A substandard bag of meat and bones.
On his interview he said that Newcastle had first shown interest at the end of last season. It makes the decision to take him on tour with something obviously in the pipeline a little odd. Maybe SAF just wanted to see him closer up to make sure he was making the right decision to sell him.

Maybe wanted to put him in the shop window to force them to firm up their interest?

Good look to him at the Toon - he'll certainly get an opportunity up there and one he needs to take as they look to have a tough season ahead of them up there

From Brazil.
Should have started at a place like that in the first place. Blanc told SAF about his mental fortitude and with our sink or swim approach, I worried he might struggle.
