It's a shame though, you'd think the Champions League would be a pretty big deal to want to play in.
How comes Newcastle seem so darn good at picking up players too good for them that are money-grabbing mercenaries - why can't we do this! :lol:
Because currently their level is pretty low, but they have the money and turn over of a club hgher than their current status. So the can easily find a player perceived to good for them who is not on the radar of bigger clubs and lure him in with a wage packet that dwarf's what he currently makes.
And the reason we can't is because we do not spend crazy money and our position is fairly high, so in order for us to entice players too good for us with money alone we would have to be splashing Man City type cash around.
