FarehamSaintJames Posted 13 November, 2022 Share Posted 13 November, 2022 Eddie Howe has done a really good job. Yea he’s had a bit of money to spend but it’s his man-management that has paid off for Newcastle. The players that weren’t firing now are. That’s not down to money spent. That’s down to the coaching and management. Some will always despise Eddie Howe purely cos he was at Bournemouth but let’s be honest we’d all take him at Saints. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As he always was when he was here, without him during those seasons we would have been done for. It was the failure to adequately replace him that's put us in this position we are right now. Armstrong was targeted as his successor (we couldn't even buy him until we had cashed the Ings money), and that has been a total disaster of epic proportions. If you look back we had similar issues with our game when Ings was here (conceding lots of goals, letting leads slip, open on the break etc) but we always had that clinical edge to take a chance ourselves. I know it's very simplistic, but that's the single difference between us being comfortable and dredged in the mire.

FarehamSaintJames Posted 13 November, 2022 Share Posted 13 November, 2022 There’s a few on Twitter saying we should go back in for Ings in January. Are they high? Like he’d return. He’s just hitting some form at Villa and I’m sure he’d rather play higher up the table with arguably better players and Emery as boss than return. Then again the same people on Twitter are suggesting we should go back in for Gakpo… 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarehamSaintJames Posted 13 November, 2022 Share Posted 13 November, 2022 This season is going to be unbelievably tight for four or five teams, and we’re one of them. Before the season started I’d say bottom eleven you couldn’t call. But those teams that are down there/have been down there recently such as Wolves, Leicester, West Ham, Villa are all better than us. And the teams close to our level taking points off each other, something we’ve struggled hugely with, losing to Wolves, Villa, Palace and Everton.

The change in owners from Hall who sold the club and walked away with all the money and Ashley who didn’t have much interest in the club , failed to invest , then hit the jackpot with the Saudis has made the main difference. Howe , as we know , has been a rising star , future England manager and even potential Saints saviour in the past . His stock fell after all that but revived at B mouth until it crashed and burned where he had to walk away from football to recover . Back on the crest of a wave at Newcastle , despite the caretaker manager tag when he was appointed ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An injury to Mitrovic or a dip in form could bring Fulham back into the mix too. January window will be interesting as pretty much all those teams listed will be in the market for a striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarvSFC Posted 13 November, 2022 Share Posted 13 November, 2022 You'd hope that both Wolves and Forest spent their January striker budgets in the summer. Forest bought Awoniyi and Dennis for a combined £40m, while Wolves put £15m down on Kalajdzic to be their main man, only for an injury to scupper it, while Diego Costa and Raul Jimenez will be on a good wage too and nobody's taking on the latter after his injury problems. From looking around Wolves signed Edozie's brother in the summer, he was playing for Bromley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a pretty poor game though, and the coldest I've been for ages. Didn't notice many new faces, any Saints fans who said they were going to use the World Cup break as a chance to watch non-league matches certainly weren't there today.
