Viduka: I get on with Keegan

Newcastle striker Mark Viduka has insisted that he has not fallen out with his boss Kevin Keegan. There have been reports that Viduka may be looking for a summer transfer move, with Fiorentina listed among some of his potential suitors.

"It's funny when you hear stories like that - it is totally untrue," said the striker.

"The manager has been very positive towards me and I just want to play for him.

"I was very excited about the game [Newcastle against Birmingham] and I thought we played well. I felt we maybe deserved more from it.

"We knew we had to fight for the point. It was never going to be an easy game.

"In the second half when we came out a goal down, we showed a lot of character to come back, and we were unlucky not to have won it.

"All the boys are very positive. We didn't lie down and keel over and we have taken a lot of confidence from that and the way we played."
