So. Two starters. One of them in goals. How is that “too many”?
They don’t have the same quality on the bench… He overperformed massively last year… This season he got hit with the toughest possible UCL group, which probably added to the fatigue/the injuries and cost them points in the league as well.
Eric ten hagIt's his Bournemouth spell all over again. He was always going to be a stepping stone for Newcastle. Their owners will want a big name manager next.
I think it'll tell us a lot about Ashworth if he doesn't have the balls to sack him. I think his times up and he's done as much as he can, now it's time for someone else.
Brighton did ruthlessly sack Hughton and move on to Potter. We'll see if that was the ownerships doing or Ashworth's.
Did they? That's the highest I've ever seen it. An absolute battering.Liverpool had an xG of 7.53. That is absolutely ridiculous.
They’ll replace him with Potter.
Your lot looked absolutely knackered tonight. I think it was pools second goal where the midfield couldn’t get back, they jogged back but it wasn’t lazy jogging, it was I’m-too-fecked-to-run jogging.We arrived in the CL spots way too early with massive overachievement, and didn't reinforce as if we intended to stay there. The higher ups clearly are fine with a slower and deliberate build and though this is all obviously disappointing I don't think they're considering sacking at all, barring a massive, massive collapse in the 2nd half of the season.
Still viewed very positively by the vast majority. I'm sure there's some twitter numpties calling for the sack but overall still a lot of good will in the bank from the first 2 seasons.Your lot looked absolutely knackered tonight.

The rigours and emotion of that European visit along with Injuries have been too much.
I actually like Howe, how’s he viewed by the geordie fans?
broke the record for the most xG created in a Premier League game apparently. If Nunez was left on the bench it would probably be 7 conceded.Liverpool had an xG of 7.53. That is absolutely ridiculous.
Good. I’m in the minority here but I actually like him and from a personal perspective would like him to do wellStill viewed very positively by the vast majority. I'm sure there's some twitter numpties calling for the sack but overall still a lot of good will in the bank from the first 2 seasons.
Most common criticisms are his leaving it late for subs and general reluctance to rotate until his hand has been forced through injury/suspension.
Still think he's decent but their players are definitely mid-table. People are jumping on another bandwagon.
He's not a CL-winning manager but Newcastle are miles away from having that kind of squad though.
