Newcastle had qualified for the Champions League the previous season. So they had ample opportunity to strengthen the squad by adding star players to their squad. Because star players will not only come to Newcastle to play in the Premier League, they will definitely want to perform in the Champions League. It is more honorable. But the Newcastle management did not try to bring any star players into the team. And their performance this season has been poor. Qualifying for the Champions League is almost impossible for them now. Now I don't think coach Eddie Howe will be able to add any first class star players to his squad.
Why not, do you agree that Newcastle has good potential to become one of the teams capable of competing in the Premier League in the future?
Yes, because they are capable of competing at the premier league. This is my reasons;
1. They have good and worthy players to compete with other players in their own club for example Alexandra lsak, Joelinton, and Almiron etc.
2. They are a worthy opponent to other clubs because of their good and quality players, so they have the potentials of competing at the premier league stage.
3. They are rich, they can afford the money to buy better and quality players to add to the rest to compete at the premier league stage. some these are some facts that will show you that Newcastle is able to compete at the premier league stage.
To be honest, Newcastle are doing pretty well considering their injury list is quite big. But the players are coming back right now and they can do good in the future. I have seen a video of Trippier complaining about the injury and all that. I mean check the injury list out, it is quite big. Some of their key players were injured. Target, Barnes, and them. Callum Wilson was injured as well. I believe Newcastle would have done better if it were not for the injury list. But at the same time, they haven't spent much on the Transfer market yet like a rich club would. I think slowly they will turn into a premier league giant.
