On behalf of Newcastle fans, thank you for your words, they show class & humility!! 🇮🇹👍🏻 We'll look after your Milan boy! What would you say his biggest 3 strengths are??
I think what Eddie howe has shown us in the past year and a bit is that he's been able to get things from players that they themselves didn't even know they could do. I'm not saying this will be the case now but I am interested to see what Eddie can bring out of tonali
Eddie is already the greatest British manager of his generation by a country mile and will one day will an all time world great. He will get pure magic from Tonali
@@robbrown6495 But he genuinely did with Joelinton and Almiron, and I still find it hard to believe that they got Kieran Trippier for just £12M. It looked at bargain at the time but now could be one of the best buys of the decade.
@@iankemp1131 You're right with Big Joe and Miggy (on and off) Trippier was a definite bargain, as was Burn, but bargains are one thing and transforming players another. There's no secret recipe. I've seen very little of Tonali, and what I have seen hasn't impressed. There's no secret recipe. I think we're shopping for bitcoin here. Prices are going through the roof and we're getting on board while we can, with a view to selling big. How many of this myriad of young players that we are buying will ever see first team football?
Great video!! Tonali adds DEPTH! Our schedule is about to be more packed than ever and now we essentially have 2 Bruno's, 2 Willocks, 2 Joelintons.2 Longstaffs....Depending how you look at it, he has the potential to fill any and all of their shoes at any given point. This is a PERFECT signing. He's only 23!!!!
Whoever is in charge of Newcastles transfers is superb! How have Man U spent 60 million on Mount and Spurs 40 Million on Maddison and Newcastle manage to go under the radar and get this lad for just over 50! Impressive business
Dan Ashworth, take a bow. We stole him from Brighton who have been pretty good over the years at finding bargains and turning them into huge players everyone wants to pay tens of millions for. And Dan Burn.
@@iankemp1131is bonny lad,is why a large number of fans despise us so much. Tripps, Bruno, Botman, Isak and others are genuine bargains. Existing deadwood like Joelinton, Murphy, Schar, Willock and Longstaff have massively improved by being "tuned". Gordon is gaining confidence from the U-21 England adventure plus young Lewis Miley will vastly improve, all the while saving us having to pay £8.8M a year in wages to a lazy lightweight like Maddison.
@@andrewphippsphillips1455 Well, as a neutral it's great to see Newcastle doing so well and giving the very loyal fans some happiness after years of heartbreak. Was really pleased you got to the Champions League. My home town is Portsmouth, so we too had years of frustration and it was great to have a few years of success with Harry Redknapp. Good luck for next season!
Excellent vid! I've watched highlight vids, I've heard Milan fans' disappointment, I've heard Sky Sports' Italian football correspondent say how good he is and what his strengths and weaknesses are, but I haven't heard anyone relate his abilities so well into what Newcastle need. Thank you.
One key attribute I don’t think you mentioned is his leadership abilities. We have a strong core of leaders peppered throughout the team/squad and he just adds to this.
Most of his career he's been a snot-nosed brat with a flair for drama, one of the major reasons he was being sold was because he wanted them to triple his wages and wasn't developing into the player they wanted. Leadership is a knock against him. As is his wastefulness with the ball and his love of dribbling and beating people with his feet when they wanted him to make a square pass and keep the build up going.
@@TeamCGS2005Eddie Howe has mentioned he does like having multiple strong leader personalities in a room. If you keep the leaders on the same page you can keep a locker room in real good order.
I'm really looking forward to seeing how it all works out, the extra depth he brings really is the biggest factor. Excellent phrase that he will allow us to change the question, something we really did struggle with last season.
Thanks for this excellent analysis. Totally agree mate. One more thing Tonali offers is added cover in case of injury. We struggled when Bruno was not 100% last season, Tonali offers the depth we so desperately need.
Yeah Tonali wasnt signed to be the next Pirlo, he was signed to be the first Tonali... the dude is going to be incredibly useful in so many positions and allow for depth at a time when Newcastle really just need depth, and a larger squad of similar players to what they have so they can get back to the champions league again year after year, and continue to build upon what they have. He's a really useful signing and I hope they bring in a left-back to take Dan Burn's spot and allow Dan Burn to be rotated in and out to provide depth at multiple positions. Newcastle want to be in the top 4 every year, Tonali is the kind of smart signing that gets you there.
Another thing not touched on is just the additinal depth we have now. How many points did we drop last season with spells where either Longstaff or Bruno were injured? Tonali can do both those roles and keep points ticking over when injuries and suspensions start building.
@@Cristobal_2012 Raphinha, Joao Felix, Chiesa, Diaby, Ferran Torres are a few names that spring to mind. Need to be mobile, hardworking & willing to track back, versatile enough to play on both the sides, can see final passes with assists along with finishing. It's gonna be expensive but don't think we got the money this summer.
Newcastle need squad depth if they want a cup run next season + they have Champions league. Sean Longstaff/Joe Willock will still have a big part to play in this Newcastle team next season
@@Jaay2o Willock and Longstaff looked different class last season. Unbelievable. Even Jacob Murphy (who was always a championship player at best) was in GOAT form
I'm loving the look of a Mid 3 of Tonali/Bruno/Joelinton. The crazy part is all three cost a combined total of £129 million with Bruno being the cheapest. Bruno £34 million Joelinton £40 million Tonali £55 million
Big Joe was kinda panic signing to be honest, it's like Mike Ashley wanted to prove or needed something to show, it was ridiculous amount that we paid for him despite him being bang average in Germany .. Thanks to Howe he got the best out of him
@@Cristobal_2012 It's more simple than that - we were about to hit the FFP ceiling, so we were as well to spend some money on a prospect on the chance he might come good and make a lot more money on the resale. I don't think new-look Newcastle will be looking to sell Big Joe on any time soon, however.
I'm buzzing that we've signed sandro. As you point out it's another great signing that eddie howe can work on improving. Exactly the business model we’ve adopted since the takeover. Great vid dude, thanks.
Massively impressive player and a perfect fit for Eddies system, i hope he settles in and have no doubt that he will. The vibe around the club is so exuberant and with the Toon squad being so happy to play with each other, I have no doubt Eddie and Ashworth will have studied this guys mental fortitude and whether he will be able to leave his beloved AC Milan and settle in with us. If he does well we are going to have a fantastic season (providing we get a LB first and foremost as we need to progress in that position matter how well BDB did last season, plus he can cover CB. then we need someone across the front. A RW , no offence to miggy and murphy i love them boys but we need some other option there , something different. Long season. Also need rb cover if ashby isnt ready and Krafth is not up to it, Another Cb To cover schar but like i say, if we get a RB then we have burn as cover, and even is Lascelles gets game he will try his heart out. Again ,we are ran so well that i do see a younger CB to come in to cover /understudy to Schar, the same way we signed Isak as it just made complete sense, and we operate like this, What an amazing time for us all. Dan Ashworth is amazing , a great acquisition
Im an AC Milan fan and Im sorry to say Newcastle did a great acquisition. Tonali is the most complete midfielder I saw when you consider defense and offense.
Great individual video analysis ... and one that doesn't just regurgitate the current pervasive misconstrued narrative of "he affords Bruno to move upfield" or "he replaces Longstaff" ... I can see why he ticks so many of Howe's boxes!
Dear Adam, Canny video as always👍 Once the gaffer works his magic on Toonali in pre-season, I fully expect the Toon to be winning more games next season because of Toonali👍👏🤩 Champions League 'ere we come😃😄😀😁😎✊ Regards,
The key point here was the mention of Jonjo Shelvey. We missed him whatever anyone says and more importantly, Bruno missed him. Shelvey allowed Bruno to play higher up if thing weren't working but he was shite at covering our back four. Tonali is the player to fix that.
I think the Pirlo comparison is because they both started at Brescia. Tonali, as you've shown, is not a deep-lying playmaker like Pirlo, nor a midfield hard man like Gattuso.
I would just like it on the record that the Tifo vid is excellent, and us diverging on a few observations doesn't mean I disagree with any of the points made. Tifo rules ✊ AC x
-> Already has high PnP. Only gonna improve in Newcastle. -> It's not like he can't make long passes. People coming to too many conclusions from his Milan footage. They should prolly have a look at his Brescia footage. -> "Oh but Tonali can't create chances". Klopp - " I don't need an extra playmaker cuz Gegenpressing is my ultimate playmaker." Tonali is basically Henderson(physical AND mental profile and he's ONLY 23 yrs old). He's gonna lead and organise Newcastle's press. He'll effectively create chances that way. -> Trippier won't have to take part in the build-up. He can just focus on the attacking side of things. -> When RCB and RB are out, Tonali can fill in. He's versatile af.... -> Tonali won't completely remove Bruno G's defensive burdens but my god will they drastically come down. Bruno will have an increased role in the attack as well. -> Most important point: He's only 23. He's programmable. By signing Tonali, Newcastle have added 10+ goals scored and -10 goals conceded. That's effectively 20 damn goals. And the best part is....I haven't even written about Tonali's passion yet. This fuckin guy is AS PERFECT AS IT GETS for St. James' Park. You can't teach that quality. Its an innate thing that some players have. St. James' Park will adopt this random Italian boy and treat him like their son. His homesickness will go away in a month. He's an AMAZING SIGNING. 70 MIL is perfect for this guy.
Now Newcastle should go ahead and get Diomande, Livramento and Martin Terrier. Their first XI will be set..... it'll be up there with City and Arsenal and Liverpool's first XI.
TONALI CHANT Tune of Dean Martin’s “That’s Amore” We took him, from Milan, put the black and white, stripes on, that’s Tonali When the ball, hits the net, they scream, with regret, that’s Tonali Ding, a ling, a ling, that’s what we’ll sing, when we’re championes We’ll give thanks, and drink pints, to the man, that came to Tyne, THAT’S TONALI
Insightful analysis. Spot on.Also worth mentioning his character and leadership abilities. Eddie H clearly values personal characteristics as much as pure technical abilities.
Chelsea have got themselves a shrewd manager now who can maximize what players bring to the team. And he has a pretty big palette to play with at Chelsea. I expect them to be up for it this year. Them, City and Arsenal again. Liverpool's new midfield will take time to bed in, Man U don't know what they're doing and as for Spurs, ex-Celtic managers generally don't fare well in the Prem. Villa will be the dark horses.
Love the Newcastle content. Excellent analysis as always with all of your videos. Keep them coming please. I’d like to know how you think Newcastle will do next year.
Thanks man, genuinely really nice to be able to talk about them and be excited rather than what we've been used to. I've got them down as 4th again in the magazine this month but, truthfully, I think just staying in the top 6 would be an enormous achievement for that. Going to be a tough year.
@@adamcleryFFT I agree, I think the adjustment to playing CL football this year will burden the team and make it really difficult to make top 4 again. It will be a tight race for CL football. Hopefully with a few more additions and Gordon hitting form then we may have an outside chance. Keep up the good work mate 👍🏼
Eddie Howe M/F will be the best in the EPL because each individual,player will be capable of being each of the requisite positional players when they need to be. Tonali will be no 6 then no 8 as Bruno was an 8 then a 6.
Funny how people liked us when we were shit, now we are competing everyone hates us 😂, great video and analysis, looking super forward to seeing tonali in action ⚫⚪⚫⚪
for me tonali feeds the 2 forwards and joe, we need 20 plus more goals this season to be up there with city, harvy barns could bring 10 , personally we need another 10 plus goal scorer , to come on late, hopefully ai has an injury free season , as we are yet to see what he can really do in a season
I've got faith in howe and what he does on the training fields to bring Tonali onto a new level in time. People forget, he's only 23, he's got loads of development time in him, he's going to play alongside powerful, quality midfielders, in joelinton, longstaff, willock, Bruno. Who all bring something different but what they all have is a high work rate. He's got great experience for his age, he's played in champions league knockout games, he's won titles, he's won player of the year in serie B. And he's a dedicated professional to his craft. His work rate along with howes ability to improve players and understand their tactical awareness should hopefully lead to a brilliant match. It's going to be an extremely tough season next season. Top 6 might even be extremely challenging with the likes of Liverpool, spurs, Chelsea all improving and will come much stronger after their blips. They've also all invested in quality players. So if newcastle can again compete for the top 4 that will probably be an even bigger achievement this season coming. hopefully at least 2 more first team signings through the door to support what we already have. A left back and a winger ideally as the biggest priorities. Another young CB to push behind Fab Schar would be perfect too. But we'll see what happens.
If he goes to a southern club then he will be great and they got a bargain. If he goes to Newcastle then Newcastle bought a dud and over played. It's the same old story.
I was watching a podcast that was calling Tonali a bad signing because he is not a Rodri/Casemiro type ball winning defensive number 6, my question is do Newcastle need that type of player and does every team need that type of player?
I think I'd prefer Tonali at set pieces then Tripps. I love Tripps, he's irreplaceable, bit since he got back from injury, his delivery has been right off. He still is the starting point for most goals and is essential to defence, but look at our corners scored last year, terrible. We either need him back on his game there or hand it over to sandro
This is probably the best analysis/video I’ve seen on Tonali and what he can bring to Newcastle. Excellent stuff!
Tifo irl did a great one too.
@@oitoitoi1came here to say this
@@oitoitoi1They did, but not as good as this one.

He will thrive with all the willing runners making space all around him. Milan are good but Italian football isn't known for its speed and dynamism.
Yes agreed, Jonjo could spray the ball around but wasnt good at being a strong tackling DM.
"From all good retailers...and the crap ones too" Beautiful 😂
Brilliant video, better Italian. Quality player too. Forza Sandro!
At an absolute minimum, they need the squad depth going forward. Injuries happen, and he could cover for any of the three if need be.

Yeah I think signing the right 'charachter' of player almost goes without saying currently (although I probably should have said it lol)
Bruno likes to get forward too, he has an eye for a pass too, so together they're a complete 6 and 8... which works out.
I think Tonali will enabled better link up with the right side. He seems to be really versatile from what I have heard so far.
You are right, he has the hard working mentality of Sean Longstaff but also quality to cross and provide final passes & crosses.
Tonali will adapt to the EPL given time. I am sure that he will be an excellent acquisition, combining defensive solidity with attacking flair.
Great explanation of the stats, it's the first thing I looked at and found it difficult to determine what makes him worth the money.
Well worth subscribing bro 👌👊
Outstanding insight, thanks
Mate. The likes of Chelsea can buy as many players as they want.
We sign clever.
Tonali is a game changer
Chelsea have got themselves a shrewd manager now who can maximize what players bring to the team. And he has a pretty big palette to play with at Chelsea. I expect them to be up for it this year. Them, City and Arsenal again. Liverpool's new midfield will take time to bed in, Man U don't know what they're doing and as for Spurs, ex-Celtic managers generally don't fare well in the Prem. Villa will be the dark horses.
FFP is messed up for any teams trying to challenge the established top 6. It's a very long, slow grow.
I cant wait to see him settled into the team and at his creative best. Eddie Howe is the real genius behind this squad. No argument.
This has been proven incredibly prescient.
Like Longy he has the ‘Secret Sauce!’
Brilliant analysis! HWTL!
Thank you that's a really detained analysis!
Bloody awesome summary, cant wait for kick off.
Would love to see Tonali and Tino levrimento play in the same team. coming soon.
Its a good video. I actually think Joelinton would be the best at 6. Tonali and Guimaraes playing the two 8s
Great video 👍👍👍
Great video
Love the Newcastle content. Excellent analysis as always with all of your videos. Keep them coming please. I’d like to know how you think Newcastle will do next year.
Thanks man, genuinely really nice to be able to talk about them and be excited rather than what we've been used to. I've got them down as 4th again in the magazine this month but, truthfully, I think just staying in the top 6 would be an enormous achievement for that. Going to be a tough year.
@@adamcleryFFT I agree, I think the adjustment to playing CL football this year will burden the team and make it really difficult to make top 4 again. It will be a tight race for CL football. Hopefully with a few more additions and Gordon hitting form then we may have an outside chance. Keep up the good work mate 👍🏼
Eddie Howe M/F will be the best in the EPL because each individual,player will be capable of being each of the requisite positional players when they need to be. Tonali will be no 6 then no 8 as Bruno was an 8 then a 6.
Hope we give him the No.8 he’s gonna be classsss!! 🇮🇹⚫️⚪️
Joelinton-Tonali-Bruno
And we’re potentially signing Gonçalo ramos what a time to be a Geordie
I just we hope we get at least one more onboard before the Pre-season starts..
What a fantastic explanation of this entire transfer and very impressive analysis of everything Newcastle.
Great video mate
Funny how people liked us when we were shit, now we are competing everyone hates us 😂, great video and analysis, looking super forward to seeing tonali in action ⚫⚪⚫⚪
Trust Eddie, let him work! He will make Tonali a leyend!
for me tonali feeds the 2 forwards and joe, we need 20 plus more goals this season to be up there with city, harvy barns could bring 10 , personally we need another 10 plus goal scorer , to come on late, hopefully ai has an injury free season , as we are yet to see what he can really do in a season
It's still hurt, lucky for Newcastle, Tonali will give Newcastle titles ⚫🔴
TBF The Villa game was their THIRD away game on the bounce...they were mentally screwed. Home matches interspersed give them their buzz back...
The perfect replacement for Jonjo Shelvey 🔥
Replacement ? Eeh, a much better option if you ask me !
I've got faith in howe and what he does on the training fields to bring Tonali onto a new level in time.
People forget, he's only 23, he's got loads of development time in him, he's going to play alongside powerful, quality midfielders, in joelinton, longstaff, willock, Bruno. Who all bring something different but what they all have is a high work rate. He's got great experience for his age, he's played in champions league knockout games, he's won titles, he's won player of the year in serie B. And he's a dedicated professional to his craft. His work rate along with howes ability to improve players and understand their tactical awareness should hopefully lead to a brilliant match.
It's going to be an extremely tough season next season. Top 6 might even be extremely challenging with the likes of Liverpool, spurs, Chelsea all improving and will come much stronger after their blips. They've also all invested in quality players.
So if newcastle can again compete for the top 4 that will probably be an even bigger achievement this season coming.
hopefully at least 2 more first team signings through the door to support what we already have.
A left back and a winger ideally as the biggest priorities.
Another young CB to push behind Fab Schar would be perfect too. But we'll see what happens.
Great analysis
Good one!
If he goes to a southern club then he will be great and they got a bargain.
If he goes to Newcastle then Newcastle bought a dud and over played. It's the same old story.
I was watching a podcast that was calling Tonali a bad signing because he is not a Rodri/Casemiro type ball winning defensive number 6, my question is do Newcastle need that type of player and does every team need that type of player?
I think I'd prefer Tonali at set pieces then Tripps. I love Tripps, he's irreplaceable, bit since he got back from injury, his delivery has been right off. He still is the starting point for most goals and is essential to defence, but look at our corners scored last year, terrible. We either need him back on his game there or hand it over to sandro
You are spot on
well better value for money then Szoboszlai
People only call him pirlo because of the hair, he literally says he plays like gattuso
yeah the hair and brescia>milan career path, without that no one would have been making the comparison
If he can smash a Hollywood pass like Willock im thrilled.....
Brilliant analysis. If there’s one thing I’ve learned after this takeover, it’s to trust howe. He knows better then we do
