TRon Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 2 minutes ago, HaydnNUFC said: The Athletic is really good for opinion or insightful pieces into tactics, players, managers, how clubs operate, et cetera. It's not good for breaking news like transfers or managerial appointments imo. Just signed up for the free week, then it's £79 a year after that. Ouch. I think I might cancel it again after the free week's up, seems a bit steep to be reading some NUFC related articles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 22 minutes ago, Geordie Magpie said: Hopefully Jones can start picking up some results and then the Owners can go into detail with potential new owners and get the right one in. Links to Martinez and Howe don't excite me but remember beggars can't be choosers and we would of took anyone over Bruce. Fonseca is an up and coming manager and his attacking brand of football would be loved here but could he really get that working with what is essentially a championship level defence? Gerrard has won SPL but managing in the Prem is a big step up and a gamble. See how Jones does next few games! Fonseca has been managing since 2005. Hardly up and coming The days of 3 years rolling and 8 year contracts is over. If we get someone like Gerrard, Howe or Martinez to steady the ship I'm not really concerned, and they should be more easily replaceable when/if they have taken us as far as they can.

The 47-year-old has so far managed River Plate, Club Atlético Banfield and Guadalajara before arriving in the MLS, but the website say Almeyda ‘would like to compete in a much more competitive league’.” http://sportwitness.co.uk/newcastle-made-surprise-enquiry-mls-manager-wants-job-much-competitive-league/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is true, I hope Jones at least steps up training and gets the players in better shape for the new manager. Any results against Palace or Chelsea will be a bonus.

Happinesstan Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 2 hours ago, Conjo said: Someone posted a video of Xavi on here a week or so ago, where he was talking about his tactics and how he is obsessed with possession. Imagine him trying to get the current batch of players to play a possession style of football Have we had even one match in the league with more than 45% possession the last 3 seasons? I imagine a coach who emphasises possession will have training methods to suit. And don't cite Bruce as an example. he is anything but a coach with a plan, or any methods.

Chelsea seem to struggle up here though for whatever reason. Not counting last season due to no fans, they've only won up here once in the last 9 or 10 years. Plus, if a new manager is installed by then the atmosphere will be really good. Edited October 21, 2021 by HaydnNUFC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Regarding the possession game, it can easily be coached. I appreciate some players will have more natural ability on the ball than others, but even players with Football League ability can be taught how to keep the ball, under a decent coach.
