You didn't get me. What I mean is that at their level they have spent big.

While I will admit that their coach is the main reason (which I have already mentioned) but for them to pay roughly €70m for one player for a midtable team is big. Also they didn't sell last season unlike most teams at their level. So in essence they have strengthened their first eleven with like 4-5 quality players over the past two seasons. That's big.

Pope, Botman, Trippier, Willock, Joelington, Target, Guimares, and Isak . Eight players to strengthen their first team alone.

sod09:
All these are over 2 to 3 years transfer
I am telling you Everton blew almost 300m on a single window
Aston villa also did the same that year they got buendia and wanted to buy our ESR just because they sold grealish
Then for wolves all those Portuguese players them they buy na around 40m each and the least they buy in a window is about 4
That's 160 imagine that for 2 windows

Newcastle no spend abeg

youngZee23:
They just like to control the world even when it's not possible just like women want to men

GloriousGbola:
I know that is the issue. You think you are ready to have all your rights trampled on the lgbtq get stomped on.

Ironically this is the same game with health insurance. People are happy to be denied health insurance as long as it is denied to 'moochers'

I only used child porn as one example. If you have regular porn, sects, bet 9ja app, anti Islam messages, peculiar twitter takes, peculiar face book posts, you can also get into trouble

GloriousGbola:
Google immigration check phone and see for yourself

As a matter of policy immigration can check your device at the border . Anything on IT. So if you know what's good for you, you wipe your phone or enter the country with a burner phone. Because so many things you may be casual about can get you in serious trouble. One lady in my office was sharing some child porn vid in the name of awareness. She continued arguing with me until one day a friend of hers in obodo oyibo got into trouble for possessing child porn on her phone.


You need evidence? Izzou has already posted an article and you are still in denial?

Qatar is an Islamic theocracy

That means a country where sharia, the same sharia Nigerians love to complain about on SM - IS THE LAW.

Lush100:
.

Bruno is 35 rising to 50M (with 3rd position they are payiy 50M. That was what scared us the priciy.
Tripper is 12m rising to 20M.
Bros, it was mostly from.january .
Nick pope 10m
Target 12M
Dan Burn 13M.
Again.
Most players they bought are 30 yes old and over except Bruno 24, botman 23 and isak 23.

GloriousGbola:
This is not about short gain. This is about the future. Hydrocarbons are on their way out. Everyone is transitioning. Dubai has already defined the future source of income - tourism. You cannot invest in tourism, which requires wealthy foreigners and still enforce theocracy.


This is how projects fail. A project is intended to generate value to the owner. But in this case the owner is already spoiling his own project.

GloriousGbola:
One - on the regular your phone is checked when you enter most countries. Which is why you are advised to wipe your phone completely

Two - these people coming are wealthy tourists not migrant workers. The migrants are mostly from poorer countries, they want money and they will keep their heads down. Tourists are from wealthy liberal countries, you want their money

Coming to watch football is a holiday, not a job. In their arrogance, the Qataris have forgotten that not everyone is desperate to come to Qatar surrender your rights, your passport and take shit while being paid in dollars

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Short gain, my left nyash.

Blatter already said he regretted allowing Qatar win the bid.

Hopefully, we won't get to see an intolerant country host that event in the future.

Even Russia wey Putin dey share the air wey dem dey breathe, no do this one[/color]

youngZee23:
I know they won't even do that..if usa and co don't like it they should skip the world cup na..very simple

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Well, people are actually protesting to boycott the WC.

So, maybe your solution is being adopted[/color]

izzou:
[color=royalblue]So anybody that cannot tolerate the ban of alcohol, or the intolerance of Qatar in a WC for 28 days might be insane abi?
[/color]

Lush100:
New castle spent money oh.
Botman 35M
Bruno G 50M
Isak 60M
Wood 25M
Tripper 12M .
There are still other little one I do not remember but these one's I listed up there came in from last Jan transfer window.
Before then joelinton 40M.
Willock 30

youngZee23:
If they tolerate this then their home ppl should protest cos it will be injustice to them

izzou:
[color=royalblue]You are just dancing around the point, my oga

The event comes with people of different cultures attending it. People from the Western world who are more Liberal, attending it.

It is very intolerant to force people to adopt your religious rules in such an event. I find it funny that you are asking for tolerance from the visitors, not the hosts.

Well, a Bible believing Pastor can't even go with his Bible to watch WC. Qatar immigration will seize it, and Jo.dera thinks its okay[/color]

izzou:
[color=royalblue]If the USA hosted the next WC, and bans women from wearing hijab, who would you ask to be more tolerant?

Would you ask USA to be tolerant and allow Muslim women wear hijab?

Or would you ask Muslim women to be more tolerant and open their hair for 28 days?[/color]

sod09:
I was referring to isak only

sod09:
They will call FFP

Roland17:
I will not necessarily box Newcastle's success to their transfer activities, rather, I will credit E. Howe's coaching, especially changes in tactics and lineup. Yes he did bring in D. Burn/Botman/Guimares and they have been impressive especially on the defensive end of things but when you look at how discipline and patient Newcastle are, you will realize this is about coaching.

Their attacking/ midfield players in Almiron/ Willock/ Longstaff/ A now health C. Wilson/ Joelinton were here before Howe. E. Howe has balanced their attack now as they no longer predictable or have to depend on Saint Maximin for every attack. They are a very methodical team that are great aerially, break away and they take their chances.

I believe this is more about coaching.

sod09:
You guys are making reference to one player as heavily
What of Everton that bought Keane, richardlison, dacoure and sigurdsson for a combine of 200m
Btw in this present market 70m can't be considered heavy
Big money move I agree but heavily haba

sod09:
Exactly my point they never start we dan they shout heavy
Them never give mbappe blank cheque na

izzou:
[color=royalblue]The intolerance from Qatar is just too much, IMO.

You want to host an event involving the Western world, but it has to be on your own rules?

I am not a fan of all those banned items or activities, but i don't support the ban at all.

If you can't accept everybody's culture for 28 days, you have no business bidding for the hosting rights[/color]

mostob:
With regards to the status of their club... They spent heavily bro...
Isak, Bruno.... Willock sef follow..

popizaino:
What i meant was that were the coaches who your club signed to replace Unai Emery better than him?And no Potter didn't enjoy new manager bounce because he never did the unexpected, just won the games a team of our calibre should be winning . Tuchel on the other hand, has proven to me that he is not who we think he is,winning as an underdog and go missing when you are the favourite. Such manager justify why we sacked him couple with it horrible approach to football.

Spy360:
If Newcastle are not midtable then what are they, top 6? Do you even know what's meant by midtable?

When you take a look at net spend you know what I am talking about. They buy and not sell. Usually, for a club in their class in terms of performance in the last 5years that spending big. That's also why they are attractive. Players like Trippier, Guimares, Willock, Joelington etc moved there because they saw some prospects.

The second other point is that they have a good coach in Eddie Howe.

As for Nottingham Forest, they are just coming off lower leagues and will need to spend some more and still keep their best players to have a shot to higher positions.

Spy360:
The winner here is Arteta.

I am glad we took the risk with him. He has learned his ropes and we're lucky to have him.

I remember years ago when he wanted to join and some of us felt he was too inexperienced for a big club like Arsenal; my response was that we have to get him as I see him as the next big thing after Pep. Having trained at Barcelona, Everton under Moyes, under Wenger and as an assistant to Pep. Again, for Pep to have such confidence in him to make him his assistant you know he's got something.

Pep says he's a monster and I believe him.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Jo.dera, what do you say?

Alcohol has periods for sale. You can't just buy it anyhow. Also, it costs much more to purchase in hotels.

Bombblacks:
Bro you are just everywhere typing out of point. Stop projecting and highlighting your backwards Nigeria mentality . Your first paragraph is literally insane. I still don't understand what exactly is annoying you that people and countries are using the world cup global coverage to shine light on various issues wrong with Qatar which includes migrant workers awful work policies, women rights, minority group discrimination etc These are the issues everyone is trying to shed light on yet you are telling them to shut up and just kick a ball. If the LGB whatever are using this medium to call out Qatar for their laws and policies that discriminates against people in that category why exactly are you getting offended by it? Let me guess because it's against your religion as well.

Johnny4you:
That bloke is a waste of data

popizaino:
Never knew Unai Emery resigned willingly. That aside,Graham Potter didn't experience any new manager bounce,new manager bounce usually last longer,we were only excited we were being not bore to death with meaningless passes btw our CB when a long ball to our attacker would have been better off and make us more competitive. We can excuse Potter for doing worse than Tuchel because the former met this players here and never had a preseason session with the team. Tuchel had all the time in this world to change the fortune of this team but what did he give us ? A loss to leeds city,Southampton, Dinamo Zagreb. I just need Potter to be brave in upcoming matches and nothing more. Tuchel is a past tense,so shall it remain.

Bombblacks:
Where's the comedy in my post that's supposed to be funny? Did you tell the players to just kick football and not "stand with Ukraine" or tell the players to stop taking the knee during the black lives matter movement. Football has always been used pass political messages and create awareness on issues so stop showing your hypocrisy because its something you don't support. What do you mean by send missionaries and convert people? What exactly is annoying you about countries and people using the World Cup and all its media and news coverage to call out the human rights violations and laws in Qatar especially on migrant workers and women.
