It's kinda the cycle which most high-pressing teams have to go through. It works well at first, until other teams simply stop trying to play through. Then you have to change your style to be more possesion-oriented

The only thing stopping newcastle from solving all their problems is FFP😂

We've been waiting for someone in any of the recent press conferences to ask questions from this short. All we get is questions about Eddie Howe getting Oasis tickets. Great video

[craigfoulkes]

I think there will be more clubs deciding to mix it up and go long against the press as well as building up from the back

Funny how Chris Wood went from Newcastle’s third choice striker, to one of the best in-form attackers in the premier league at Forest 😂. Not saying he is one of the best strikers in terms of quality, but he has definitely been one of the best strikers this season.

That's why Chelsea is not letting madueke leave in August but they can get bakayoko from PSV.

This is why it is advisable to elvovle as a manager tweak 2 or 3 things in your tactics before a new season starts so that teams don't figure out your team too much bc once they do you're doomed that's the EPL for you

The other team is trying to stop them from doing so.

[geordiedog]

All fair enough. But I wound point out that against EFC and BHA we created plenty of chances and it was simply poor finishing. Nothing more, nothing less.

Who do you think is to blame for Newcastle's problems?

[JoelOsakioyamenObaseki]

I THOUGHT SANDER JNR SOLVED THIS PROBLEM 💀

[LordSeth-hfew]

I still think Newcastle made a huge error going for higher quality players so soon, 2 seasons back to back that’s infested with injuries and lack of squad depth yet they don’t invest in less valuable players

[mangeshkamble]

They have over achieved in previous years

[simpletown]

Hpw long till long ball kick and run tactics come back to expose higg pressing teams before teams can drop back in a low block?

[jogoegel]

Newcastle, Girona, lens, and Stuttgart did incredibly well in one season. Then the next season they lost consistency and performed incredibly bad

Bit of classic hoofball to smash the 'systems'

Murphy playing as a wingback has been utter garbage. Play him in midfield or RW.

"why Newcastle can't score" and yet theyve still scored more than united under this fraud
