Newcastle United promoted back to the Premier League

7. Our home form isn't good enough and we still have most of the top teams to play away. -

How many chances can we keep giving Perez? Not much confidence in that team. -

We are too easy and predictable to play against at home against any team that will come and sit back, we really need to try new solutions otherwise the Sheff Wed result will happen quite regularly. Think we will struggle again tonight as we seem devious of any creativity. -
Rafa said the other day he wants proven prem quality, or words,to that affect, not sure Rhodes comes into that category, however at this level it would surely be a no brainer.
-
Wasn't Rafa quoted as saying he on,y wants proven pre ire ship quality this window, which would rule out both Higan and Wilson. Think we need to sort out the midfield first anyway, absolutely no creativity for whichever striker we want to sign.

Score early we will be fine, concede first we will probably lose. As for the team, ideally Diame, Ritchie, Perez, Dummett and Colback would all not start, however we have limited options so no idea how to set up considering we will not go with two up top. -
Ritchie is so poor, offers absolutely nothing.
-
We must have the worst record of the majority of teams in coming from behind. Our home form is a massive concern
-
Rafa needs to change something quickly, we are awful.
-
Awful so far, nothing at all going forward and poor at the back, Sheffield Wednesday looking dangerous.
-
Sheff wed on top.
-
Safe to assume we have someone lined up to immediately come in on the 1st January to replace him, considering Diame won't be here either?

He was at Liverpool longest (5 seasons) not convinced there is much truth in the 'always made questionable signings' assertion which seems to have become a common idea: http://lfcstats.co.uk/rafatransfers.html If anything that list backs up what I was saying, on paper most of those were questionable, but he turned them into a great team and a winning team.

Rafa is always a bit hit and miss in the transfer market in terms of top quality, he has always made questionable signings at most clubs, however what he does better than most is gets them to play as a team and signs players to fit his tactics and formation. He could go out and get a top class player, but that would not necessarily be beneficial to the types of teams he creates.

Arguably not one of our squad is proven/good enough for the premier league. Difference for us and other promoted clubs is we have a proven world class manager, so should we get promotion, I'm confident whatever squad we had would be enough with Rafa in charge. Lets just hope we get promotion first though.
