the guy's scored 40 goals in 75 caps for holland. the guy has unbelievable ability. his problems are all psychological. over the last 18 months he's been spitting his dummy out on a regular basis.

newcastle are taking a risk but if it comes off they've got some partnership upfront.

Crespo,
Veron,
Mutu,
Brolin ( going back a bit there )
Poborsky,
Postiga,
Wiltord,
and coutless others.....

He's living off a reputaion from 2-3 seasons ago. If he sorts himself out he'll be a great asset to them but I dont think he will. I also heard that it was only a years contract as well.

I thought he was out of contract at barca and it was a season long contract at Newcastle and not a loan deal. Correct me if i'm wrong.

hey thats just what I read on ESPNsoccernet.com only a few minutes ago.  They're normally pretty reliable but they could be wrong.  I can't make any statement beyond what I read or hear or see.

If they could afford his wages he'd of gone to Crystal Palace. He's just on a season long deal and them he'll move to another club, probably West Ham, they seem to sign sh*te, they afater Rebrov at the moment.
