Massive fan of his.. only negative about the team at the minute is these 'setback' injuries.  Hope it's seriously getting looked into, seems very common around the squad at the moment.

 

 

When was it not, it isn't just an Eddie Howe problem, we seem to have always picked up a lot of injuries, whether that's because of the training pitches or facilities but it's been the case for years

God knows why but I tried to read the Chronicle online. On me android. 

 

Managed to find out what Eddie said and it's pretty reasonable stuff. 

 

 

It's not Eddie's style to get dragged into pissing contests, he leaves that for rabid bespectacled German managers with chimpanzee teeth.

"Jürgen Klopp doesn't know what he's talking about" isn't even paraphrasing what Howe said, it's just a made up lie. He doesn't even really reference Klopp in his answer, other then stating that we have our own restraints like others.

 

That headline is actually outrageous :lol:

Eddie Howe blasts "not accurate" Jurgen Klopp in Liverpool v Newcastle Saudi spending power row. #lfc #nufc
? Liverpool turnover £550m, Newcastle United £170m
? Nunez £85m, Isak £58m.

After last night, we are now joint second in points in the "first half table".

The only two goals conceded were the City sucker punch and that Ruben Neves wonderstrike that went through Willocks legs (i.e., was nearly blocked).

Doing so well in the first half suggests we are going into games with well-constructed game plans, no doubt the result of Howe's hard work and perfectionism.

 

If we're winning at HT, there is no need to go hell-for-leather second half, so game state will massively affect our second half stats.

However, we do seem to be tiring in games, and unable to do much from the bench. The bench is so weak that it would be unfair to judge Howe on his own ability to change games.

 

As a bonus, look at Liverpool's first half stats.

Philippe Auclair is apoplectic with rage that Newcastle have spent money this year and with Eddie for saying that we have constraints to our spending going forward. He's also incensed that Eddie didn't get on his knees and blow Klopp for being a dickhead earlier in the week

I can't believe some of the hate Eddie is getting for these comments. The pro-Liverpool media machine is in overdrive right now.

Would be understandable if it was stuff he actually said instead of newspaper headlines made out if stuff he didn't.
