relied on Saint-Maximin 's 90th-minute goal, Newcastle United drew with Wolves with a score of 1-1, and still maintained its unbeaten status in the new season. Legendary striker Collymore wrote an article stating that Newcastle's low-key signings are expected to reap huge rewards. The following is the full text translation.
I'm surprised that they haven't done anything "Hollywood" since Saudi bought Newcastle United.
I fully expected them to throw the money around like confetti, and I expected Ms. Staveley to change her scarf every few minutes.
However, what I saw was not all that, but a club that looked in order, which made me take my hat off to Newcastle's new owners. This is a club that has been waiting for years to inject cash and build real forward momentum.
The way the new owners work with the fan groups seems to be by the book, I saw a lot of flags inside St James' Park as if they want the stadium to look like the best Santiago Bernabeu.
When building the team, they almost all signed players who were very hard-working and rated around 7 or 8 points.
They can give a talented player like Saint-Maximin a platform for 9 or 10 points on any given day if they want to, and against Manchester City they did just that.
After the performance against Manchester City, some fans are dreaming of playing in Europe, and may even be able to do so this season.
I'm not sure, but I do agree with Shearer that they will be the best team outside of the top six.
The real trouble for Newcastle is that you are looking at teams that are almost locked in the top four, then Arsenal , Manchester United and I still think Leicester City or Wolves will get it seventh place.
Therefore, if the final ranking is eighth, it will be a very good result for Eddie Howe and his players. If they finish fifth, Eddie Howe deserves the same applause and cheers he received when he coached Bournemouth.
It will be interesting to see how Newcastle react to the signing of Isaac for £58m.
Paying such a transfer fee feels like Newcastle's first real investment in the future. However, such signings may be exciting, but problems of one kind or another may arise.
At Nottingham Forest , I can see that the players who helped the team reach the Premier League would be frustrated by the high salaries received by new players such as Lingard and White. But, at Newcastle, I suspect it will be the exact opposite, with the lads saying, "We'd better stop grinding, otherwise we won't be here when the time comes for the team to be a top team."
A lot of people are Think Newcastle will be squandering money but there seems to be a feeling that they are thinking, " let's try to do this in an elegant way and we have Having waited a long time, so we can do the right thing, be patient, and wait longer if we have to "
The problem facing the club in the next few years is how to convince the top. Players join instead of going to London, Manchester, Liverpool, Paris, Barcelona or Madrid.
Top players not only want to join a great team and get huge annual salaries, they also want to provide a good living environment for their families, and Newcastle must make the city lively again and convince top players that it is worth going there. place.
For players, being able to play in the Champions League is also a huge temptation. If they continue to do the right things, there is no reason why Newcastle will not become the main force in the European war in the next 6 or 7 years.
