Rafa Benitez, NUFC and this stunning transfer record NUFC
As Rafa Benitez said himself back in summer 2016, first he would have to build a team to get out of the Championship AND then he would need to build a team to survive and then progress in the Premier League…The successful signings are reflected in the fact that Newcastle United bounced instantly back as champions of the second tier.
A bit like Sels and Lazaar, Muto just never really looked like he could adapt to the game in England, with the exception of that game at Old Trafford, when for over an hour, the likes of Muto and Kenedy ran Man U ragged and went 2-0 up, cheated out of 3-0 and almost certain victory when the most blatant of penalties was missed by the match officials .
Atsu, Lejeune and Fernandez all did a good job and played their part in the survival task but I wanted to concentrate on these other seven PL signings Rafa Benitez made. For a combined £11.5m, Rafa Benitez bought in Schar, Manquillo and Dubravka. All three currently in the Newcastle United squad and you have to say that both Schar and Dubravka have been incredible signings, Manquillo a very decent squad signing.
