I can be United marathon man Feb 27 2007 By Luke Edwards, The Journal 　　James Milner has vowed to be Newcastle's marathon man as the youngster steels himself to smash through the 60-game barrier this season. (Milner定下目标，本赛季目标六十场 @o@ ！) 　　Milner was left out of the starting line-up in the 1-0 defeat at Wigan as manager Glenn Roeder finally gave the England Under-21 international the opportunity to rest an ankle injury which has dogged him since the start of the year. 炮德在上一场比赛少有的把Milner列为替补，让他休息一下 原来本赛季始，Milner一直是带着脚踝伤上阵的 (我知道你很强壮，不过这样也不太好吧 = =") 　　But when the former Leeds United midfielder came on as a second-half substitute at the JJB Stadium, it was his 41st appearance of the season for his club. 　　With another six England Under-21 caps under his belt, the 21-year-old, who came within a few minutes of leaving Newcastle for Aston Villa in the summer, is already approaching the half century mark in a marathon campaign. 连同上一场对威根的比赛，Milner本季已代表新堡比赛41场了 加上代表英格兰 U21 的六场比赛，距离五十场不远矣。 　　However, while some would be keen for a rest, Milner has reassured Roeder that he has the mental and physical strength to keep on going until the end of the season. 　　"I'm not feeling tired and have never for one moment considered asking the gaffer for a rest," said Milner, who would have moved to Villa Park in August if Mark Viduka had agreed to leave Middlesbrough for Newcastle. 虽然炮德想Milner多休息，不过Milner说他不觉得累 他相信他的体能状态可以让他战到赛季结束。 (年青人就是血气方刚啊 XDDD) 至於那句转会事，我就不翻译罗 (一v一) 　　"You train every day and work hard. I've had a bit of a niggle since January but that's the only problem. It's a sore ankle and I just have to get through that but I'm fit enough and will keep going. 　　"There's no chance of me slackening or not giving everything. I'd love to break 60 games for the season, no problem. Football's my profession and you want to play week in, week out. It's mental more than anything because we are fit enough and conditioned to play twice a week. 　　"Obviously, it can be quite tough, some games you will feel more tired than others. If you are working hard, some of the heavy pitches will affect your legs but as I say, it's our profession and we will just get on with it." Milner就说了～～足球是他的profession 所以他只想为球队踢好每一场比赛，虽然某些比赛让他觉得很累 但他正为六十场的纪录而努力。所以他不会怠惰，努力练习，尽力比赛。 　　Much was made last season of Steven Gerrard's marathon campaign when Liverpool's captain began the domestic season with a Champions League qualifier against TNS Solutions in July and ended it in May with a man-of-the- match display in the FA Cup final victory over West Ham. The England midfielder played 59 games for club and country before heading off to the World Cup in Germany, but if Newcastle make it to the Uefa Cup final, Milner could have played an incredible 64 games. 上赛季的铁人纪录由红军之神Gerrard达成，赛季从七月欧冠分组赛至五月足总盃决赛止 一共上阵59场 不过新堡能在欧协盃一路晋级至决赛，Milner可以参加最多至64场 @___@！ 　　Milner added: "Steven Gerrard played around 60 games last year and, if we go all the way in Europe, I'll get pretty close to that if you throw in my Under-21 appearances. 所以Milner也要做到！ 　　"I certainly couldn't have envisaged that at the start of the season. But I just want to play football and thankfully I've been given that opportunity here. I just want to prove myself and prove I should be in this team week in, week out." 下面是谈到下礼拜的对手Alkmaar，欧协盃路上的第一个难关！ 　　Despite Milner's ambitious appearance target, he knows the Magpies face a monumental challenge to make it to the Uefa Cup final in Glasgow in May. 　　United face dangerous Dutch outfit AZ Alkmaar in the last 16 and, if they pass that test, the likes of Seville, Tottenham, Werder Bremen and Benfica could await them in the quarter-finals. But Milner remains confident that a campaign which began in mid-July can end in the ultimate glory 10 months later. 　　He said: "This club has had to come through the hard way in Europe, the Intertoto Cup, but this club needs to be in Europe and now we have to prove what a big club it is by hopefully winning some silverware. 欧协盃之路从托托盃开始一路走到现在 James相信球队能一路走到决赛，并取得冠军 来证明新堡作为大球会该有实力－－一个冠军奖盃 　　"We know Alkmaar are a quality team just like the others who remain in the competition. You look down the list and they are all good teams. We'd have preferred to be at home second in the next round but hopefully we can get a good solid first leg result and keep a clean sheet over there." Milner认为首回合新堡先主场比较有利 先在主场取胜，然後次回合力保不失球！ -- 有看有推："Milner要达标啊！" --
