Newcastle host Middlesbrough tomorrow night as both teams battle the prospect of relegation. Being all square on points Newcastle are only ahead of Middlesbrough on goal difference and both teams are level on points with bottom of the table West Bromwich Albion. Newcastle have drawn just one game in their last six, whilst Middlesbrough have won one and drawn one, losing four of their last six.
Newcastle have failed to win in their last 10 league games but a win for Alan Shearer's side tomorrow would move them just outside the bottom three, whilst Middlesbrough travel in the knowledge that a defeat would be a club record of eleven successive league defeats away from home.
Shearer has several players unavailable tomorrow, including Joey Barton who was red carded against Liverpool and then suspended by Shearer. Jose Enrique continues to struggle with a hamstring injury and Alan Smith who has just returned from injury only has a 50% chance of playing after picking up a thigh problem last weekend.
Steven Taylor has resumed training this week after recovering from an ankle injury and could feature whilst Obafemi Martins will play a part despite requiring groin surgery at the end of the season.
Alan Shearer is likely to recall Michael Owen to the starting line-up and opt for a three man attack alongside Mark Viduka and Martins.
Gareth Southgate will be without Emanuel Pogatetz who has a knee injury and Chris Riggott who has an ankle problem, but he will welcome back Andrew Taylor who has recovered from a hip injury.

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
My personal belief is we need Gutierrez and lovenkrands on both wings. They can run at defenders and can create chances. Nicky Butt should also play. In Attack Owen, Viduka, Martins, and in defence, Bassong, Steven Taylor, Ryan taylor, and dare i say (coloccini: i really feel he has bee a weak point in our defense). At the 60th minute substitute Viduka for Carroll and Owen/Martin for a midfielder preferrably Guthrie (hopefully we have had several goals by then

433 with 2 wingers we would be destroyed in the middle of the park

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
Sure it could,but we have to press for goals and get them as soon as possible then settle in a rhythm of 442. I am pretty sure that if we put pressure on Middlesborough they will give in and let at least on in. then we can go into 442 counter attack.

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
442 the whole game boro need the win as much as we do but we have got a bit more quality than them its not like our other previous games where we have been away and playing better teams and needed to take a risk ok we need the points but we are at home and its up to boro to bring the game to us so all we need to do is keep the ball until the sustained pressure gets to them at the back and we get our goal once we have one they have to push forward catch them on the break and finish them off simple in theory !! howay the lads

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
No one in here said Butt is our best player. Christ, he makes too many mistakes with the ball. He cannot even pass the ball in a direct manner. Very painful to watch. I see the explanation that annie and senyabtoon have laid forward and i get it. Since they are coming to win they have to play us. But we need the win too. Now imagine we still had Milner and Nzogbia. Men we would have options. But all the same 442 with 2 wingers lovenkrands and Gutierrez, Guthrie and Butt. The game is too risky to bring Donninger in in my opinion. We go with experience

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
On the anniversary of the birth of the great Jackie Milburn however, Shearer will have to try and coax goals from a modern day strikeforce of Michael Owen (no goals in his last ten appearances) & Mark Viduka (none in thirteen).
That's because of another apparent injury setback, with Obafemi Martins understood to have made himself unavailable for selection due to ongoing groin problems.
Since scoring a goal - Newcastle - 279 minutes
Since scoring a goal - smoggies - 270 minutes
....from .com. 0-0 anyone??

im sick of hearing butt has been our best player
yeah, too right! if we had played donniger instead of butt there is no way we'd be sweating over the points needed to stay up with three games to go.
mainly because we'd already be down, but at least there would be no tension tonight

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
What's the difference between Shearer and Kinnear? Substitutes.
Did Kinnear ever have a substitute come on and score the equializer or a winner? Carroll off the bench for the equalizer at Stoke, Martins and Lovenkrandts for the winner and security goals against Borro.
Well deserved 3 points. Majority of possession, almost 70% pass success, 4 offside traps and 3 beautiful goals. 2 thanks to Martins going all out.

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
I want to see Guthrie in the centre next game, we should have Enrique back so push Duff to the left and whoever on the right then Martins and Viduka have to start together.
We played better than I've seen in a while, though we were lucky at times thanks to playing a poor Boro side.

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
No doubt Boro is poor, but we took advantage and did what we had to do.
Agree with Viduka as MOM. Slagged off on alot, perhaps deserving some, but when he's on and playing we are a much better attacking side. Makes up for our lack of controling/attacking midfield in many ways.
Surviving is back in our hands. Still want Hull to lose out, but if we take care of business, Shearer can begin taking care of us for next season!
HOWAY!

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
As long as Hull Loses out and we don't get hammered in the last two (which I don't expect to happen), we're safe, but I'd still like a win at Fulham to secure that feeling.
Not to mention, if we go into the Villa game 3 points ahead of Hull, we can play the young guns (Donniger, Carroll, Ranger, Vukcic) without worry.

I hope so Becksa
He can fu<k off back to his Cheshire mansion and feed his horses whilst waiting for his wife to come out and say "Michael........theres a Mr Capello on the phone for you"
(But Dont hold your breath Mickey, Walcott has your place I think)
I'd much rather have a lad like Andy Carroll.
Owens best days are behind him

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
At last, a trip to St James' and leaving with a smmile. I sit near to the away fans and the smoggies were sick as @#$%&. Would rather the north east teams stay up but im only interested in the toon.
Harper was shocking in the first half but pulled off a cracking save later on.
Taylor, butt and Jonas put a good shift in.
Guthrie made us tick a bit more than usual.
Viduka was immense and made such a difference up front. If he only had a better injury record.
Would like to see Jonas and Loven start together with Guth in the middle for Nolan.

Re: Match Preview/Thread/Stats: Newcastle v Middlesbrough
Nolan was a star for me he put in his best performance in a toon shirt so far and maybe its just taking time to adjust for him after all he has played most of his career for 1 club and the toon have not had the easiest of times since he arrived maybe he has turned a corner ? i agree about Guthrie but would rather Nolan than Butt any day.
