BENITEZ FRUSTRATED WITH TRANSFERS
Rafael Benitez has expressed frustration over Newcastle's transfer activity, admitting he is unhappy that the club are "looking to just survive every year".
"I have a lot of confidence in this group of players but they (the club) know we have to do something if we want to improve the competition between players," he said.
"If you are asking me if it is ideal, I would say no, because the way that I like to work is doing things early. But we can't do that at the moment. It's just trying to improve as much as we can."
