Or, perhaps more to the point, can he get remotely sharp in double quick time?
Obviously the despicable Rodent *who obviously rates him VERY highly) squealed like a pig when we lashed out the £725,000 to bring him here (and why not?)
But I hope he isn't right about his history of getting match-fit when we're paying £125,000 a match for him
“Newcastle are up to their necks in it,” said Roeder today ahead of the trip to Sheffield United on Saturday. “He hasn't had any match practice and he hasn't played this year.
14 March 2008
“Even if there was any chance - and there is no chance - knowing Shola like I do he would probably take a month to get match fit, and that's too late.
“But I like him a lot. He would be unbelievable goal scorer in the Championship.”
When asked whether he might consider a move for the Nigerian forward at a later date, Roeder replied: “Who knows.
“But I just opened my hands there - I think he's a fantastic player, certainly rated much more highly by me than lots of other people who tend to like headless chickens running round the place who don't score.
“He scores goals.”

I posted on the day we signed him that even if he was fit he wasnt the striker we needed to fire us up, i know a lot of Newcastle fans and they dont rate him AT ALL.

He might reach full fitness in time for the play offs (if we don't make auto) but he doesn't strike me as being fully fit, having said that i thought he did better second half, showed one or two good touches and should have scored from close range, he looked much better playing up with fuller than with mama imo.

We got Ameobi,Brazil got Moore, Charlton got Lita, looking Lita has been the better signing so far.

He looked more comfortable once Fuller was on.... Don't see him as a Matchwinner though.....
Looked out of sorts Playing with Mama...

How come Ameobi, not match-fit andhadn't played in 2 months, started whilst Fuller, who hadn't played in 2 games, didn't.

denty........... Fck me that Avatar is soooo annoying fella ;D
Ameobi seems to like dirty shorts?
Maybe he should be given a bucket n spade instead of a ball coz he's on his Amearse more often than not.
Who knows, maybe one day he'll get that penalty he likes to play for?
Woeful for the investment in my opinion.
