This time last year I was hoping we'd spend big on an upgrade on him but I'd be sad to see him drop out the XI now. He ran himself into the ground at the wrong time as he was a massive miss against Villa. He can't be too far down the pecking order for getting the armband if he's still doing the business for us in a few years time. He doesn't strike me as a leader.

GeordieDazzler Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) Did he not briefly have the armband on Saturday between Tripps going off and Lascelles coming on? Edited April 26, 2023 by GeordieDazzler Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was my target when I was at Everton, but fortunately we didn’t do it…” “We have a really good relationship,” Longstaff says of Benitez. “He still texts me every couple of weeks and he’s someone I respect massively, someone I’ll always be grateful to for seeing something in me. I was on a plane ready to go to Portsmouth on loan and he stopped it happening and kept me around. Rafa and the manager now are the people I owe most to in my career. If it wasn’t for those two, I don’t know where I’d be.” That was great. He also had some really big praise for Howe as well, not hard to see how some of our not so great players have doubled in value under his coaching when you read the interview.

Tiresias Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Rafa staying in touch with our players what a class act he is. Meanwhile Howe talking to Longstaff more in first month than bruce did in 2 years. What a fucking dope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think only Alan Pardew and Bruce could make me more ashamed of being a Newcastle fan than the Joe Kinnear era. Honestly thought that bloke was sound compared to those two. At least he was suffering from dementia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

footywithuti Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Evening everyone, I hope you’re doing well. I’ve just done a short video detailing Sean Longstaff’s resurgence in form and how he’s gone from almost being sold to Everton to becoming a lynchpin in Eddie Howe’s midfield for those interested. I found his revelations about mental health struggles to be brave and inspirational in equal measure and wish both him and Newcastle nothing but the very best moving forward.

Lush Vlad Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 No idea if this a reputable source or not. But that’s far from ideal for the run in. Think we could get away with it today. But against the likes of Arsenal and Brighton. We could really do with him. Covers Trippier so well and almost plays right wing, at times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
