How much will Howe rotate? - Qarabag preview, Man City positives and huge run of home games

Newcastle were narrowly beaten 2-1 at the Etihad, but this felt very different to the usual trip to Man City. Ed and Ollie break down Newcastle’s most competitive performance there in years, the key refereeing controversies, and what Eddie Howe had to say about the display and brutal schedule after that mammoth Qarabag trip.

They dig into the positives (Lewis Hall’s form, Ramsey growing into midfield, centre-backs handling Haaland) and the lingering concerns (Nick Pope’s wobble, Elanga’s end product, Botman’s injuries). There’s a full round-up of the Premier League weekend and what it means for the race for Europe, plus this week’s poll on where Woltemade actually fits in Howe’s system.

Finally, the lads look ahead to the Qarabag second leg at St James’ Park: how seriously will Howe take it at 6-1 up, who needs a rest, and which youngsters might get their chance in front of a home European crowd?
