Ruud Gullit claims that the reason he resigned from Newcastle was the problems in the dressing room. The problems are still at the St James' Park club, and the former Magpies' boss has wished Graeme Souness the best of luck.

Gullit said:

"When I was at Newcastle it was a more difficult period than at Chelsea. The reason I resigned from Newcastle is still happening at the moment.

"The reasons for leaving there meant it was the right thing to do. After four or five years it has not changed, the same things are happening which is unfortunate for the club.

"The interviews I have seen recently with Robson show me that nothing has changed. That is sad for the club. I wish Graeme Souness well."
