The point is we now have a Squad from all over the world and I think that's a good thing. What about you? We now have athletes who are fit and run all day without losing their skills on the ball. Reminds me of the squad of 2006. Let the good times roll. As for Gerrard I think he will not be going to Newcastle. The new owners are looking at the whole football club and seeing what is required before making changes. This is a long term project. Might even be better to take a step back rather than throw money at a quick fix that can’t be maintained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudy T Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 1 hour ago, Fraggle said: True, but it did take City a couple of years to convince the bigger names to come play for them and stay near by. I think the area still plays a part, maybe not as much, but a big name player will want to look at what the city and county can offer (travel links, opulence, etc.) Manchester is going through a pretty large scale gentrification and Liverpool has had similar but maybe not as large scale. Neither really compares with London if you are looking for a certain lifestyle and easy transport links to the rest of the world. And their first big signing, Robinho, thought he’d signed for Man Utd😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley Bay you say. I got attacked in a pub in Whitley Bay on a Sunday lunchtime because I had the audacity to walk in with a black woman. Walking about the toon with her, I just waited for the monkey noises and verbal abuse that inevitably came, especially late at night. Things have improved in recent years of course, but not enough for me to accept its "each to their own". Anyway, I'm going to watch the Scotland game and have a booze. Enjoy your day.

As for Newcastle, Gerrard won't even be flickering their radar, they'll now be looking at the likes of a Pep, Klopp, Conte, Tuchel etc, Klopp would be a great fit there to be honest, he's a bonkers as the Geordies are and they would love him like the Liverpool fans do, I hope it doesn't happen though and pretty sure it won't as Klopp wants a tilt at being the Germany manager one day. Absolute nonsense to think Newcastle will be able to take Pep, Klopp or Tuchel away from their current clubs. Newcastle don’t have a single player that is good enough.

Savage talked about Edinburgh as a great asset when attracting players. Newcastle will have the opposite dilemma. Chelsea, Barca, inter, psg are after a player.... Newcastle isn't hitting the radar unless they overspend even more than they already will be planning to. The Chinese clubs attract players this way.

Do you know what’s crazy as well, I recently learned that the vast majority of Spanish teams squad is primarily from Spanish backgrounds and Spanish / Portuguese speaking countries like Spain, Portugal and South America. Similarly many German teams seem to have this pattern of having a lot of Central Europeans who speak Germanic style languages.
