"Game management" is often listed as one of Eddie Howe's big weaknesses. But last night he took off Gordon, Isak, Murphy and Willock in a tactical masterstroke that preserved their 2-0 lead.

Yep, Eddie got it spot on.
Great video, great analysis, btw

Absolutely brilliant video Adam. They usually are but this mentioned all the things that the national media failed to realise. We are playing to our strengths and it's as simple as that

I got to feel this was Eddie's learning from PSG last year.

Hi Adam

Have you cherry picked more instances of Longstaff moving to open up passes rather than getting in the way in this one?

Loved it and your Greggs hoodie

Love to see it 🙂

I thought that at the time - risky but clearly confident in the capabilities of the players and system that had obviously been well drilled. Preserving our attacking threat for future games. Great analysis.

Are you allowed to do another Newcastle - Arsenal video so soon after this one? 😀

Just caught up with this vid and I just wanted to say, cracking job, entertaining and informative. Such a good point about Howe not being seen as influencing games from the sideline but the 5-5-0 was such a big call! Will definitely be watching out for future videos!

Nah. It was the ball flying a lot. 🤣🤣🤣. (Great analysis, BTW)

I was at that match, freezing my toes off. Easy to say that (as an Arsenal fan) this video was more fun (for one, my feet are warmer). Do you think all the Arsenal panic is justified or was this just a bad day at the office vs a side in great form?
