The way Jean Alain Boumsong was talking earlier today youâÂÂd think he had the pick of the biggest names in European football to choose from should he be given the opportunity to head for the exit door at St Jamesâ Park.
But as far as the majority of the Toon Army are concerned they wonâÂÂt give a hoot where he goes as long as he goes.

With Newcastle United yet to add another striker to their books this summer it has to be said the behaviour of ÃÂã9.5million striker Albert Luque lately has been extremely interesting.
The former Deportivo la Coruna and Real Mallorca man netted over 50 goals in Spainâ≢s La Liga but struggled badly to make an impact on Tyneside last term.

It may have been 3-0 when Damien Duff reluctantly made way for Albert Luque on Saturday against PSV Eindhoven.
But the Newcastle United new boy more than played his part on his debut at St Jamesâ Park.
