Newcastle head coach, Eddie Gau, spoke after the Champions League relegation in the 2012024/25 season. His words give BBC.

“A wonderful feeling is a great achievement for Newcastle. Naturally, when you lose, there is a frustration, but I think it is covered by the fact that in 38 matches we have earned the right to participate in the Champions League next season. This is an important moment for the club.

The experience we got two years ago in the Champions League will help us infinitely. We felt that they grew up during the competition, so I think the team became stronger. I think we are better prepared both physically and morally for future competitions. We have also experienced a severe crisis of injury last season, so we need to take lessons from this, and I hope that, if possible, we can succeed.

This is a transfer window, we need to be active, and I am sure that it will be. We have not recruited many players during the last three windows, and I think that in the end it can catch up with you at the end if you continue to change because the change is an important part of the team dynamics. I think we feel it and I think we potentially felt it last summer, which is why players have coped so well to bring success to the end. Yes, it will be a large transfer window for the club, “Gau said.

According to the results of 38 tours played in Newcastle APL took 5th place in the standings, taking 66 points in total.
