"I'd never put myself before the club" but orchestrates his nephew getting a position of immense power, ensures his good friend becomes sporting director, and buys players that set us back because they fit his PL proven model #NUFC

🚨 Eddie Howe asked if he has any doubt that he’s the man to take #NUFC forward: 🗣️ “There’s no doubt in my mind — that’s why I’m sat here. If there was then I wouldn’t be. 🗣️ “As long as I feel that in my heart and in my spirit, then my desire and motivation levels are as high as they have ever been. 🗣️ “The club is the most important thing. I’d never put myself before the club if I didn’t think I was the correct man to take the team forward. 🗣️ “I would step aside and let sometime else do it if I didn’t feel I could give the players what they need. 🗣️ “It’s not something I judge every day. It’s a feeling that you have, and as long as that feeling is there and remains inside of me I will fight every day to the maximum that I can for the success of the club.”

Spurs, City and Chelsea away. Man Utd and Everton at home.
5 games where getting any more than 4 points will be an achievement.
Could finish anywhere between 17th-14th and I wouldn't be suprised. Might even get dragged into a relegation battle ffs #NUFC

@Yanited1892 @MsiDouglas I get that, but Forest don't have injuries to 2 of there 6 midfielders (Bruno and Big Joe) when 1 of that 6 is already being asked to play out of position due to injuries at the back (Miley).
We need players in. Its just excuses from Eddie and people like Mark who champion him.

@FrankRabbit25 @MsiDouglas He can’t even get in the Forest team mate, they’ve sent him back

A lot of people saying other clubs are using the loan market... one confirmed loan signing so far this window (Leeds signing Buonanotte from Brighton). Luiz, in talks to go to Villa, will be an expensive deal. Wouldn't get in #nufc XI imo.
I guess it's about working out where you deploy resources 🤷♂️
Mark Douglas@MsiDouglas
🇫🇷 Howe suggests #nufc unlikely to bring in a loan signing. "Very difficult for us to use loan market. Not very many clubs around the world who want to help us because we're competitors." Is a difficult market generally ATM

Love Eddie, but for this to even be close to being a reality, he'd need to be moved on for a generational manager who can make us a truly elite team #NUFC

🚨 🌍 David Hopkinson says he sees Newcastle United being in the debate over who is the top club in the world — by 2030. 😆 🗣️ “That kind of progress doesn’t take as long as you might think! We have to have the courage to ignore those that doubt us, and even those that laugh at us.” 🔝 🗣️ “I’ve been through this journey before. I’ve done it with a total under-performer. And that’s definitely not what #NUFC is.” 🇸🇦 🗣️ “I truly believe in my heart of hearts that we (Newcastle United) are PIF’s favourite investment.” 🏟️ 🗣️ “I want to be clear on this. We literally have not taken a decision on what we’re going to do (new stadium or stay at SJP). Either (redeveloping or moving) takes years and years.” 🏆 🗣️ “Can Newcastle win the Premier League? Yeah of course. Why not? Our job is to be perennial contenders. (But) the correlation between points earned and revenue is undeniable.” 📖 🤓 Full story below — plus my analysis on his comments: skysports.com/football/news/…

Shocker of a second half display from Newcastle today. Consecutive Sundays they’ve been 1-0 up and lost 3-1.
You could see the application was there today, but the quality wasn’t.
The midfield were overrun, too many sloppy passes and Woltemade leading the line away from home is not working.
Dan Burn was clearly struggling at LB against Ouattara, and on a booking — so Lewis Hall shoud’ve been on before Burn was dismissed.
It’s going to be a long old two weeks for fans and those not away on international duty…

I'd say Eddie is out of ideas, but the fact he keeps picking the same players, tactics and formations, I'd say he doesn't have any ideas in the first place #NUFC
English
Problem with #NUFC at the minute is its all stale.
Same formations, same tactics, same team selections, same performances.
Even with new signings, Eddie just plops them into the same ridgid system.
There needs to be accountability if things don't improve.

Spent £140m on an injured 30 year old that had 12 months left on his contract, a winger that is the secret love child of Obertan and Adama Traore, and a player that has zero creativity from midfield and looks like a Willock regen.
Clubs a mess #NUFC
