Time

Relegation threat? It seems that all the lads finally realized their future is depends on how they perform and today they have shown good commitments in our second vital game of our battle series to avoid the drop zone.

In another full house St. James’s Park, Newcastle looking dangerous when attacking the visiting side. Keegan is once again pulling out the United striking force in Viduka, Martins and Owen in a 4-3-3 Cavaliers formation (that’s…
