Bro naso life suppose be
Calling a spade a spade not shovel

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.

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.

sod09:
They are not mid table
They were never mid table
Btw 120m isn't big spending for so called mid table
Forest spend over 100m this season that's over spending for a relegation club

Top 6 clubs spend over 250m each


You said over 3 years what is the price tag Wilson how much
Woods how much
Willock how much
Pope how much
These 4 no pass 100m

Spy360:
They got a good coach and bought some quality players with heavy spending and salaries. However I don't believe that model will last beyond a couple of years.

They are quite formidable.

Their weakness this season may be their bench. If for any reason the lose two or three key players, they are done.

mostob:
Forest signed about 20 players na...
Newcastle was even a bottom table team before. They did spend heavily bro

Jodera:
I don't agree they spent heavily at all. In fact, they've not even start spending. With respect to their Arab money owner and EPL standard, wetin dey spend no reach for person to include "heavily" at all

The difference maker there is their coach (Howe) cos in terms of spending, there are some clubs that have spent more than them yet no show

sod09:
How did they spend heavily

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

mostob:
how many midtable team in EPL can cough out 70m on a single player? Bruno was around 40M or so. They even bought Willock at 25M.
Normally, that may not be heavy as far as a big team is concerned. But Newcastle?? That's heavy spending abeg.

Jodera:
EPL get money die bro. Midtable teams dey spend crazily like Madrid and other top teams in other leagues. Aside Isak whom we all know is a star and was attracted with 70m, how much was Bruno and willock? 40m and 25m pounds respectively shebi
Compare them with the price of Wolves players in Fabio Silva and Matheus Nunes. 35m and 42.2m pounds respectively. You didn't know because those two are not performing and wolves are floundering shey?
Let's don't even go Everton side wey we sef na beneficiary of 40m for iwobi. How much more others.

Newcastle never even start anything spending to be termed heavily. Mind you, they're EPL regulars (at least 3yrs in epl now), so money to spend dey

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

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

Jodera:
Lol, if dem deh suffix heavily to their spending, I wonder what dem go call dem when dem start to do like Man city under Mancini and guardiola

Jodera:
Even big money move, I no gree sef.
40m no be big money for any EPL teams who has been a regular for at least 2years. Make dem check midtable teams, na dem dey spend pass some top teams sef

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:
They will call FFP

sod09:
I was referring to isak only

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

Jodera:
lol.... Bruno is 35m. But aside Isak, the rest na small money.

Should I bring players from Wolves or Everton or Aston Villa and their prices?

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.

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
