The Saudis have just spent 25m on Chris Wood whose only scored 3 goals. The Saudi domination has begun. The market is going to become even more ridiculous

You can see the two opposing attitudes in football
You've got the billionaire & state run clubs that invest heavily mostly for political reasons and utilise their high level state organisation skills behind the scenes, then the neolib clubs like United who are characterised by enforced austerity and mismanagement, and whose owners extract shitloads of wealth whilst trying to negate flak and anger from fans
It's really hard to be successful with the latter approach, especially now the Saudis are on the scene paying 25m for 3 goals

Worth noting he is also 30 years old.
Its probably as much about taking a relegation rivals forward as much as it is for anything he brings to Newcastle.

We should be trying to rinse em for Martial, Lingard, Matic. We could even see if they'll give us our money back for the likes of Bissaka.

Compare that strong quick combative fit fast-thinking cunt to the plodding lampost dosser that is Matic
Haidara and CMs of his ilk are exactly what we need. Even just an average one will be an upgrade.
