Think Tiote is the only one i'd expect or be fearful of leaving, Man Utd are screaming for that kind of player, suprised its taken this long, guess thats testament to how Ashley is running the club latetly, he seems to have changed peoples opinions of him quite dramatically. But to be fair, Newcastle did most of it without Tiote last season! so no worries there. As for the old "were a big club, we should be winning stuff" atittude, i think that went after the relegation, and good riddence. Some might argue, its the best thing that couldve happened at the time. ( it certainly saved you Alan Shearer in management spell Im really looking forward to watching the Toon do the business in Europe this year, semi final...maybe even a final!! ( touch wood ).
