    We didn’t play that well. We probably edged a game against who I think may be relegation candidates this season.

    Remember we are supposed to be top 4 material this season with no European football.

    And we have spent 450m.

    Out of interest, did you make one single positive post during the entire game?

    I didn’t need to as there wasn’t anything positive to post until Howe realised his errors of his ways.

    At least Howe isn’t blind like a lot of others on here.

    I give Howe massive credit for telling it how it is. At least he has the ability to differentiate when we are playing poor but winning games.

    Thankyou Eddie for finally being honest.

    So we scored twice, came from behind and won away from home and in all the game you can’t make even one positive post. Interesting.

    I totally agree that performances could look better, we've not had the same level of intensity as previous seasons and I wouldn't have gone with all of Howe's team selections.

    But... 5 games in, we're unbeaten, top 3 in the PL and still in the cup.

    I'm not complaining.

    I did t post much during the game because I was watching it. And until Schar scored we were ****. Fact.

    After that we played well.

    Yeah he says they aren't playing well and so did Barnes and schar.

    It's weird because they're winning.

    First half we were the better team by far, until they scored

    Since EH has been manager only City, Arsenal and Liverpool have won more points than us. Yet we still get people on here thinking they know better than someone who watches the players every day. Yes he makes mistakes but then again so does everyone. But by high heaven he gets a lot more right than just about every other manager. All about context and bigger picture.

    I'm not convinced this is sustainable.

    But you're right at this point... I don't know how they are getting these results playing like this though.

    Isak hit the post
    Murphy chipped the keeper, which he just managed to save

    Passing around a lot and creating nothing.... it needs to improve and even the manager is saying the same.

    That would be nice... the fixtures for Newcastle are tough for the next few months... if they don't improve this will quickly turn sour.
