It was from reports this morning who claimed that Kevin Keegan was ready take Thierry Henry back to England.

“It’s fantastic isn’t it. I have had lunch with him – I have had fantastic lunches this week at the training ground. We have had [Luka] Modric there with Thierry Henry, Deco has been in for a meal…” Keegan said. “Unfortunately, that’s fantasy football. Back to reality…”

More in the article, Keegan said he has submitted a list of summer transfer targets, but especially about Henry, It was something that if he went to a talk-in and a 10-year-old kid asked him if he could fetch one player to Newcastle United, who would that be?

Keegan said, he will give the answer it was Thierry Henry because he is the best player the Premier League has ever had. And KK said, the minutes later all the news in the internet and fans site will posting the article as we are now signing Thierry Henry.

I have made one mistake before when I was receiving a text from a friend of mine who said he’s listen to a news from Star Sports mentioning we have signed Deco from Barcelona. My fault at didn’t do the check and re-check first, but I quickly write about it here. That post is one of my most viewed article of all time. More than 1,000 views in couple of days…

So, when couple of days ago, many internet news reporting about the “Croatian Genius” Luka Modric is already come to the North East and talk about his move from Dinamo Zagred to Newcastle, I just wait and digging more informations about that.

Still from the Times article, Keegan said: “If you are looking at a young midfield player who has got a fantastic future ahead of him, Modric is one of them. But then every other club in the league, from Arsenal and Manchester United, would like Modric.”

True, I was thinking the same that Modric would be a fantastic signing for Toon next season, but maybe we will have to offering him something that the other premier league giants can give it to him. We may cannot offer the European league next season, also we can not give a promise that United will definetely go to Europe again in the summer next year.

But, it’s interesting to read the news from Sky Sports (oh…I hope they’re telling the truth this time, not that Deco stuff again) that Croatia manager Slaven Bilic has backed Newcastle United in their reported interest in Dinamo Zagreb star Luka Modric. Bilic has tipped The Magpies to land the sought-after schemer, insisting the St James’ Park club would suit the Croatia international.

At the moment, the only news that I can take it as closer to the reality was coming from Times Online.

Fresh from a series of meetings with Mike Ashley, the Newcastle owner, and chairman Chris Mort, Keegan revealed that he has targeted three or four top-class players he believes can take the club to the next level. The process of attracting those targets will now be left to Dennis Wise, Tony Jimenez and Jeff Vetere, the club’s technical co-ordinator.

“That’s it now. If someone asks me how we are getting on with our targets, I can honestly say, ‘I don’t know’ because I am not party to that. But I will know the minute they are complete or have failed, I guess – hopefully complete.” Keegan said.

Lads and Lasses, keep your fingers crossed and let’s hope Dennis and co will coming back to Keegan with wonderful news, at the moment all I can say is wait and see.

Meanwhile, Michael Owen is expecting his third child. Owen and his childhood sweetheart are said to be delighted at the prospect of their new arrival in the autumn. Louise (Owen’s wife) showed off her neat baby bump in a fabulous designer dress when attending Michael England team-mates John Terry and Steven Gerrard.

Other news is coming from Evening Chronicle’s columnist Lee Ryder, who said that the Carling Cup as Newcastle United’s most realistic chance of silverware for Sam Allardyce in his first season in charge. Later on the report, previous Toon managers have often taking the League Cup too lightly that resulting in some desperately disappointing exits in recent years, but Big Sam is keen to change that.

Allardyce revealed his plan for silverware at Newcastle and put club the priority this season in the Carling and FA Cup as well as finishing as high as we can in the Premiership. We have no distractions of Europe this year, so it means we can go all guns blazing in the Carling and FA Cups.

More from Lee Ryder, one of the past Newcastle deadly striking force in McGhee-Quinn, Mark McGhee, today declared that our attacking partnership of Mark Viduka and Michael Owen will spread fear throughout Premiership defenders.

Former St James’ Park favourite starred in one of the most goal-laden partnerships in the Magpie history when he combined with Micky Quinn in the early 1990s. Since then United fans have enjoyed partnerships from Kelly and Peacock, Cole and Beardsley and the latest one in Shearer and Ferdinand, but have been recently starved of two regular goal-scoring predators in the side at the same time.

More to add, McGhee sees the similarities between himself and Viduka, and has welcomed him as Toon player, he also believing that Viduka will combine well with Michael Owen.
