Average age in death in UK from covid is 82.6 years. And uk survival rate is actually close to 99.8% now due to the vaccination programme. All this data is out there on sites such as PHE etc. I am pro vaccination and had all my mine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I've rewatched the first half in full (and intend to watch the second), but I didn't notice at the time just how much higher we played up the pitch. Im not sure if this will be something Howe does every game, but it could produce some very goal heavy games while he's trying to implement it.

Wilson Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Probably been mentioned but there's a good article about the game (and a few other bits) from Waugh on The Athletic. https://theathletic.com/2966237/2021/11/21/eddie-howe-first-fortnight-newcastle-manager?source=user-shared-article Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, it might work more in our favour early on and for the next few games or so, be a bit of a surprise factor. There won't be much footage available of these players in this system. It's been two years of sit everyone behind the ball and hump it up to ASM and Wilson. I saw an average positions graphic from the Brighton game compared to Brentford. Whilst I appreciate Brighton was extreme in how defensive we were and we were playing away from home against a possession based team. It was still much more attacking on Saturday than I would have thought. I think it was 3-4 players more in the opposition half and everyone a good 10 yards further up the pitch.

HawK Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 3 minutes ago, POOT 2.0 said: In one of his interviews he says playing higher up the pitch is his way. Also press heavy. He's someone who says the cliché of "playing on the front foot" but actually does it. His philosophy is more Keegan than anything. The goals that I remember most, other than the ones like Ginola from outside the box, were when we were counter-attacking from deep, though. Gillespie legging it up the right hand side with an inhuman amount of pace, with the trademark falling-over-as-he-crosses it right onto the head of Ferdinand.

He would have had to have had symptoms from the Tuesday or Wednesday to be released before the match, although it sounded like the routine test picked it up on the Friday evening.

HaydnNUFC Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Aye, Tindall said post Brentford that they'd hoped they'd have him back for Arsenal. May be able to in fact shithouse having him back, up Eddie's COVID dodging mags. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
