Well, Sissoko and Yanga-Mbiwa were damn fine buys at those prices. Cabaye and Ben Arfa were great moves to begin with as well, and I really like the way Marveaux plays. If you replace Pardew with someone like Laurent Blanc, maybe things would be different.

That has been the one thing. I mean if you're going to stack your team with frenchmen then why wouldn't you just hire one to manage them too? Still might happen it's no lock Pardew is back.

The problem is Newcastle buys just to buy - with no logical thought process behind it. The squad is a tactical disaster. I've watched them several times this year. I can honestly say they have the worst defensive unit I have watched in a long time. No tactical or positional awareness. No clue how to hold a line. Just flat out embarrassing.
I'm not saying the players they bought are bad by any stretch, but volume-buying players just because they are on the clearance rack is a terrible transfer policy.
