Obertan Out For A Month?

Last updated : 03 November 2011 By Footy Mad - Editor

The former Manchester United winger has been ruled out of Saturday’s clash with Everton with an infection in his toe.

Obertan’s fellow countryman Sylvain Marveaux is the prime candidate to replace him, while Danny Guthrie and Dan Gosling are more than capable of playing on the right-hand side of midfield.
 
Alan Pardew: “Gabby is a really good player for Newcastle to have and I think he’s done fabulous for us so far and his presence has been part of an unbeaten start to the season. I am really, really happy with him.
 
“On occasions you want to see him open his legs a bit more. But he has to get that fine line between when to attack and when to keep the ball.
 
“Gabby is so quick sometimes it’s easy to expect him to be perfect in everything he does.
 
“He is still learning because he’d only played 14 or 15 games when he came to us from Manchester United.”

"Magpies In Europe" is available NOW! It features match reports and individual features from Toon fans on the 60 'away' trips Newcastle have made in Europe. Sports Journalist Richie Everson: "At last a book that the fabulous Newcastle United fans can relate to. It's informative, all the facts and figures are there, plus the 120 match reports from all the fixtures ... but it is the articles by the supporters that amazed me. "I went to many of those games, and this is the only book I can honestly say 'hits the nail on the head'! "Yes we know the results and the scorers, but some of the facts in this book had me so wrapped up in it I couldn't put it down. "Was Benny Arentoft cup-tied when he played in the final? Big Wyn and his battle with John McGrath; McFaul scoring a penalty when the crowd had gone home; the trouble in Palermo; it is all amazing stuff. "I would honestly give this book 10 out of 10." The book is available NOW from THE BACK PAGE!
