Don’t forget that Lyon openly said we were a pleasure to deal with so this deal may suit all parties. We could structure it so that we pay over 5 seasons for example.
Newcastle obviously feel they need to get players in key areas and don't want to spend the rest of the budget on one area of less concern.
Served the club well people layed into him when he was passed his best and the level went up in the league. Overall he did well for Newcastle
100%. It's all fine whining on about Chris Wood's lack of goals from the few chances he's had, but we need more midfield creativity. Bruno can only make and finish so much on his own. But someone like Paqueta in the middle of the park instead of Shelvey or Longstaff and we'll see more chances every game.
