Newcastle United boss Kevin Keegan says he's a big fan of French winger Charles N'Zogbia.

"I like Charles very much - he's a player who never stops trying to do things," said Keegan. "He's a player the opposition don't want to play against as he challenges you, comes at you and tries to take you on.

"You've got to have players who can pass the ball well, but if you haven't got players who can go past an opponent and open teams you, then you've got a problem.

"I think we have got those players in N'Zogbia, Damien Duff and James Milner. Those three, and Emre when he's not suspended, can open things up."
