Rafael Benitez has transformed Newcastle into entertainers, claims talkSPORT host Adrian Durham

However, St James Park has been transformed into a theatre in recent weeks, witnessing five consecutive home league victories with 12 goals in the process.And much of that has been down to club-record signing Almiron, who has immediately formed a rapport with fellow forwards Salomon Rondon and Ayoze Perez.According to Durham, these are exciting times for Newcastle. He said: The criticism for his negativity has been a fair criticism.Celebrating losing games 1-0 because it means the goal difference hasnt been hammered Im not into that. This is the Premier League, you should be giving it a go.However, Im looking at Newcastle now, that trio Almiron, Perez, Rondon and theyre going to be entertaining.Those three have a link up that everybodys going to love. So Im not saying its the football that [former manager Kevin] Keegan was playing first time he was there because that was sensational.Theyre just becoming more attractive and easy on the eye.Benitez spotted a player – he wanted Almiron and theyve gone and got him. They broke the record.
