Newcastle’s problems
Alan Shearer, Newcastle legend and fan, has valued the winter market of his former club, the first after the arrival of petrodollars. And his balance could not be more positive, although he acknowledges, in an interview in the Daily Mail, that more additions are needed.
“It’s clear they need more defensively. You don’t have to be a football expert to come to that conclusion because of the way they’re conceding at the back. They have the second worst defense in the Premiership so you don’t need to be a rocket scientist. to determine where they need to strengthen,” said the former England international.
“They are in this situation due to the lack of investment in the last 14 years. Now Newcastle are in a very lucky position in terms of what they have financially, and the players they have signed, but they need more,” he concluded.
