In landing the £33.5million deal to bring the Brazil international to St James' Park, the Magpies can rightly celebrate signing one of the top 20 defensive midfielders in the world. The involvement of super agent Joorabchian makes Bruno's move to Newcastle even more of a shock to Arsenal. But Newcastle fans will now be the ones singing Bruno's name loudly when Arsenal visit St James' Park for the final game of the season in May. For now, he has thinking time before the big clash on February 8 against Everton at St James' Park but his starting line-up could contain up to five January signings. Despite being in the thick of a relegation battle, these should be considered exciting times to be a Newcastle fan again.
