Lucas Paqueta investigated by FA for alleged betting breaches

Newcastle have made some very shrewd acquisitions and this year won Arsenal Wenger's top 4 trophy! ;-)

Both Newcastle and Brighton did very well in cups as well as PL league last season, both unlucky against the rags. We probably would have had a trickier game against Brighton in the FA cup final? They have also both made an impressive start to this season.

They don't compete for and win trophies though do they? No.

Same with the other clubs people replied with.

RB Leipzig, Dortmund, Sevilla, Benfica, Inter Milan and Ajax.

Dortmund win fuck all. Benfica, Ajax and Inter all spend the most in their leagues and win domestic stuff.


Paqueta is not his surname. Apparently it's a nickname. It's the name of the island in Rio where he grew up. His real surname is de Lima.

This is pretty common in Brazil. Alex Pato = Alexandre Rodrigues da Silva from Pato Branco.

Next you’ll be telling us that Jô wasn’t his full name…
 
Comparing Newcastle's business to Brighton's is almost apples and oranges. Newcastle have been smart in the market, sure, but Brighton just made their club-record signing of 30M this summer. Newcastle have bought three players this summer alone that exceeded that.
Newcastle and Brighton are very different but both getting great value from their acquisitions.

Personally I think we are in danger of getting ripped off by West ham with Paqueta. He seems reasonable but not outstanding and way over priced, unless they compromise, say with a deal with Philips?

Remember when he was going to be the next best thing, from what I can remember he kept getting injured.
