Newcastle United trophy drought extends to 56 years following a straightforward defeat by Manchester City in the FA Cup quarter-final. Manager Eddie Howe is under scrutiny as Newcastle displayed a lack of belief and energy a stark contrast to their previous season’s success. Despite the support of fans, Newcastle performance was uninspired managing only two shots on goal.
Injuries and transfer missteps have contributed to their decline with signings such as Harvey Barnes failing to deliver. The club’s Saudi owners are eager for improvement but another disappointing transfer window could heighten pressure on all involved. Howe faces a pivotal phase in Newcastle season with hopes of securing a European place fading.
