Jamie Carragher thinks a lack of quality in the Newcastle squad is the reason they are languishing near the foot of the Premier League table. Rafael Benitezs side suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Leicester to leave them one point adrift of safety with nine games left to play.And Carragher thinks it is Newcastles goal record that could cost them their top-flight status. Jamie Carragher says Newcastles squad lacks quality I think a perception of Newcastle is that they have too much quality to be in this position so maybe its a bit of an attitude problem why they are here, but I dont think its just an attitude problem, Carragher said on Monday Night Football.I think theres a lack of quality. Their goal record shows there arent enough good players and thats why they are in this situation. Positive signs for Rafa? We examine Benitezs first game in charge of Newcastle They were in this situation last year, dont forget. There has been a lot of money spent since but again we didnt see that quality in front of goal. The goal record tells you everything.While Benitezs arrival at St James Park has given everyone involved with the club a lift, Carragher says it will be difficult for him to cure their problems going forward. Rafael Benitez lost his first game in charge at Newcastle Sometimes when a team has a problem you can try and fix it, but Newcastle have problems at both ends, Carragher added. They concede too many goals and dont score enough.Its easier for a manager, especially someone like Rafa whose forte is setting up a team, but theres lack of quality in attacking areas for Newcastle. Its something he cant change because you cant buy anyone.Despite the defeat to League leaders Leicester, Carragher could see some positives for Newcastle, claiming their defensive organisation reminded him of his time working with Benitez at Liverpool. Carragher said Newcastles defensive organisation reminded him of Liverpool under Benitez You could see what Rafa had worked on in his first two or three days, the former Liverpool defender said.It took me back to what we were doing at Liverpool. Very difficult to play through, very compact and very organised. It was difficult for Leicester. Also See: Okazaki sends Foxes five clear Benitez focused on positives Positive signs for Rafa?

In the second game of their day/night doubleheader at Minneapolis, three Blue Jays pitchers, Steve Delabar, Sergio Santos and J. The Chicago Bulls have made some big changes this summer as they try to beef up their roster and make a run at the Eastern Conference crown. While adding players like Pau Gasol and Nikola Mirotic, there was one thing they definitely didnt want to change: Kirk Hinrich. After coming to agreement with Hinrich earlier this summer, the Bulls officially announced the signing on Monday. Its a two-year deal that starts at $2.7 million next season and includes a player option for the second season, according to a person with knowledge of the contract. The person requested anonymity because the Bulls do not publicly comment on contract details. "Kirk has always been a big part of creating the professional culture we want day in, day out surrounding our club," Bulls GM Gar Forman said.dddddddddddd "He helps our team in so many ways and Kirk had other opportunities elsewhere, but we are very happy he chose to remain in a Bulls uniform." Hinrich has spent nine of his 11 seasons with the Bulls, a dependable veteran who can play solid defence in Tom Thibodeaus demanding system and fill in capably when starters go down. For a team that has seen star Derrick Rose miss most of the last two years with knee injuries, thats a valuable role to fill. Hinrich averaged 9.1 points and 3.9 assists in 73 games last season. The Bulls also signed second-round draft pick Cameron Bairstow, who was taken with the 49th overall pick. The 6-foot-9 Australian forward averaged 9.2 points and 4.8 rebounds in just under 20 minutes per game for New Mexico in college.
