It was shocking. Has been for a while. No idea what the answer is.

Sign players with technical quality and unpredictability would be a start. Never happen under the current setup though.

So you're telling me the atmosphere was good and players were actually bothering to try and shoot towards the big rectangle rather than just passing and giving it away half the time?

Stop it, you know I'm on the wine.

I’m sorry that you clearly struggle with the concept of nuance, and other basic ideas. 

The fucking irony. 🤣

Mate, don't do it to yourself. 

 

Get down the pub and have a bit crack with some newcastle fans. Don't waste your time in here, certainly on this topic.

Cheers for the discussion this evening anyway. Always good to see how the other half live etc.

Half? Your opinion on Howe barely represents 10% of what actual fans think.

I thought the atmosphere was pretty pish today, bar perhaps some singing from Strawberry Corner (that I heard on TV)

i thought it was canny tbh.

Was referring more to him being dropped on his head. 
 

I appreciate I’m in a minority on Howe.

Err yes, after we conceded we went dead. No effort from half the players, sloppy passes - not to mention how depressing the atmosphere got.

It was arguably the best performance of the season. We would have comfortably won had we have taken our chances.

We need more of you. 

 

That said Howe's subs were shambolic.

I didn't agree with Howes subs but ultimately the game should have been put to bed by those on the pitch as they should have versus Everton. Fulham was more Howe for me of all the games...

[Shearergol]

We have a massive issue at the moment, we can’t score goals. I personally don’t think we’re creating anywhere near enough chances, regardless of the ones Gordon and Isak missed today. 
 

if it’s not sorted quickly we’re gonna see ourselves plummeting down the table. Really doesn’t matter how much possession we have in games.

[STM]

At home I'd love to see:

 

                 Isak

 

Barnes    Gordon    Joelinton 

 

          Bruno      Tonali

The fans are fast losing faith mind. Ones around me in Gallowgate anyway.

I’d be very keen to see this.

Just checked the table, only 4 points ahead of Everton, for some reason that has really pissed me of!.

We didn't, like at Everton, we are creating chances for a poacher of a forward or an on coming midfielder which we don't have. We are a smidging of hammering teams.

Need to tinker with the flat midfield three, would change us overnight.

[huss9]

best opening 30 minutes for a long time. was prime Howe era football.

at least 5 decent chances for us in the game as a whole.

horrendous finishing.

puzzling subs.... bruno AND tonali off? left us with schar as our only playmaker.

 

but the biggest thing today was what the fuck is up with our corners and set pieces?

worst of any team i've see this season including wimbledon.

 

also think we should have had a pel.

was clear handball when the lad fell on it.

Not for me, Gordon is at his best running into space, and in general just being in a position where he can use his pace 

 

If he played as a 10 it'd be the most congested place on the pitch and we'd lose what he's good at

I've said that since we signed Tonali, I thought that's why we signed him

100% he's not good enough to do the things you'd want from a '10'

I agree with everything above.  First 30 minutes we blew them away.  Sucker punch.  Dominated again.  Set pieces were crap.  I also thought it was a blatant penalty.
