10 Questions NUFC Fans Must Ask John Carver During Meeting

2. What Does "Investment In The Squad" This Summer Actually Mean?

Both managing director Lee Charnley and head coach John Carver have promised there will be "investment in the squad" at Newcastle this summer - but the Magpies boss must be pressed as to what exactly this means. Does it mean the club are going to sell the likes of Daryl Janmaat, Moussa Sissoko and Tim Krul, then spend the money recouped from this? Or are they going to actually invest some of the £34 million cash reserves they have built up? Players such as Queens Park Rangers' Charlie Austin, Burnley's Danny Ings and Anderlecht's Aleksandar Mitrovic could all become available this summer and Toon supporters would love to see them arrive on Tyneside - so are these the sort of personnel Newcastle will be targeting?
