But Newcastle United's fans have already made the Turk a hero after his winner against the Mackems ... and many feel there are more happy days to come from the little midfielder.

Scott Parker has become Graeme Souness's midfield anchor man, and United have finally found a player capable of filling the role vacated by Gary Speed. Many have been tried, but finally Parker is the sort of class we lost when Speed moved to Bolton. But Emre is the one catching the eye at the moment.

Parker: "It's brilliant playing with Emre. We've picked up a really good partnership – we're on the same wavelength. I think he understands my game, and I understand his. I think we compliment each well. He likes getting forward, and I can do the horrible stuff and give him the ball."
