NEWCASTLE'S nightmare deepened today when Charles N'Zogbia was
added to their lengthy injury list.
The French midfielder, 20, is due to undergo tests after suffering
suspected medial ligament damage during the 1-0 defeat at Chelsea
last night.
N'Zogbia, who could be out for several weeks, is the 14th player to
join Newcastle's packed treatment room.
Boss Glenn Roeder again faces a selection dilemma when his side
face Watford in the Premiership at St James' Park on
Saturday.
Here we look the unlucky 13 who have already left Roeder with
sleepless nights.

to repair cartilage damage and the ruptured anterior cruciate
ligament he suffered during the World Cup.

cartilage but will not return until after Christmas.
