- Newcastle bounced back from a disappointing December to beat Aston Villa 1-3, becoming the first away team to win at Villa Park in almost a year. But was this a flash in the pan, or proof that Eddie Howe's men are back to their intense best. FourFourTwo's Adam Clery examines the game.

“When this team can run, this team can win” is the best way to describe Newcastle this season
Thing is it isnt just the players getting better, eddie howe is also improving as a manager its like the more expeience and injuries he gets the better he gets
Exactly ... when AV brought on Leon Bailey which meant DBD (Doh! BDB) was getting exposed (and which led to AV's goal and offside goal), EH swapped Miley for Tino and went to a nominal back 5 which effectively shut down AV. Previously there's a doubt that he would have made this tactical switch 🙂
@@InBodWeTrust DBD? Dig Ban Durn? lol
@@unholyxeras8182 it even looked right when I typed it 🤣
Wew, Adam slapping everyone with pure facts throughout the duration of this video. Murphy already back, Anderson/Barnes/Little Joe also on the brink of a return too. Right us off at your own peril! HWTL.
I was counting every longer pass Martinez did i the first half- I counted 7 out of 8 that either went straight out of play or were intercepted. In terms of shutting Villa down and preventing them from getting out we were superb. For minutes at a time they were trapped in their third.
Howe also saved those three points by bringing on Tino to deal with Bailey. For 10 minutes, Villa looked on top as Bailey was running at and in behind Burn- bringing on Livramento dealt with that and gave Newcastle control back. Not making changes is my biggest criticism of Howe (Not that I have been anything but 100% in support of him) but he did it last night at a vital time.
Another issue with the injuries has been that all they could do was recovery. They were literally not able to put in proper training sessions as they had to simply spend time getting physically prepared for the next game.
Been burned too many time to think we're "back" but certainly thrilled to see us playing like we were last season
In addition to the fatigue factor (yes indeed it matter people!), Howe deserves credit for the tactical change when he subbed Livramento in at 75 minutes for Miley, and switched to a back 5. It helped immensely in that NUFC were able to better deal with Bailey on the flank, who had an immediate impact when he came on. Point blank, if Howe doesn't make that switch in personnel/tactics and Villa possibly come away with a point.
I think these are the things he'll pick up, as much as I love him, his game management regardless of fitness has been a bit poor at times, maybe naive even. He has improved this club so much though I don't like to ever criticise him but we need a few more ways of playing depending on the circumstances. I also think he deserves credit for not moaning, dwelling on the injuries, getting sassy with journalism - he just kept his head down and you could just tell things were going to be ok because of how calm he has been.
Toon played OK and, on balance, deserved the win. Danger for Toon fans is rose coloured glasses, If that marginally offside goal had been awarded to Villa then they had such a head-of-steam up they were going to overrun us. Trippier and Burn would have got destroyed by pace. Lots and lots of things are going right and we are justified in being confident but both the squad and Eddie Howe have still got it all to prove. Great base to build from but nothing more.
true but with the competitiveness of the Prem these days, you can say that about most games - we've been doing a lot of things right in previous games and getting unlucky so it's nice to be on the right side of it - worth mentioning that was against a very strong Villa side away, I guess we'll see if we are really back in the winnable games with Luton/Forest etc@@55north17
@@55north17 Jesus Christ mate, we just beat a top four side away comfortably. Our best result of the campaign hands down. I don’t think you have to worry about our fans being overly confident or deluded
Rose coloured glasses. Need to be realistic. Two goals from set pieces and an own goal.They created more and on another day would have swamped us. We deserved to win on work rate and commitment. That translates into a knackered centre forward and season tickets at the RVI.@@Jettplayzgames
You are EXTREMELY good at your job.
Spot on. Thanks for saying everything I've been screaming at TV pundits/commentators for the last two months! 👏
We were outstanding in that game and you’ve truly reminded me of that. Eddie Howe is a magnificent manager, the fact he got our team through this phase in a relatively respectable fashion and led us to Europe again barring shock FA Cup final heroics (where we CAN rotate, which we couldn’t in the UCL, let alone Group of Death, or PL) is nothing short of a miracle. We got through this spell with HALF A TEAM MISSING. The difficulty was not faced by any other team as much as this, and we pulled through. Eddie Howe, what a man.
Excellent work Adam. I mean, it’s not rocket science about the injuries but the way you presented it was a stats masterclass. Keep this up and folk might start thinking you know what you’re on aboot, like. Anyway, great job.
Brilliant overview Adam as usual .. 45% of players missing effectively sums the season up in a nutshell 👏 👏 👏
Brilliant the way you analyse and explain this. I hope Eddie and the coaches can devise a system (Plan B) for when we can't do this though. It seems to be all or nothing and depends upon availability and fitness. We need to learn to win (or at least not lose) games when we can't play this way.
Im sure that will be a focus in training going forward, Eddie strikes me as the sort of man who learns lessons from failures and difficulties, there was no training time to get the players up to speed on another system of playing during that period but now that there is time to train im confident a back up plan will be worked on
Your videos are usually good, but this one was really excellent Adam. Those injury stats really are something else, broken down in a very clear way.
Love the analysis, this was very informative! Thank you for the work you do. HWTL
When Andy Townsend in the Villa commentary mentioned something about not being able to blame injuries, ooh it boiled the piss so it did.
yeah I saw a pundit say 'thats why having a squad is important, he can't blame injuries' - I feel people don't realise the squad was injured, like our subs at one point were three GKs and three youth academy players and we were playing PSG! Also he has been limited on how much of a squad he can build due to FFP so he has had to make do with some players who people assumed were finished Dummett, Ritchie, Lascelles.
These videos are top drawer . The analysis is outstanding .
Facts the media and pundits either don’t care or just ignore. We’ve still been larely competitive in most games through that period.
Thanks for breaking this down. It was obvious to some of us that players were playing exhausted due to the lack of rotation options but it’s good to see it broken down.
Until FFP changes and allows clubs to build squads of equal depth clubs like Newcastle will always be hit greatly when injuries come along.
Just subscribed! Excellent analysis as always! Eddie Howe is an amazing coach and I hope he stays here as long as possibe!
Well done Adam. Informative and entertaining, what more do you want?
FourFourToon
Subscribed because of another amazing explanation of the toon and there troubles. Honway the lads
Oh no how embarrassing and unforgivable Ho way the lads
Loved this Adam!
Dear adam,
Canny video as always👍
Clear, concise analysis of what has happened to the Toon in the last 3 months & a blueprint for the rest of the season🙏
Regards,
Great review and amazing that Newcastle are still anywhere near the top six.
This is great, esp with injuries explanation hopefully some of the new supports on social media will fi aly get a grasp of it!
Great content mate
Howe Masterclass
God I love this so much. So great to see the stats.
the switch to 5 at the back towards the end of the game was massive
Great analysis ❤
Great stuff. Liked & Subbed
The numbers are even more interesting if you consider the total value of players not available as a percentage of total value and also include Tonali's absence
I think a lot of summer plans went into the impact Tonali would have over this period of play to help Bruno, SL, and Big Joe, rest in games... So his ban can't be understated either
Anyone saying Howe should go or can't cut it is dreaming
Nice report, makes total sense 🎯👏
Brilliant summary and analysis.. Imagine where we will be with 2 or 3 top shelf players and an average injury statistic.. top 4 = 100%
Thank you for your absolutely brilliant and accurate work!
We'd be knocking on the door but the top four is a much bigger ask this season even with more fit players. I think we'll get top six which I still think is a great achievement considering.
Top notch mate 👌
As a nufc fan can i just applaude this video. So many people both within and without the fan base have been super critical of newcastle. But this is exactly why i think we have seen hidden progression this season and why i think the players and coaching staff have done absolute wonders to still be sitting 7th
Cracking analysis mate
Thta post to the "upper thigh" on the 3rd goal still makes me wince.
At last, someone with common sense 🙏
The bravery was a great band. The first album was excellent. Had tickets for the academy years ago, but it was cancelled because Ian Brown collapsed the floor the night before 😮
Should've stuck Dummet in for Hall but otherwise a great analysis. Feel the team are heading in the right direction now with Barnes, Willcock and Wilson nearing being fit.
Dummet lol 😂
Dummett? Why? "He's one of us" am I right?
Newcastle beating Villa just so happens to be my favourite video topic!
Can’t wait for my Toonies to be back fighting fit. Great video, mate!
Brilliant analysis video Loved it-Howay the lads====================================================Great week for Toon
The Bravery was the BEST!!! Thanks for the niche surprise reference.
Excellently put across hopefully some of the tv so called experts will see this and understand more why their was a drop off in performances, but yes I know they still won’t say it how it really is😉👏👏👏🖤🤍🖤🤍
Love it!!
Spot on 🎉
I love this channel
Brilliant one. Nice when football (and CZcams) isn't ONLY aboun opinions. Facts and objective analysis are pretty good too.
This is sublime stuff.
eddie said a few weeks ago we were weren't training and only playing the games required. this break has done wonders for us, and you could see it vs city
i think it also makes a difference to who we are playing. top teams play higher so that works in our favour for counter ability. we always struggle against a low block because we dont have a player that can make something from nothing
Gets an automatic like for The Bravery reference!
🎵Don't look at me that waaayay🎵
I didn’t see any difference here from when we were in form before December. What’s changed is that our players are miles fitter. December destroyed us physically due to the lack of rotation options and playing 2-3 times a week. Now that the amount of fixtures are going to be further apart we can play our game again.
Stop giving away our tactics! Rob Edwards definitely watched this video before our game 🤣
Great video. You forgot about Dummett too
Well explained, I hope the neutrals take note
Will they fuck
Honest Mistake by The Bravery was a banger😂 gonna have to listen to that tune now. One hit wonder
Newcastle just need 17 miggy almirons with better end product and a better weak foot. Love miggy for his effort and how he just never stops running and smiling. Im glad he didn't get sold he is the best squad player when it comes to energy and non stop running
Excellent video. Would be great if some of the 'expert' commentators on TV could view this so that they could really understand better the problems NUFC have faced and also stop talking utter shute.
The Bravery? Scooby Doo villain reveal?! 442 lets Clery cook and the kitchen is HOT!
Lots of love from Alnwick ❤
Facts! All facts
Hope this kick starts our season.
So he went back to having them play like he used to.
Honest mistake was a banger
"dare I say it" - most astute. I too hope we are back to form but a couple games (cup and league) are not proof enough - lets hope it lasts
HOWAY THE LADS!!!!!
Exactly right
I wouldn't say 'fixed' more just business as usual. A large reason as to why we were all over the place this season, was more because the injuries threw our gameplans in the trash, and our solid base had been teared down as a result of that. But if you notice how players settle back, other plays get bit more rest, and form suddenly picks back up. It's why I've said time after time, that we'll have a very good second half of the season, as more will come back, and we'll be geared and ready for it.
Great analysis - but no critique of best gardener in the world Dan Ashcroft leaving us with just TWO injury prone strikers for our first European season in 20 years . . . . . . . . . Hall and Livramento should of been utilised more and we obviously needed at least another centre back & midfielder [Wharton] in January!
That joke went past being too niche it was bad to Too niche it was great 😆
So what happened to Brighton?
Dan Burn is a machine. He could become one of the world's best fullbacks with just a tweak or two.
Problem is you can’t make him younger or faster.
This season is a hard lesson for the club as a whole, whatever could go wrong with freak injuries and suspension (read: Tonali), it has happened. Its a lesson learnt the hard way, if you want to compete with the big boys every single season, make sure your squad depth and quality is robust for a 4 way competition We still have a long way before establishing ourselves as a top 6 club let alone winning a trophy. The consolation this season is the fact that we are still in the FA cup, hopefully with lesser games and more players returning, we might be able to get a good run in the cup and finish in the top 7.
Another belting video, you sir are top draw.
Not to take anything away from Newcastle but Villa have been dire since everyone noticed we were good. We're 14th in the form table. We have struggled in every game since Arsenal. Man Utd absolutely ruined us for example. Both Chelsea (in the cup) and Man utd pressed us and we couldn't cope with it.
Good summary though I think it's a bit early to say "we're back".
Howay the mags!
Was a genius tactic to have 3 keepers on the bench … until pope got injured 🤕
If we get our players back and carry on the levels from v Villa, we’ll finish 5th and hopefully that’s enough for CL
Prob should have done this vid after a good run of form not one game but hope we’ve turned a corner
Good foresight given what happened against Luton ...
NUFC playing fewer games now, they have their intensity back!
haters will say we'll never be a top team if we need to play once a week to implement our style of play - but even if we had say 2 or 3 more top class players like Isak/Bruno/Botman - I reckon we'd be in he last 16 of the Champions League and in a semi of the Carabao. I also think as the quality of the players improve, we'll move to a more possession based style of play and will be breaking down low blocks every week as opposed to running like mad pressing the whole game - it's often overlooked that this is basically the style of play Eddie thinks is best for the current squad, as the players change, Howe's tactics will too I imagine.
Celery > clery
Not sure how that injury spread sheet is ment to work. But Willock played against Man U. Arsenal and Bournemouth…..
Cracking analysis as always - except "How Eddie Howe just fixed Newcastle Utd".
Well he hasn't then?
Just less game, less injured players....
Entertaining as ever HWTL
true but he did go into how Howe approach Villa tactically but yeah the title suggests he's done something different with the general set up but he hasn't really, we won't be going man for man with every team like that - it shows he is learning to adapt a bit more with each game, always worried we were one dimensional both with and without the ball sometimes, Eddie is only getting better as a manager.
@@dddgtsd " Eddie is only getting better as a manager." Oooohhh yes
I did have doubts when he was initially announced. BUT
I ...
was...
wrong...
Hopefully we can go on a bit of a run to ease any pressure that may come from the hierarchy
When I realised Adam was about to envoke An Honest Mistake.... 🎉🎉🎉
Positive comment
I think fans in general downplay the importance of rest and fatigue. Yes these players are paid millions to play but it doesn't exclude them from being tired. Lesser games now. Let's hope we can keep pushing for Europe!
You forgot Dummett, would make a lot more sense than Hall
I liked the video just for the Bravery reference...don't look at me that way
Why are we still alive? Because we're indestructible! HWTL!
9:42 and you didn’t include Anderson who was the Miley before Miley had to play because even he was out injured!!! 9:42
Always enjoy your content but please please please stop using red black font on the field, i cant read them >.
We win one game in the league in ages and apparently this is the turn around? No wonder we get called deluded.
It was clearly a different performance to the ones we've given recently. If you can't see that the fixture congestion and injuries were the problem, you don't understand football
Number 90 on the bench. EZ
I guess people don’t want rid of Howe now, shock
To many games with not enough players has been there problem
