    So Howe didn’t pick them in the match day squad?

    So Howe didn’t then decide to put them on the pitch.

    Seems he can’t win, no matter what he does. He’s to blame if we lose but it’s not thanks to him when we win. After all, as someone said, he’s the Manager.

    He's a Delusional! Newcastle haven't turned a single game around until Today and only injuries resulted in the correct personnel.

    He didn't pick them in the 1st place and he ended up having to bring barnes and hall on because of injuries not because he figured something out..

    Livramento and almirons injuries are the only reason barnes and hall got on that pitch when they did.

    That was the only game Newcastle have turned around and it was down to Injuries forcing the managers hand.

    Thank you for that clarification.

    Sigh. Ok. Howe obviously planned for all the changes today and it was because of these changes we won.

    Not because the team were losing at 3-1 because he was forced to make the changes.

    Come on man. You’re a clever bloke. Let your eyes tell you what is happening.

    Why didn't he pick them 1. In the 1st place 2. When lascelles went off and brought krafth on 4. When he brought Almiron on ?

    Without the injuries we all know he wouldn't have made the right choice.

    We were forgetting that teams can also attack. We went all out gung ho.

    But we won. It was an amazing game. Buy an example of if Howe plays the right players in the right positions we win games.

    That's called poor organisation... no luck involved.

    Huh ... Burn and schar were both nowhere near the right areas... Gordon and Livramento the only players in sight.

    Newcastle are dreadful at set pieces and it's organisational.

    Or getting lucky because you make the subs because or Injury’s and they paid off. But most of them players should maybe have started. And in the right positions.

    You’ve asked for Howe to learn/develop. Does it matter how or why he develops and/or learns? So long as he learns. Not sure who people are thinking Barnes should have replaced in the starting line up or Anderson because positionally that would be Gordon.

    Hall, I agree he should have started today but regardless the criticism of Howe from some is OTT (yes, I’m thinking Chaos and Roly in particular) and repetitive (numerous posts on the same page never mind thread) and non constructive. Some have very short memories and/or convenient memories and are either plain incapable or just plain too stupid to understand FFP.

    Now, I’ll just continue to enjoy a fabulous fight back and win.

    Short memory? You seem to be forgetting the season before today. Remind me how many more games Newcastle have turned around ? The answer is zero... so basically the manager hasn't managed to through changes once... today was forced changes he wouldn't have made otherwise.

    It matters that the managers learns and makes the right decisions without injuries leading him to them as last unintended resort... you need a manager that doesn't require that.

    It's not rocket science this and if you want to have a good night why not stop crying about other people in the first place.

    Explain to me why he brought on Krafth and moved Livermento to left back.

    Rather than just moving Burn to CB and bringing on Hall.

    Liverento probably got injured because his natural position is rb and his body is built for that accordingly. I can’t defiantly say his injury is as a result but when you’re not playing in your prime position.

    The subs were a clusterfuck and it was pure luck that we ended up with the best 3 players today on the pitch by accident.

    Anderson is by far a better player than Longstaff on today’s play.

    Hall is a better LB than Burn.

    I appreciate it’s easy for me to say this now.

    But I said the same thing at 1-1. We wheee sleep walking to a defeat at that point.

    And your final sentance I absolutely agree with. It was an amazing come back regardless of decisions. Everyone should rejoice in that.
