Fucking sexy post

[Kanj]

He’s doing this without Wilson and Trippier too by the way. I’m fucking floored. 
 

I absolutely love and admire the fella. Everytime he speaks I’m stopping and taking every word. His tactical brain and general running of the football side - the culture shift. Unbelievable stuff.

First time I've watched us live under Howe last night, and was incredibly impressed with our shape, fitness and desire. Never looked in trouble at any point against a team who have had a really good season.

The transformation he and his team have brought about has been incredible.

never a single excuse yet about injuries.

never puts a dampener on any fans expectations.

never talks up the opposition to an extent where we're beaten before we start.

goes in to win every game home or away.

never disrespects an interviewer or loses it.

never licks his own face or frequents kebab shops.

[Tiresias]

On the negative side never writes a succession of hilarious novels

I've yet to see him scratch his balls, too.

The dude actually reminds me of Steve Kerr for some reason. Similar personality types. Every time he speaks, you just want to listen. Hopefully Eddie can do to Newcastle what Steve Kerr did to the Warriors.

It looked like we'd put some serious work into our attacking movement early doors yesterday. Pleasing to see. More to come, but it looked like we had some new ideas going forward.

Loved that weird free kick that Shelvey and Targett faked over three times

Imagine it with actual quality forward players

Interesting, I saw the interview with Wood and he alluded to EH asking him (and others) to do different things each week, make different runs etc

Essentially tailoring roles to match the opposition. I thought it was interesting Wood said he like the challenge or something like that. That implies some managers just run the same tactics every game and hope they have the better side. This seems like a more sensible approach.

Exactly, you can imagine Dyche saying basically the same most weeks "Right lad, get in the box, get on the end of things". No offense intended to Dyche, he might be more tactically flexible and astute than I give him credit for.

But remember folks, Bruce should have been given more of a chance to relegate us.

Until Eddie I was never happy…

Sick of reading Unai Emery quotes talking about us in the Athletic. I don't blame him for turning us down, but he was disrespectful in how he did it. Hope you do well at Villareal mate, but we have the right man for the job here.

Just some generic stuff about how Newcastle was an attractive job but different to Arsenal, but in the end how being in the CL at VR was too important. Which is fine, but he shoud have said that at the time instead of trying to shift the blame to Stavely & co.

[SUPERTOON]

Truly remarkable job he has done to have us 10 points clear at this stage.

When he was appointed (9 November 2021) we were in 19th place with 5 points from 11 games.  5 points adrift of 17th. 62% chance of relegation according to Fivethirtyeight.

 

Since then we've taken 29 points from 20 games. 2% chance of relegation now, supposedly.
