Mark Viduka back!!!

By: j | November 26th, 2008

Yes its true, the Aussie hit-man might be a part of the squad that will face Middlesbrough at Riverside Stadium this Saturday. With the Magpie’s teetering in the dreaded final relegation spot the return of Mark Viduka will have an enormous impact. Joe Kinnear said of his possible return:

“He’s not far off it, I can tell you. Obviously he hasn’t had games but you might find that he’s on the bench on Saturday.”

“What we decided to do with Mark was to ask him to try and come back into training.”

“We didn’t want to hurry him up because we don’t want to risk him breaking down again but if he felt like he could come back into the sessions then we were happy for him to do that.

“It was a matter of bringing him back gradually and seeing what he could manage but he’s surprised us all.

“He’s got better and better as the days have gone on and some of the things he’s been doing have been excellent. We’ll see how he goes now but there is a chance of him being involved.”

“He’s a good personality and another one of the leaders that I’ve got in the squad.”

“He’s a terrific player to have back in and around the team.”

    Will be great to see Viduka back playing football. He’s been out so long I think people have sort of forgotten about him.

    You think so? The return of Owen and Viduka…I can’t wait and believe it or not, I’m optimistic. Now that is a shock.
