That's what I'd like to see but maybe keep Fraser on the left he's been better there

See, I've been thinking this over, and I reckon Howe is getting ready to unleash Shelvey up front and drop Wood into a Box to box midfielder role. We then get a world class striker and another world class midfielder...........then just wait till we see what Kraft is like as a Keeper <laugh><laugh><laugh>

Howe might throw in something different aye.

No I said I agree with his argument that new signings not being able to play in games rescheduled wasn't an outrageous view.

I know football fans and if this was the other way around people would be in her saying the same things.

His argument was that new players shouldn’t be allowed to play.
 
We need a change. Brighton was very poor. Murphy, for all the praise, was weak and effectively missed a sitter yet again. His finishing is atrocious. Shelvey had a dreadful game as well. Krafth had his bad moments as well and I just feel Manquillo is a better and more consistent player. Form isn’t everything.

As Max isn’t quite fit so I’d reluctantly keep the front three the same but it’s Bruno for Shelvey and Manquillo for Krafth for me.

Yeah and he had a valid argument... Newcastle gained an advantage and I understand where he's coming from.

The game was due before the window opened, so we wouldn't have had Bruno, burn, Targett or wood at that time, so for him to say well hang on a second I don't disagree with and certainly don't think that makes him vile as described on here.

I've also made it crystal clear that nufc did nothing wrong, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a valid point.

Anyway I hope we play them and win that's all I care about.

Weve been getting worse these last few weeks. The tactical switch and fitness improvement threw a few opponents off but they’ve worked us out a bit since and will be looking to drive us back 10 yards so the old Rafa/Bruce habits come back out. For me it’s vital we start Bruno to avoid this.

Another factor has been the realisation that you can pretty much leave Wood alone cos he’s no threat in any situation, can’t hold it up and is generally about five minutes off the pace.

I’d go with Bruno in, Manquillo in and Shelvey/Krafth out. Purely because the good luck will run out and so will the performance levels of these two. I’d drop Wood but he’s lucky the only player in the squad who is worse is Gayle so we’ve no option. Would leave ASM on the bench for now.

So are you saying that Wood is going to get a late winner?

It’s not a valid argument at all.

If we had done something against the rules then it would be but we didn’t and haven’t and it is, therefore, pathetic and whiny.

The rules were set at the beginning of the season and if he was against this possibility then he should have said so then.

No you see there's a difference between having a valid argument and what the rules say.

That's why rules are reviewed.
 
Furthermore there is no time frame for when it's acceptable to highlight a concern or raise an issue.

I know you'd be arguing he was right if you supported Southampton.. That's the way football fans brains operate, but it is actually easy to see both sides and state so.

So why didn’t he say something before? Or why does the issue only relates to us?

It doesn't matter when he stated it it's a valid argument and I think he has a case for suggesting it.

It's not about nufc or Southampton it's about what he said based on what happened and what the implications and advantages were.

1 Newcastle gained an advantage that would be seen as unfair by the opposition.
2.Newcastle didn't break any rules.
