And for the tedious trolls on Twitter with the “£200 Million on players” line- first goal today made by Fabian Schar, scored by Callum Wilson. Second goal made by Sean Longstaff, scored by Miguel Almiron. All these players were part of the squad under Steve Bruce. Schar didn’t get to play, and Longstaff and Almiron were widely panned for their performances. Look at them now.

Genuinely starting to believe he’s one of the best tactical brains in all of football right now. Just look at each game we’ve played - we’ve installed a system and game plan that nullifies our opposition, forces them into mistakes and further makes OUR players better as a unit. 


The way he delivers his message to the team merely days after Everton and have everybody so well drilled is something else. It’ll obviously be hard to keep up the more signings we make and certain players moving on but I have full faith, I think he’s very special and perfect for where we are and where we aim to be.

This man is taking us to a trophy one day. I fucking love him, love his manner, his tactics, his relationship with the players and the fans. He’s absolutely fucking immense, so pleased we locked him down to a huge contract

Hall won the lottery when he wooed Keegan. 

Staveley won the lottery getting Howe. 

 

All of it could have gone totally Pete Tonge but the former worked wonders until the club ran out of money. The latter is a completely different scenario. 

 

Wor Eddie's smacks them fuckers straight back down when they're talking about money and richness. He knows the lads he inherited. He knows the ones he bought. He sticks up for them all. 

 

Hopefully our Alex Ferguson

I can imagine the set up at the club being like some kind of hive mind. Everybody sharing thoughts, no voice more important than the other, everybody all in on the project, everybody learning. 
 

I think it’s 3 more league games before the World Cup. If we stay in and around where we are there’ll be so many doors open in that January transfer window. If you’re a young, hungry footballer you want in on this.

Whether he is or isn't the best possible is irrelevant. He is doing it well and being a gent with it, gathering a lot of affection and is already in the top 5 best we've had in the last 30 years. Also has time on his side to break in to the top 3 of Robson, Keegan, and Benitez

 

Never mind that. I'm thinking he's knocking on the door of Ferguson, Clough and Mourinho. Seriously.

 

On paper, this squad should be nowhere near the top four.

The man just knows his stuff and clearly works hard to improve himself. This guy's biggest weakness before returning to management was defence. He is now managing the statistically best defence in the entire league. He obviously looks back at what went wrong and rather than ignoring or passing the buck, clearly takes it on board.

 

Hes the anti-PFM. Doesn't ever rest on his laurels and for that reason I genuinely think he can take us as far as the club will let him in the coming years. If he doesn't win a trophy with us I'll be devastated.

I never thought he would be this good. He's improved every single player, and has us working as a proper team. It's the stuff of dreams, which is basically what this takeover has been tbh. Never did I think I'd be lucky enough to experience a great Newcastle team again, but we're right there, and things are only getting better. Buzzing. Can't wait to be back at SJP next week.

Doing a phenomenal job and fully expect it to continue. He's just got everything right and it's just clicking right now, it seems easy but the amount of hard work and effort and dedication to detail is paying off spectacularly. The prep before each game is near perfect, the players are drilled and informed and the unit is getting stronger and stronger with each passing week, the lads are tight as fuck, organised and motivated and that's incredibly tough to beat. Just imagine we had ASM and Isak to bring off the bench this afternoon man? 

Shush man I’m beside meself

“Let’s play”


Remember when we had Steve Stone, Andy Woodman and John Carver planning training sessions over a plate of beans on toast in the canteen? 
 

We’ve come so far

At the risk of getting carried away post-match, surely he has to be in our top 3 managers of most fans match-going memories?

 

I need to start from the 80's due to age, but I've only got Keegan, Robson, Benitez, Hughton and (sorry, only have statistics and genuine pleasure in watching NUFC for a very short period to go by) Pardew to compete with. He's already surpassed the last two, and unless there is a horrible turn of events, he's looking shoe in for the top 3 this season. Personally I would put him above Benitez already given the way he has conducted himself and just adds a bit of class to the club in what could have been a media shit-storm given our new found wealth.
