The biggest news of the Premier League has no doubt been the appointment of Kevin Keegan as the manager of Newcastle United. The fans would be hoping that Newcastle can return to there attacking style which they showed previously under Keegan. The news that Keegan will also be approaching Alan Shearer for a coaching rolewill sure please a lot of fans as many eye him as a natural successor to Keegan. Now it will be interesting see whether he will be able to turn the fortunes around of an underachieved club and whether the Newcastle board will show some patience with him.

The transfer window is open and there have been a few signings. Chelsea fans will sure be happy by the capture of Nicolas Anelka. They have also signed Serbian defender Branislav Ivanovic for around $9m. Liverpool have also signed defender Martin Skrkel. James Mcfadden has joined Alex Mcleish at Birmingham who are also closing in on the signing of Manchester City’s striker Samaras. Portsmouth have signed Lassana Diarra from Arsenal and the player has immediately claimed that he will leave the club if a big club comes for him. Now what type of attitude is that. The market is still open and i am expecting Keegan to bring some fresh faces in his side.

What do you think about the appointment of Keegan. Can he bring the lost glory back to Newcastle ?
