Hovagod Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 1 minute ago, NUFCDoog said: Hmm to an extent, its a poor season based on the teams that would finish above us if we were 8th. However, and I know its not the exact same situation, but there's no way when Chelsea and City were taken over a manager would have survived finishing 8th, based on their ambition. Depends if Saudis have the same ambition. Do you ever genuinely reflect on what you are doing with your life when you post on here pretending to be a Newcastle fan? In this world of culture and experience, and this the only opportunity to will ever get to sample it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Love him but he really does need to try something different when we're in losing positions in the last 20. Another side happy to cede possession against us. Willock is doing nothing, might as well get Osula on with Woltemade for that last stretch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 They hurt us by bypassing our press and going long into the forward line from Martinez. Exactly the same as what undid is last season... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope we try Wolt and Wissa starting just to see if we can bring something different to the table over these coming games. A lot will depend on availability of Bruno, tbf. this has cheered me up a fair bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a great point. If pif wants us to continue to be top 4/5 every season there’s probably evidence now that the style of Howe won’t allow it.

Amir_9 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) I think this season in the league is going to prove too much for us to put a proper run of wins together and I can't see us finishing above 7th/8th at best. If the club stick with him in the summer and he goes in with the same style, transfer strategy and philosophy next year then even his biggest defenders on here need to open their eyes a bit. I love Eddie, he is the best coach I have seen since supporting this club back in 2007 but it is clear that this season was a huge missed opportunity if we managed last summer better.

Wallsendmag Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Unfortunately he's brought in a whole load of players who are totally unsuited to the system he wants to play. Wissa been poor, but looks totally isolated anyway. Woltemade looks like he might be a decent enough number 10, but he won't play with one. Elanga appears to be happy playing in a counter attacking team where he'll have space ahead of him to utilise his pace, but we don't play like that. That's £180m on players who don't look suitable to how he wants us to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiseman Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I still think Eddie is the right man for the job, but it's getting more and more apparent that he is struggling to find a way to get the team to work cohesively. Our squad is looking thin and aging now, and our plan of attack has basically one route, which is clearly telegraphed and ultimately not working. The way we are set up and approaching games needs to change, because while we have over performed the last few years compared to what we have spent. Losing all european football again for a season would be a massive step backwards, and may cause us to lose players which will make it even harder for us.
