Shearer Urges Patience With Amorim, Stresses Need For Key Signings And Europa League Success
“For them to go forwards in terms of recruitment, everything relies on winning the Europa League and getting back in the Champions League.
“We know Ruben Amorim has got a huge job on his hands, it’s going to take a lot of time and a lot of money to fix that football club. They need to stick with him. They’ve made their decision.
“He needs two or three transfer windows because they’re in desperate need of a centre forward, they’re in desperate need of a goalkeeper, they’re in desperate need of some legs in midfield.
