Honestly, this is why i think us Newcastle fans get slaped with the whole 'deluded' thing. Before the takeover we were going down into football oblivion.

Newcastle fans know that what Howe achieved from us going certain relegation - Champions League qualification within one season knows he’s earned our respect. We know a squad with Lascelles, Ritchie, Almiron, Dummett, etc as our bench is not good enough, and it’s going to take a long long long time before we’ll be able to bring the likes of top class strikers off the bench like Alvarez off for whenever Haaland gets a bit tired. We’re a million miles off Man City in terms of players, and you can’t blame Howe for doing amazing with the limited amount he has.

I’m afraid I disagree with a lot of what’s being said. Entitled to this opinion of course, but this is very short memory stuff. You can’t ignore one reality. Almiron, Longstaff and Burn were massive in attaining not just Champions League but a cup final. I’ll admit they’re not world beaters, but they’re not Championship players. I’d put them as solid premier league players under Howe. You can’t let Bruce distort that. After all, Longstaff was playing well under Rafa too. We rejected a 50 mill bid for him from Man U at the time. Far too simplistic and dismissive to me 🤷‍♂️

[@SteviePeters-x3u]

The problem with longstaff is the fact we don’t really have any alternatives with tonali willock and joelinton (less so but out for the season) playing only a handful of games

The sheer volume of injuries AND the position of the players injured. Anderson, willock, tonali, Joelinton in midfield. Barnes, Isak, Wilson, Murphey upfront. What i will say is that i think eddie could have been more brave with the youngsters to give some of the first team a rest. On the subject of Livramento dont forget he is just back from a year out. You have to give him some rest.

[@ellleigh1216]

I know Brian just thinks all the “hate” comments are a load of rubbish but at this point it’s just constructive criticism. The channel and discussions are going down hill. We just need more of a genuine chat, and people held accountable for there views, Brian included.

[@jamesputtik1474]

These same excuses he gives Howe he doesn't use for other managers' injuries either matter or they don't. They've lost to teams who have poorer players and have spent a lot less there's no excuse for that. Imo Howe shouldn't be sacked but neither should Ten Haag who Brian has slammed. I do think both teams to get to the next level there's a possibility that both get sacked.

[@SteviePeters-x3u]

False equivalence Chelsea and Man Utd injuries are players like Diallo Martial Maguire Mount Lavia Forfana Sanchez who are all usless while James and Chiwell are made of glass.

@@jamesputtik1474C'mon dude, Newcastle have by far and away the most days lost through injury in the entire league, about 50% ahead of Man Utd, who were 6th in the injury table when it was last updated. Another difference is Newcastle are underperforming their expected points and have been unlucky, whereas Man Utd have managed to pick up points whilst playing awfully. Check the expected points table for example - Newcastle 5th, Man Utd 13th!! And that's before mentioning the strength in depth of the squads.

[@jamesputtik1474]

@@ImmuneGEORGE Newcastle have had terrible injuries 100% but no one lets ten Haag / Utd off for having a lot of injuries to crucial players as well thats the point I’m trying to make ,that’s as well as having to deal with multiple players accused of SA, new ownership / structure , spoilt brat players like sancho. Utd’s squad depth isn’t exactly brilliant as well they’ve had to play Johnny Evan’s as a cb and players like martial and Antony who are rubbish. Newcastle have definitely played better this season then Utd, but surely it’s a good sign that Utd have still managed to pick up points whilst playing poorly, i imagine when they hit form and play well they’ll be a good side like last year. City have had some under par performances all year but have still managed to win which is what good teams do

Brian's (and a portion of nufc fanbase) gripe with Almiron is really annoying, one of the hardest working players in Newcastle, big reason why Newcastle got top 4 last season, and one of the few players playing 90 mins football 3 times a week! for the first half of the season, playing outside of his natural position for his entire career in nufc basically, and still playing well

[@leeauld4216]

Yea, as a Toon fan I think he's way overly harsh on him. Is he inconsistent and has patches of hot and cold scoring wise? Yes, but the lad always puts a shift in. I think you could say that for all our wingers tbf.

[@joinmeonthedarkside2]

Ffp .. We can't do 115 breaches So as said many are championship players . Too many injuries even the best teams would struggle losing so many players

[@acapocci]

BDB is awesome. No time for moaners. Definitely a prem player. Brings so much to the team. Opposition are setting up for counter attacks so he is on the receiving end unfairly. We're losing possession in the middle too easily which we weren't last season, so we're setting up these foot races. The problem will go away when we have players back and bench to rotate.

[@MSPintail]

Longstaff, Almiron & Murphy are championship footballers now? 🤣Three players who were integral in us getting 4th? Fair enough things were going our way last season, and they are not top 4 players, but they are capable mid/upper half PL players.

He has a problem with Almiron. Championship footballers aren't worth £30m

[@AMPH1983]

Howe shouldn't be under any pressure. Only 5 points worse off than last season.

[@branaldinho]

With the injury situation that just shows that Newcastle as a club and fanbase aren’t ready to be one of the top clubs in Europe. When you’re at the top level you basically have to use your full strength team twice a week. All the top teams have to deal with injuries. As a Liverpool fan I’d love to cry about how we’re gonna be without Salah, szoboszlai, Thiago, Matip for the league cup final. But you just have to deal with it

Eddie Howe's in-game management has cost us, and will cost us many a game if he doest start to be 'proactive,' instead of being 'reactive', when making substitutions. I, e, it took us to become 4-2 down against Luton, until he made the swithch to take off D. Burn, & bring on Tino Livremento. It was obvious from the start that he was getting skinned for pace, yet, as above 4 goals, 'reactive' Eddie makes the change. What worries me is hes not learning from this . I fear it will happen again. As all Nufc, even Brighton, fans will tell you. Eddie Howe has his favourites !

Your take on Longstaff is always poor. He's doing exactly what he is supposed to be doing so that Trippier and RW (usually Almiron) can combine. Also... Newcastle would have been relegated were it not for Chris Wood. We couldn't get out of our own half with the ball until he signed.
