Newcastle run out of steam at Bournemouth in The Eddie Howe Derby

Newcastle have been stuttering somewhat in 2023 and a trip to Bournemouth for The Eddie Howe Derby ended in another Premier League stalemate…, Brighton’s draw at Crystal Palace and Spurs’ hiding at Leicester had presented an opportunity for Newcastle to solidify their position in fourth place in the Premier League while closing the gap at the top of the table.

Well, this season Bournemouth are back and they’ve had a strange season so far, with all bar three of the games in which they’ve taken any points whatsoever coming in the six weeks following their 9-0 shellacking at Liverpool. Caretaker Gary O’Neil was appointed into the job on the basis of this run, and after their 2-1 win against Leicester on the 8th October they were in 8th place in the Premier League table.

And Newcastle United are in a bit of a funk at the moment, not that you would have noticed in the midst of the fever that has settled over the club since the Saudi takeover but, in amongst the small matter of the celebrations at having reached their first EFL Cup final since 1976, their league form has tailed off a little. Newcastle have played five Premier League games in 2023, winning one and drawing four.

There were just seconds left in the first half when Newcastle found a route back into the game. Alain Saint-Maximin passed inside from the left, Sean Longstaff’s shot was well blocked by Neto and Miguel Almiron scored from the rebound. It was not an equalising goal that Newcastle particularly deserved, but it came at a critical time for Newcastle, rescuing parity for the half-time break while also perhaps allowing a little self-doubt to creep back into Bournemouth’s thoughts at a crucial time.

twoht Just not that good, cheers.
