Ketsbaia 0 Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Phillips became one of the countries top strikers while he was at Sunderland, rather than turning class elsewhere and opting to move there. Our problem hasn't been buying big name players, it's been buying the wrong big name players. We should've went for Anelka instead of Owen, anyone instead of Coloccini etc. When we've had a good manager such as SBR or Keegan they've managed to fuse buying big names with success, it's just we've had complete doylums doing the wheeling and dealing for the most part Newcastle is the only city which really stands a fighting chance of attracting big players who don't already have links to the region because it's more cosmopolitan and easier on the eye. Without wanting to sound too much like a snob while Sunderland does have it's attractions it's never going to set the pulse of someone on 70-80k a week racing. It speaks volumes that a lot of Sunderland players have/still do live in Newcastle. That's not to say Newcastle is the most amazingly attractuve city on earth, we have our fair share of players who have left because they didn't like it e.g. Jenas.
