Nwcastle dont make many chances and dont put them away, as for Brighton they have looked really good in the last few matches and make far more chances so hopefully one or two per game get stuck away and we can welcome the Mags to our division next season !

Personally wouldn't want to play them in the Championship unless there is serious investment in the squad

Know what you mean but that would mean i want them to stay up, which means winning games and it cant be done. I want them to crumble and smash their town up whilst sobbing like fuck under relegation. Then hopefully get relegated again to see what it feels like.

They had the likes of Wjinaldum, Sissoko and Townsend, who brought in £80-90m alone. They also had a younger squad, and a lot of players who had a good reputation in Europe (Cabella, Thauvin etc.) who they knew they could offload easily for half decent money.

This time around, Saint Maximin would fetch a similar fee, but other than that, I'm not sure. They might get back what they paid for Almiron, and a half decent fee for Wilson, but they wouldn't have the breathing room they had last time. I don't see them walking the league.

most of their team would get decent moves, hayen, lascelles, even shelvey etc

The next few games will decide it imo.

Just had a look at their last 6 games of the season

Liverpool (H)
Arsenal (A)
Leicester (H)
City (A)
Sheff Utd (H)
Fulham (A)

If they don't win their next 2 against Villa and Brighton they're in serious trouble.

Think Fulham will stay up and its between Mags and Brighton. I think the Mags have a decent defence and will eek out a few wins to stay up.
 
I think they’re very much in trouble.

No Callum Wilson and Saint Maxim can’t keep fit.
 
I think Fulham will stay up - as they are a thousand miles better than Newcastle and Brighton - and it's a coin toss between the other 2. The winner of the Brighton-Newcastle match will be absolutely pivotal. Newcastle also have the worst GD of the 3, which may matter.

Shelvey is famously on £80k a week and is nearly 30. No one would take him 4 years ago, I'd be surprised if anyone would now.

Hayden and Lascelles would probably get moves, but they were key parts of their promotion team last time. Hayden's a decent enough player, but he's not going to fetch a big fee.

Probably SEB but searched "contract" and nothing new came up..

In their most recent published accounts, for the financial year ending June 2019, Newcastle had a player wage bill of £96.8 million. Since then they have signed Joelinton, Allan Saint-Maximin, Callum Wilson and Ryan Fraser.
