Big Andy would have to be close to the form (English) striker in England wouldn't he?? 4 goals in 3 games so far, & 19 goals last season with 15 of those coming after xmas.
Has Capello announced his squad yet for the 2 Euro qualifiers coming up??
Rooney is an automatic selection, but Carroll must be ahead of the likes of Heskey & Crouch - has youth on his side if competing for a long term spot with Zamora - with Defoe, Bent, Agbonlahor & Walcott probably in front of him if Capello doesn't want a big target man. I think Capello likes playing a big-little combo up front though, which puts our man right in the mix surely....

Newcastle return to league action when they play Blackpool this weekend. Chris Hughton's side will defend a 26 game unbeaten home record in league and cup matches, since Fulham's 1-0 victory at Gallowgate in May 2009.
Chris Hughton expects to have three new faces at his disposal for this game - Cheik Tiote (shirt number 24), Sol Campbell (5) and Hatem Ben Arfa (37).
Steven Taylor, Danny Simpson, Dan Gosling, Leon Best and Danny Guthrie all remain on the injured list.

| Well that went well, a 2-0 loss, god dammit, looks like another long season, where staying up will just be the target. |

| We dominated from start to finish and had it not been for the Blackpool goalkeeper (who was outstanding) we'd have atleast a point if not all three. However we should really be beating teams like Blackpool, and especially at home. Our next game is away to Everton. |

the second goal was just a counter because we went for broke and pushed everyone forward.
Their keeper had the game of his life, we could have had 3 or 4 goals I reckon. |

Shattered with that. Very unlucky..... dominated game, should have won (let alone drawn).
Absolutely correct - the keeper will never play that well again.
(did I hear correctly in the commentary that he has been selected to play for Scotland - despite being English with only a Scottish grandmother????)
Hard to question the Manager with what he has done.......
but....... for mine - he took too long to bring on a second striker. I'd much rather see Nolan dropping behind 2 up front rather than just 1 - especially at home against some of the lesser fancied teams such as Blackpool.

What a wonder strike from Ben Arfa !!!!!
Repaid the loan money already !!!!
We have a tremendous recent record against Everton - even in our relegation season we got a point at Goodison Park.

| A great 1-0 win at Goodison Park against Everton. Ben Arfa is a class player. |

| Newcastle score just before half time at Arsenal, 1-0 up at half time thanks to Carroll. |
