@BridgesLeo123 @BNufcb77 And I assume the 118 appearances includes plenty of 3/4 mins off the bench?

@CharIieBennett It’s the “quick gamble”, rather than fix, right?

4 years ago my club was in the shit, bottom of the league, no wins and every pundit in the world telling me we were already relegated, then one bloke walked through the door and changed everything, he saved us, now it's our turn to help him #eddiehowesblackandwhitearmy #NUFC

Man is a leader like we haven’t had in decades. Has more class in his pinky than some of these X accounts.

Love this bloke.

If we lose Eddie Howe a year after losing Isak it may be the worse year in #NUFC history. He’s the best thing to happen to this club since Bobby Robson. But some won’t realise until he’s gone unfortunately.

Since then I’ve been to 2 cup finals - one of which we won against the PL champions - and we’re about to entertain Barca in our 2nd CL campaign within 3 years.

But aye, slow progress 🤷🏻‍♂️

@AsimC86 I was going to tweet you this yesterday but didn’t know if you’d be in the mood for it 😂⚫️⚪️🐀

You were idolised and adored by every generation of our brilliant fan base, legendary status.

You have shown your true colours and thrown it right back in the face of those same supporters.

Good riddance.

On the “Civil Wor” at Newcastle, maybe if Liverpool had acted earlier and offered a proper fee for Alexander Isak, a world-class centre-forward with three years left on his contract, Newcastle would have had time and funds to bring in a suitable replacement. £110m was disrespectful to Newcastle (and Isak). And who are Newcastle going to get at this late stage of the window with suitable targets moved elsewhere? Yoane Wissa is not like for like. Newcastle need two anyway with Callum Wilson gone. It’s very easy to see why Newcastle and their proud, tough owners who don't like losing - or losing face - are playing hard-ball and determined to keep Isak. The saga continues. #NUFC #LFC

What a contrast from 3 #NUFC centre-forwards

[Wor Flags 🏴🏳 @worflags]

Idolised and adored. No promises broken by the fans that make this club.

We deserve better than the destructive path you've chosen.

Newcastle United will never be defeated.

However the Alexander Isak saga eventually concludes, let’s hope that at some point the player has the good grace to acknowledge the debt he owes Eddie Howe for helping his development into one of the best players in the world and also apologises for causing such chaos.

It’s one thing a player wanting to leave – ambition, short career, levels, finance whatever – but it’s the aggressive way that Isak tries to force his way out - midway through a six-year contract - that also causes such anger on Tyneside. In the middle of this maelstrom, Howe shows commendable calm and patience.

Newcastle’s head coach is being strong, demanding standards of behaviour, yet diplomatically leaving the dressing-room door open in case Liverpool don’t make an acceptable offer (£130m+) and Isak does stay.

Howe deserves huge respect for the dignified, intelligent way he’s handling a damaging distraction. He's trying to prepare his team for what should be an exciting season not knowing who will form his attack, and currently fielding a wide player in Anthony Gordon centrally. He’s dealing with a troublesome transfer window without a sporting director or chief executive.

He’s going into press conferences knowing they will be dominated by questions about a striking striker. In the modern media, and social media, age, Howe has to choose every word carefully, knowing they will be scrutinised forensically and emotionally. He has to pick the right words to send the right message to Isak, to the other players, to potential signings, and to the Newcastle faithful outraged by Isak’s behaviour. Newcastle’s board are fortunate they have such an impressive figure fronting up for them and the club.

Howe also deserves more respect and gratitude from Isak. Since joining in 2022, Isak’s improvement from a very good £63m 22-year-old into an elite performer worth £130m+ is obviously largely down to his own ability and inner drive but Howe deserves huge credit. He makes good players even better.

His coaching, man-management and building a system to bring the best out of Isak helped turn the Swede into a player coveted by Liverpool. Let’s hope Isak respects that one day. #NUFC
