10 signings were wiped out, unity is strength! The coach forced the director and manager to become the commander

When a team's senior management is empty, the transfer operation is collapsed, and the core position is in urgent need, can you imagine how messy they will be? Nowadays, Newcastle United, a new Premier League player and the richest club in football, has seen such a rare scene. The Magpies are currently experiencing such an unprecedented management crisis.

Two months ago, Newcastle's high-level structure was severely damaged: sports director Paul Mitchell and CEO Eals left one after another, and these two are the central nervous system of the club's transfer operation. These two senior executives and coach Eddie Howe have a deep difference in the concept of signing, and then they parted ways, leaving only the "bare commander" of the civilian coach Eddie Howe, who is the "bare commander". So far this summer window, only strengthened Ellanga and goalkeeper Ramsdale. The problem is that these two can be described as "scratch materials". Their strength is average in this wealthy family, but they sent away Lloyd Kelly and Longstaff. At present, there are only three "real" players left in the Magpies' midfield. Please understand such a chaotic scene.

Since the summer window opened, Newcastle has hit a wall in at least 10 signing negotiations. They were the first clubs to come into contact with Mbemo, Joao Pedro, Drap, Ekitic, Visa and others, but these goals were either intercepted by other giants or the negotiations collapsed. They were the strong support chosen by Eddie Hao, but the talks broke down and they happened almost every few days. Is Newcastle short of money? Is this club not ambitious? They are old clubs, team history legend captain Alan Shearer said: "They knew that the CEO was leaving, and they had not announced their successor until now; the sports director left a few months ago, and the long-term vacancy in this position is surprising." After Paul Mitchell and Eals left, Newcastle's transfer department was like a computer with a powered power outage: completely paralyzed. There is no director, no signing manager, no decision-making chain, everything has to be watched by Eddie Howe himself, but he has to lead the team to train and play in preseason games, so how can he have the energy to trade the transfers throughout the whole process? And professional matters must be left to professionals. Can coach Eddie Howe be a hexagonal warrior? In fact, the main reason is that Newcastle's senior management is not doing their job properly. The defense has not yet signed a player for six summer windows. It is rare at the level of a giant. In a high-intensity league like the Premier League, it is simply a suicide operation.

What makes fans even more collapsed is that the attention of Newcastle's senior executives does not seem to be on the team's competitiveness. Since defeating Liverpool and winning the British League Cup and promising to implement the so-called "2030 Plan", the management seems to have focused more on off-site affairs such as business development and brand marketing, while the planning at the competitive level has been infinitely marginalized. The team has no strength. Can these business operations be confident? Nowadays, the team's forward core Isaac is targeted by Sloak again, and rumors are flying everywhere. If you were Isaac, in your year of playing and your strength is excellent, would you choose to stay in the Magpies Legion or airborne Anfield?

The competitiveness of a team depends not only on the head coach's on-site command, but also on whether the senior management has clear planning and execution ability. There is no director, no manager, and the ten signings are wiped out - if this situation continues, the Magpies are likely to fall back from the Premier League's "dark horse" back to the quagmire of the middle. Eddie Howe may be able to maintain his tactics and passion for a period of time, but football is not something that can be won by force after all. What do you think?
