McDog Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 14 minutes ago, Joelinton7 said: It’s because he thinks little tidbits he gets to be privy to in press conferences are the most fascinating things in the world and everybody must know about them because in his mind he’s best mates with Eddie and everyone is jealous of him. In reality Eddie is forced to speak to him and the rest of the media as part of his job. They spend a good 10 mins at the start of every episode of Pod on The Tyne just talking about the “hilarious” shenanigans of the press room, where one time Eddie addressed them by name, and it was the most special moment their life. Then George just mumbles something about hating his job, calls Chris Waugh, “Waffles” (who hurriedly stutters that FFP is an issue), and the other guy says “jolly good stuff”.

TBG Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Got it all wrong,again. The Saudis won't stand for this much longer if we keep plummeting down the league. Up there with Keegan for me. Still an outside opportunity to grab 4th? Delete one depending on result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sufi Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 God bless Eddie. He’s made the right call (finally). I think we will be a completely different side with Tino playing. Isak helps also haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 It really baffles me how so many people just pile on any criticism of Howe. People are allowed to say they aren’t happy with something he did, just like anything else connected with the club. Get off your high horses like. I love Howe but he got it massively wrong tonight. Suppose I’m Satan reincarnated now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Agree Decky. He's not infallible. He's not shit. He definitely fucked up over recent weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 There's bound to be criticism of him after probably the worst half of football we've posted in the post-first-transfer-window Howe era. Not expecting a magical second half comeback or anything but we need to show a bit more grit and organisation when we come back out because this has been absolutely chod in virtually every department. We're starting to get players back now (although admittedly there's a fair few key ones still not fit) and the schedule is getting slimmer, but we still lack control and every game we're shipping 2+ goals. There's bound to be some questions asked of Howe and rightly so, but next season with the injuries cleared up and another window behind us we need to see better than this and some of the stuff we've put out lately.

Smal Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 The team doesn’t really look like it knows what it’s doing at the moment. Hard to know how much of it is due to Howe but it has been a consistent theme since November. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyBartoon Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 He’s never gonna change style or tactics so the same things are gonna happen for the rest of the season. The midfield 3 issue continues to haunt this team unfortunately Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose I’m Satan reincarnated now? I want to know what the hell is he doing in training? They can't even string a few passes together. Why doesn't he shift the focus to posession, we have players capable of possession if they were trained properly for it. That being said... still love him, but yeah, needs to wake up a bit, we're shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Doesn’t really get much worse than that. We look so uncompetitive, very reminiscent of performances under Bruce and others when we were there basically to just make up the numbers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) Midfield is non-existant. We need Joelinton, Willock and Tonali back in the mix, it’s impossible to keep possession with Longstaff and Miley when playing against Arsenal away.

The one we are playing now has seen the likes of Forest, Luton and Bournemouth cut through us at will. Surely tonight would have been an ideal time to try tighten us up ?
