Newcastle United once famously sold themselves as an ideal stepping stone club, and a route into the Premier League to prospective recruits.

Jack and Bobby are joined by Seb Stafford-Bloor of Tifo Football to talk about that concept being flipped on its head, as Newcastle look to recruit stepping stone players in this early stage of their development post-takeover.

Seb also runs through some of the sensible transfers that Newcastle might look to make, focussing on a variety of factors as well as their footballing ability. Seb describes some of the challenges associated with producing and releasing time-sensitive videos like that.

Finally, living in Germany, Seb gives us the lowdown on heavily linked Moussa Diaby of Bayer Leverkusen. What do Newcastle see in him, and would he be a good fit?

Interesting discussion looking from a different lens to the usual transfer tittle-tattle!
