am I the only one that thought we actually looked a better side today?
With better finishing, I think both JB and SWP are trying too hard at the moment, we'd have won today. Our defence looked much better and as a team we defended much better, two rows of 4 accross the park etc etc as Newcastle came at us. Give Sparky time, and results will come.
What was very apparant was the fact that the players body language towards each other was much more positive than it has been for two or so months. What MH can do is get the team playing as one, NW sadly doesn't have that ability when dealing with big players. Had NW not brought in so many 'big' name players I suspect we may be better off. MH will deal with the 'big' names and gel the squad quickly.
People have been slating JB today but I thought he looked much better, when can you remember him running at and taking defenders on? He looked so much more confident than when paying for Warnock.
I guess if the players didn't rate Warnock's ability then its hard for them to do their best every game. I suspect MH has already gained more respect from the majority of our squad in a week than Warnock could have done in a lifetime.
9 points by the beginning of March and we'll be fine. Just a shame MH will be judged by most on here before then and without the likes of Traore and Taarabt.
A win on Tuesday and a result against Wigan and things will look so much better
