If there was a considerable downturn then yes certain fans will turn against him. But that would be the same at any club with any manager
I think Eddie is focused on bringing in players that improve the squad and are quality over quantity, it certainly seems to me that the club are doing things their own way and, in some respects, have confounded a lot of media expectations, Big Sam is tiresome at best and has an ego that has never matched his actual achievements, I am sure that there is a smidgeon of jealousy as well when he looks at the club now and the way they engage with the manager and fans.
He’s just stealing a living … again I never listen to the crap that he spouts Like dinosaurs his time has gone
Fat Sam had free reign to spend and build his own team with us, and he bought a steaming heap of ****e in Alan Smith, Geremi, Viduka and Rozenhal. And let's not forget Joey Barton, who was in jail less than a year after being bought.
I agree and I think Carragher has been spouting the same rubbish,we finished 4th and recruited a few good looking players,the youths are stepping up,no injuries,personally I think the squad is fine,going out and spending millions on whoever is available doesn't work and is unsettling.
Carragher is one of the guys that's quite kind towards Newcastle. I understand people don't like certain things people hear , but in truth I agree with him on this. I think the players we've brought in aren't quite the players people including Newcastle fans anticipated having qualified for the champions league with the exception of Tonali. He didn't say Newcastle are crap they've signed crap players.. Newcastle fans definitely have a chip on their shoulder... picking fights where there's no need.
Not at all,I'm probably an exception here but I think the squad is fine,you said it yourself we qualified for the CL,so why change it?I think this pushing on stuff is nonsense,we're fine.
Exactly nobody had said otherwise including Carragher. It's people getting defensive rather than him saying anything wrong or even critical. He didn't say anything unreasonable imo and if he'd said I think Newcastle have done crap business that would be different. All the guy said was what most people would agree with themselves which is they were expecting bigger signings and could've got barnes even last summer. He said Barnes is a good player too. I'm not having a go at you mate I'm just pointing out that I've noticed Newcastle fans are ultra defensive and taking issue when there's no fight. Newcastle fans seem to want everyone in the media to suck the clubs plumbs tbh. Needy and never going to happen at any club.
Maddison is probably the only player allegedly we wanted but who knows what happened there if anything at all,Howe knows what he wants and it's not mercenaries and players who think they're bigger than the club.
Carragher said that himself I understand that and that's fine, but there's nothing wrong also saying things like he expected bigger signings surely? What is wrong with what he said? Newcastle will be hated on we've got to accept that, but people picking fights when someone doesn't blow smoke up the clubs arse I think is weird and newcastle fans are definitely sensitive .... I think they think everyone is against them but not everyone is mate. Sorry to go on I didn't mean you specifically I'm always talking fans in general
I never heard of Bruno, Isak and Botman before so if that's the calibre of 'nobodies' we sign I'm good with that. You're grand, pre season nerves.
