Let's not pretend that Newcastle United are flying along exactly as we all expected and the Saudis paid for...
While away on international duty with Brazil, Bruno Guimaraes had picked up a hamstring injury that left him out of contention for their friendly match against Ghana. Newcastle requested his early return and he was back in England by the time of Brazil’s second match against Tunisia.
The loss of these two players would be bad enough, but Newcastle’s injury list doesn’t end there.
And it should be added that this is a terrible time of this particular season for any club to be picking up a number of injuries. October is going to be very busy month for Newcastle, with six Premier League matches to pack in, and while November provides the interregnum of the World Cup, that doesn’t arrive until a further three games – two in the Premier League and one in the Carabao Cup – have been played.
But for now, the club seem to be keeping faith with Howe and that’s unsurprising, considering what could be up for grabs by the end of 2022. It remains entirely possible that the England manager’s job may be available by the end of the year, and it’s not difficult to imagine thatThe Independent have already reported that the Saudis have should that eventuality come to pass.
