I’m sorry I guess he didn’t inherit Kane, Eriksen, Dembele, Vertonghen, Lloris, Walker, Rose and Lamela.
Apologies - I thought Ali being the club was due to Pleat scouting him and with the transfer committee. Same with Dier, Son and Alderwield.
Newcastle don’t need to make any singings - all they need to do is bring him in and they will challenging for the league like Southampton were under him.
As I said good manager made to look far greater than his actual talent by the talent he inherited and quickly got found out when that talent started to decline.
