"Too Confident" Defender Gets The Boot

... Newcastle United boss Glenn Roeder has sent him packing.

We all know the club is in desperate need of a quality left-back, but Bulut doesn't fit the bill.

For starters, after Roeder said he was only looking at youthful players, we wondered what made the 32-year-old Turkish defender that special to take a look at. But apparently it was fellow Turk Newcastle midfielder Emre who pointed Roeder in his direction.

Roeder told the Newcastle Evening Chronicle: "The lad has already gone back home and we will not be signing him."
