I'll play devils advocate a little.
If your West Ham, hes 2nd choice to Antonio. It's a big fee for 2nd choice, and we know Moyes watches the pennies.
Newcastle have been going for players who make a difference here and now. This will sound mad, but he probably doesn't start ahead of either Wood or Wilson, despite having the potential to be better than both. Give the statement they are trying to make, not sure they are going that heavily on a 19 year old. And if they were they would have done it.
Sides like Chelsea, with the new loan rules are going to be hit. Loads of players with not a lot to do with. It sounds odd, but for the likes of him, Gallacher and Gilmour to an extent time will be on our side.
Once the season starts, if they are not making match day squads, they are going to want to go.
