Milner left feeling Duff

Our new winger Damien Duff was given the number 11 shirt today at the expense of James Milner, who reverts back to his previous number 16. It remains to be seen if the club receive or accept any offers for Milner, but hopefully for the sake of squad depth he won't leave. In my opinion he really is a quality player and a star of the future on the right wing.

Roeder named the 20 man squad for the friendly against Norwich tomorrow, this morning. The squad is:

Harper, Krul, Carr, Cave, Ramage, Bramble, Moore, Taylor, Huntington, Pattison, Solano, Parker, Milner, Butt, Faye, N'Zogbia, Gate, O'Brien, Atkin, Finnigan.

The game is likely to be chance for the fringe, reserve and needy of fitness players to prove themselves ahead of the coming season and the challenging friendlies against PSV and Villareal. It will be interesting to see if our new number 3 goalkeeper makes an appearance and how he fairs out.
