@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG I understand the system worked but other managers are capable of finding a way to beat it. When we play barnes and Gordon on the wings we can’t even adapt in game and swap them around for 20mins if they aren’t creating much to see if they get any joy. In game tactics are dreadfu

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Im not saying the 433 works in its cureent format, wingers dont necessarily need to always cross but agree they have to have it on the locker. Problem is the system worked, we have a different front man so the whole team has to change.

I'll happily debate this with you @TrueGeordieTG mate. Yes it's been a tough season. Remember Sir Bobby finished 11th twice, Keegan finished 6th (3rd and a 2nd either side). Neither won a trophy either. It's time to get behind Eddie. 👍🖤🤍

@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG But he hasn’t changed the system he’s playing Gordon as a striker to press. We are knackered after 20 minutes now and he can’t change the way we play. Pressing is his only way. For me there’s nothing to lose at this point so just go different and surprise the opposing team

@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG What are the wide men doing now? Crossing balls to nobody. Pointless being on the pitch. Bruno joe Tonali midfield. Ramsey behind Wiss and woltemade. Actually try playing football through the middle and not just bailing out and passing wide and hoying random crosses in

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG So you want Wissa Woltemade Jo tonali miley bruno Hall botman thiaw tino No wide men at all has to be flat as that mind

@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Bruno Tonali Joelinton Ramsey Miley Willock. Aye no squad to pick 4 midfielders. His 433 shite has been found out and he’s too ignorant to think other managers can’t better it. Done over twice comfortably by a newly promoted manager

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG No wingers 🤣 we havent got the sqaud to have that system

@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Right then change formation narrow 3 midfielders and someone playing behind wissa and woltemade. 4 in the middle and no wingers. Let the fullbacks do their job and defend and our narrow formation force us to play through the middle. Teams have worked out the 433.

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG We would still be over ran in midfield.

@doshmeisterr Yeah definitely. I was happy for us to keep Isak out of pure spite even if he left in January just so he didn’t get it all his own way. We just caved at the end

@DiddyNUFC Thing is with players under long contracts, we can still call the shots. I like the fact that we played hardball last year with Isak. We should only sell at a ridiculous price with 4 years still left on Tonali's contract.

We've had one poor season and players are throwing in the towel? What about all the poor seasons Man United, Chelsea and Tottenham have had over the last 5 years? Yet players don't push for moves. Players who come need to have faith. Any team can have one poor year. #nufc

Bye then Sandro. Faking an injury to get out the derby then starting for Italy. Howe can fuck off aswel for letting him do it. Not a pair of balls between them #nufc

@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Or we actually ask our fullbacks to stop worrying about constantly attacking and keep a solid backline and get the wingers to do their job and look for the strikers. If our midfield gets out run now then there’s nothing to lose is their by going for goals?

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG The midfield gets over ran currently with 3 or using a 10. So lumping 2 fwd men and not having the track back would completely kill us

@RichardGibson05 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG I know it’s criminal really because any idiot can see that we are too open at the back and too open in midfield and don’t score anywhere near enough goals to justify 8 players bombing forward every attack. A manager would sort that massive problem out 😑

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Why are you not a manager ?

@SconeOn53847 @bbcnewcastle @raisbeck10 The style of play has been the same. Using Gordon to press from the front doing what Isak used to do. The players are knackered after 20mins. The style of play has needed to be changed to get a good balance and get 90mins out the team. Howe has 1 gameplan and that’s it

@DiddyNUFC @bbcnewcastle @raisbeck10 If you’re style of play has been disrupted you’re going to see a heavier workload on the defence

🗣️  'They haven't recovered from it. They haven't replaced him'. Is Alexander Isak's departure the root cause of Newcastle's struggles this season? 🔊More here: bbc.in/3PGIVh0 🎙️@raisbeck10 & John Anderson #NUFC

@PeteGravesTV What happens if the owners give him another £200m to get it right and it doesn’t work. FFP, players not worth anywhere near what we pay for them. Might not be able to claw much money back. Do they take that risk and may end up with a team like Spurs?

Promised myself I'd keep my head down, but I can't. If some of you can't see that 2 champions league campaigns and an actual trophy, the best day of our lives, doesn't buy you the time to put it right? Then I'm at a loss. I really am. 🖤🤍

@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Doesn’t mean it won’t work. Two strikers actually playing in position atleast might get you more goals. We don’t play through the middle anyway just get pushed wide regardless and cross to nobody. Atleast a winger would have two strikers to try and hit.Whats the harm in trying

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG 442 doesnt work. Midfield get more out run that it does currently

@Mojo293 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Fully agree. We have nothing to lose now this season what harm can it do to try something different and show the fans you might actually have more ideas to try

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Exactly. Amorim got hammered for his refusal to change tactics, and results. The media constantly sniping. Difference... Amorin wasn't british/english. The British sports media wont criticise an English Manager, Just look how they protected Bruce, and Pardew long before him.

@toonarmyblog @JimHearns131711 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG I’m watching us play a winger as a striker and a striker as a midfielder just to suit a formation. Amorim played a winger as a wingback, a fullback as a centreback and whatever Mason Mount is classed as these days played as a striker just to suit his formation.

@DiddyNUFC @JimHearns131711 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Irrespective of whether I agree with your original point we both know that this point is bollocks. If he tried a different formation and it didn't work I can guarantee you he would get hammered by the exact same people. Comparison to Amorim is equally bollocks.

@lsamsy1 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG He could still change formation and play both of them together though and give it a go instead of using a winger as a striker. Whats the worst that could happen? The performances can’t get much worse. Can count on one hand how many times we have played well this season

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG I agree on the formation , but this constant price brining up is redic, both him and elanga were hot of the press, nick was and anomaly. Wissa generally should be a 25 mil player, intended for a wilson replacement. Nick was a big risk so unfortunate that we havent been lucky

@JimHearns131711 @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG I also don’t fully accept tiredness in the players because we were pretty shambolic in pre season and it hasn’t got much better since

@DiddyNUFC @PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG This is 100% correct. We play in a league where 10-14 teams play a low block and we play a flat 433 that doesn’t work against low blocks. It’s the end of the road
