Antoine Sibierski: "I had my best year as a footballer with Newcastle.
"I wanted to end my career at Newcastle, and they knew that.
"I was offered a contract in February for two years by Glenn Roeder, who was then sacked.
"I spent a great 10 months there, not just my best year as a footballer, but one of my best years as a man in my life.
"Newcastle have all of the tools they need to win this game, and I think they will.
"I went back in July. Andy Carroll, Stevie Harper and Shola (Ameobi) were there, and I knew Joey Barton very well from my time at Man City, as well as Kevin Nolan.
"I think they will finish mid-table this season."
