Eddie for a start needs to start playing his best players and playing people in there correct positions. The players look bored, disheartened and fed up
If he wants to go, then go - Newcastle is a long-term project, while being hindered by the Red Cartel loving Premier League, will one day be number one. We need committed players. The fans have given him nothing but love and support, unlike what he experienced in Everton. So I feel he's acting rather entitled, if the theories of his discontent are true. As long as we get over £100M+, then off ya pop, sonna. No one is bigger than the badge.
Pep Guardiola says that he brings in at least one new player each year just to liven up the dressing room. That’s why he is way ahead of other managers, and I think as well intentioned as it was, it was messed it up by Newcastle. We have the players so it is so disappointing. High wages means you should give it everything but it doesn’t because they are safe for.
I think people underestimate the effect on the squad of selling Minteh and - especially - Anderson, who was good mates with Gordon. This squad has been built on the principle of “ join us and we’re going for the Champion league” and Amanda and Eddie fostered a strong team ethic. Eales unsettled a number of players in January with his ill judged comments about selling our best players, but seeing those two go must have made players like Gordon - especially with the rumours going round - feel that under Eales and now Mitchell they were simply commodities to be traded. That is bound to affect moral and ultimately team performance.
@@michaelgreen1577 I very much agree with you. It unsettled players - and Eddie - at the time and also, in retrospect, signalled a major change in direction. The points we lost as a result of that cost us a place in Europe. I also think that strategy is unnecessary and completely wrong for a club with the aspirations we had, certainly at that time.
I really feel for them as we all know how hard it is to run a small stadium if your not getting the funds. I hope the Newcastle fans give them a great welcome 🤍🖤
to be honest I think £15,000 is a very tight fisted offer. We should be offering them all profits from this game after our costs have been covered. They are desperate for the money and they have given up home advantage after all. Showing ourselves up with this paltry offer
For me giving Bruno the capacitance was never the right choice and upon reflection hes been so bad for us for quite a bit, he looses the ball so so much if that was Longstaff their would be ructions and demands for him to be dropped and the truth is its time to give Bruno and big Joe a rest and not playing Tonali is just criminal. We are in trouble this season and the results thus far are simply papering over the cracks, I will genuinely be surprised if we get a win in the League in the next 5 games, just my opinion and I really hope I am wrong.
The ownership clearly want Howe out. That’s clear, nothing changes until they get their way. Not a chance Howe is given the opportunity to take this team further unfortunately.
Would be nice if we ( & other prem league clubs help out with the costs to rectify the damage to Plough lane) maybe give the gate receipts for the rearranged match at St James to AFC Wimbledon to help out ??
As a PR exercise can you imagine how much good it would do for the club and its reputation if the Saudis just said , send us the bill. Its loose change to them and straight away they will be Wimbledon fans second favourite club. I still remember what Plymouth did when we got promoted at Plymouth, the night we relegated them. Class. I now look out for Plymouth results
It's obvious that things are not right behind the scenes with Mitchell and possibly other things, all of this could have been put to bed weeks ago but it is left to linger on. Howe doesn't know his best team which is obvious from all the changes we are making which is alarming & the 433 just doesn't work anymore especially away from home, we are all too predictable. I really hope he can turn it around but I am becoming more skeptical as while keep rolling out these woeful displays.
Hall is diabolical. Gotta get him off the pitch. He's a disaster waiting to happen. That turnover against Fulham was absolutely horrible. Can you imagine him giving it away to Haaland?
I always give my seat up in cup games to the fans that cant get a season ticket who ever they may be. Would be nice if a lot more did the same or the club give a lot of free tickets to the young kids who will be the fans of the future!
I'm thinking the Xmas tree - 4-3-2-1 - next week. Tino Schar (C) Kelly Hall Longstaff Tonali Joelinton Murphy Barnes Isak Width from the overlapping full backs (but don't complain if they make errors) compact midfield 3 and Murphy and Barnes to press their double pivot (minus Rodri) and be closer to AI. Then give it another 6 games to give it chance to bed in.
I wonder if Barnes might work as a 10 because we need Gordons pace on the wing for me and Barnes could be lethal as a 10. I agree Bruno & Tonali as the 2 midfielders may work better
Has bunce highlighted the injuries last year and linked them to the integrity we were playing with ? And if so has or is Eddie Howe trying to play without it ..
There is obviously something wrong in the club at the moment. The Magpie channel did an interview with Becky who runs the women’s team. She said that she speaks with Mitchell on a daily basis. But he does NOT speak with Eddie. Something is wrong
Im sick of listening to Eddie Howe apologists. Its time for him to go , if not now I suggest he will be the next England manager or sacked by Christmas..
What I think a lot of people don't realise is that Howe started managing a professional first team the same year as Guardiola. Yet he still gets referenced as a young manager with potential to learn a lot and get a lot better. Sixteen years is way longer than most managers manage. Think we have to realise that Howe isn't going to change his approach, what you get you get. This isn't a criticism or say he should get sacked but it is just how it is.
This has been at least 12 months in the making- injuries masked our issues lst season. People blaming Bunce and Mitchell are ignoring Howes limitations. There's a reason PIF didn't consult Howe on Mitchell's appointment. They are concerned with Howe things have been going. 70m on Guehi is bonkers. There's no easy fix and it looks like Howe has lost the dressing room. I'm pretty sure Mitchell didn't insist trippier be dropped as captain, has input into tactics, picks the lineup or makes subs. Yet some of our fans are making him the scapegoat.
Has anyone reminded the players that pre-season is over. Might be time to drop the undroppable Bruno to make a statement but really you could drop a lot of them after today's stinker.
Wake up call? He knows they're not playing well. This was the same as every other game. Except this time, Pope lets in a howler and Schar misses a sitter. Otherwise, we're sitting here saying the same thing again.
