Yeah I agree. I don’t see the pull with Newcastle barring like telling players it’s a project which… they’re footballers not interns
.
like when i think big EPL team Man Utd, Liverpool would be the first two I know United haven’t won it in a while and Liverpool took like 30 odd years to win it again but those are probs the two biggest draws. Lots of players grew up with idols being Scholes or Gerrard or Ronaldo etc so they have that pull
Maybe Arsenal as players in their early twenties would remember the Invincibles and maybe they were Arsenal fans. I knew soooo many boys at school who loved Henry.
Maybe Chelsea or City because of recent success…
Top six fans can argue among themselves whose the best but all of those have a huge draw already… If someone offered idk Haaland 300k a week at Newcastle or 250k a week at Chelsea hes probs picking Chelsea
I can see them doing a signing of a well known name that’s slightly past their best in the January window.
I can see the other teams pushing FFP further now. Bet Newcastle are gutted they supported FFP when it was City splashing out.
Hopefully they can get that awful Sports Direct Logo off their stadium though- it’s grim
