American-born Italian International...WTF man, WTF
Things just got a little brighter on Tyneside. Giuseppe Rossi has been loaned to Newcastle until January 1st 2007. Sir Alex Ferguson says that this move will give Rossi some "invaluable 1st team experience." This is just a stall move by Newcastle while trying to get Michael Owen healthy again. The Rossi-Martins tandem will be one of the fastest strike pairs in all of England, but they both have a lot to prove. Rossi is the main reason that Sir Fergie let Ruud Van Nistel-Joy go to Los Galacticos de Madrid. If you can put that much faith (30+ goals a seasons worth) in an unproven AMERICAN-italian, then he must be worth his weight in salt. This also gives Ferguson some time to see if Alan Smith can move back to striker. Glenn Roeder must have a very bright outlook on the first half of the season, and Rossi will see some European action in the UEFA cup; which doesn't disqualify him for playing for Man U in the Champions League upon his return because they are different competitions. So all in all I think that this is a great move for both clubs and both gaffers can be pleased with it.
P.S. Man U really need to pick up CARLITOS TEVEZ and sell Louis Saha, because Rossi will be ready upon his return from the Tynside

Sambo, when did you become a full-fledged Manchester United hearthrob? I knew you bled red but not like this. Fabulous writing by the way. Now if only we can get young James to chime in more often. . .
