Eddie Howe, motivation and Newcastle United nufc
Glenn Roeder, Chris Hughton and Eddie Howe all have more in common with each other than you might think.Whilst all three had fairly decent careers as defendersAll three are quiet and unassuming characters.However, here’s the one that is relevant to this article.Roeder and Hughton did well wherever they went, for a year or so, then performance dropped off.
Of course, when you have the gall to suggest something like this, regardless of how accurate it may be, there are always going to be a few detractors, who, as is now fashionable, “take offence”. We’ve been on such a phenomenal high this season, the mere thought that we might have “peaked” will seem abhorrent to most, but if the last couple of games have shown us anything, it’s that we are still some way from being the finished article, and this little fixture list blip of a reality check may be just what we need to get us to focus a bit more on the next couple of months.
Then we have a few who are not quite so top notch, but who with Howe’s motivational skills, are playing fairly consistent pseudo-top-notch football. The right motivation is like a squirt of Nitrous Oxide. It will give you a power boost but it is only temporary, and too much will burn out your engine.
When you are coming up against a team that has fielded a bench just shy of 350 million quid, you have to have all your ducks AND your planets in a row to stand any chance of getting a result.I think what we have achieved here is phenomenal and I’m sure there are a few more wins still to come, I just wouldn’t be too disappointed if, having sprinted off the line at the beginning, we have a little hiccup in the middle.Let’s not allocate too much importance to the Man City game.
