NEWCASTLE DEFENSIVE CRISIS DEEPENS AS TINO LIVRAMENTO LIMPS OFF DURING WIN OVER FULHAM!
Tino Livramento adds to Newcastle’s defensive injury woes during a 2-1 win over Fulham. Get the latest update on his knee injury.
Newcastle United faced another tough break during their Carabao Cup game against Fulham when Tino Livramento had to leave the field due to injury.
Livramento went down a few times because of a problem with his left knee. He was replaced by Alex Murphy with about 15 minutes left in the game.
This is another piece of bad news for the coach, who already has a number of important players out with injuries. Dan Burn, Emil Krafth, Kieran Trippier, Jamaal Lascelles, and Sven Botman are all currently unable to play.
Because of these absences, the Newcastle coach had to piece together a makeshift defence for the quarter-final match against Fulham. Livramento moved to left-back, and Lewis Miley started on the right side of the defence.
The most recent setback happened in the loss to Sunderland when Dan Burn hurt his ribs.
The ref gave the Sunderland player a caution. Burn tried to keep playing, but he had trouble breathing and had to go to the hospital.
That was a big deal for us, the coach said before the game with Fulham. He's been great in recent weeks.
So, yes, it's a rib issue with some problem with his lungs. We hope he gets better soon. It will probably take about 4-6 weeks.
The defence is a concern for us. We don't have a lot of injuries, but the players who are out all play the same position. Whenever that happens, you're stretched thin. So our defence is looking weak.
The coach added, Emil Krafth and Kieran Trippier are still out, and we think they'll be back around the new year.
There's no sign of Botman coming back from injury either, and the coach isn't willing to say when he might return. He said, We're not really sure when Sven will be back. He's getting better, but he's not ready to play yet.
Newcastle was looking to bounce back against Fulham after a terrible performance, and the coach made six changes to his side.
The coach changed the front three, bringing Yoane Wissa into the side, and he scored on his first start.
The DR Congo international scored from close range after Benjamin Lecomte messed up a cross.
But the lead didn't last long, as Sasa Lukic scored for the visitors just six minutes later. Lewis Miley scored late in added time to give Newcastle a 2-1 lead at the end of the game.
EXPERT ANALYSIS: EDDIE HOWE IDENTIFIES "CONFIDENCE" AS THE KEY TO FIXING NEWCASTLE’S AWAY FORM
Despite a nervy second half, Eddie Howe’s side clinched their second away win of the season. Read the full Turf Moor match report.
Eddie Howe’s team barely scraped by Burnley, grabbing only their second Premier League away win this season.
The Magpies jumped ahead quickly with a goal from Joelinton at Turf Moor. Soon after, Yoane Wissa, in his debut Premier League start for the club, made it 2-0. Josh Laurent then scored an awesome volley, cutting the lead in half. Newcastle clung to their lead until Bruno Guimaraes scored a third goal during stoppage time.
It wasn't a pretty game for Newcastle United on that cold night in Lancashire. They needed those three points, especially after that tough loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford on Friday.
This win nudged Howe’s team into the top half of the Premier League, with Crystal Palace and Leeds United up next. But, let's be real, their play didn't exactly inspire confidence that they've turned things around away from home.
Eddie Howe shared his thoughts on Newcastle United’s win over Burnley. What’s the answer to their away game struggles? Howe thinks it boils down to ‘confidence.’
“I think we've been close before. I feel we're headed in the right direction when you look at how we’re playing, Howe said as he talked about his team’s showing.
“If you keep playing well, you’ll win. Manchester United is a good example. I don’t think we played badly, and we had chances to get more from the game. We didn't score, but we played well overall.
“I think we will win games because of the kind of play that we have, and that’s what happened. We're not feeling super confident right now, which is clear.
“But, I think it’s mostly a confidence thing. And the only way to fix that is to win the next game.”
Howe said this: “It was a huge win for us. I don't think it matters how we got it. We just needed to get it.
“We started really strong, knowing how crucial this game was. I can’t say enough about how the players fought through it.
“That second half was significant for us. We had to make it.
“I give the players credit for finishing the game and showing the team's character.”
Newcastle United now has a few days to chill after the win at Turf Moor before heading back to Tyneside for four home games in a row. First up is Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Sunday. After that, they’re up against Daniel Farke’s Leeds United at St. James’ Park on Wednesday, January 7.
Then, they’ve got two cup games against Premier League teams. They’re hosting Bournemouth in the FA Cup and then playing the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final against Manchester City.
EDDIE HOWE ADDRESSES ALAN SHEARER’S COMMENTS BEFORE TONIGHT’S MAJOR KICKOFF AT BURNLEY
Alan Shearer sets a massive challenge for Newcastle United: win the next four games to ignite their 2026 Premier League campaign.
Before tonight's game against Burnley, Alan Shearer told Newcastle United what he wants to see in the next month.
Newcastle is currently 14th in the Premier League, which isn't good enough, but there's still a lot of the season left.
Even though Eddie Howe isn't in danger of losing his job, people are still worried about how the team is playing.
Another loss at Burnley on Tuesday would really increase the pressure. Alan Shearer thinks this game could be the start of something better.
Newcastle United Needs to Win Their Next Four Games
On Match of the Day, the Newcastle United legend sounded positive about the team's next few games and & thinks this could turn their season around.
He said, Yes, this could change things. A few weeks ago, everyone thought Fulham would get demoted, but they've won three straight games, and & now they're in the top half.
Newcastle needs to do that. Their next four games are against Burnley, Palace, Leeds, and Wolves. They have a good chance to win some.
These four league games are part of a busy January for Newcastle, with important Champions League matches against PSV Eindhoven and PSG and an FA Cup game against Bournemouth, as well as the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final versus Man City.
This period of games could really make or break Newcastle's season.
He should stay until the end of the season so everyone can make a better decision instead of rushing into anything. Hopefully, there will be more choices to replace him by the summer.
Where Newcastle Could Be If They Win
Let's say Newcastle wins all four of their games. It might happen, but those 12 points might just push Newcastle to just outside the top five or six in the league.
Aston Villa could get no points during that time and still be ahead of Newcastle before they play each other at the end of January. That shows how far apart Newcastle and Aston Villa are this season.
Still, getting to 35 points before the end of next month would really help Newcastle. The teams above them will probably also get points, so Newcastle might not move up the table much, but it's important for them to catch up to their rivals soon.
