The fixture was over, 3-1 away from home and the part-timers were there for the taking.So what better chance to shine? What better chance to put those wasted months behind him and show Europe that he really is a £10m player?
Well ... it didn't work out for the Spaniard, and in all honesty I cannot wait to see the back of him. He has no heart, no interest in Newcastle, no interest in his CAREER the way he played on Thursday!
The moment that will long live in the memory was when he was four yards from goal, the ball was delivered in, and he even pulled his foot out of the way and let the ball drift wide.
A shocking performance from a player who should never wear the black and white again.
