Newcastle seems to have lost their soul in the last few weeks and not only have they lost twice but they have also only won twice in the last 5 matches. Obviously this is not a good result when competition is getting tighter and each team will take advantage of the bad conditions of a team's performance to get a better place in the standings.
Newcastle United have not lost their soul; thats just what they are, inconsistent!
The players are not good enough to challenge for top places; and with an injury crisis already in place; the performance from Newcastle United will continue to be inconsistent. The coach is doing greatly with the players at his disposals and i can tell you for a fact that this is not the best of the Newcastle United side.
Even though Newcastle only won 2 of their last 5 matches but yes, at least you can see which teams Newcastle managed to beat in those 2 wins. Because after all, Newcastle got these two wins by beating Manchester United and Chelsea and yes, at least two teams These are the two top teams in the Premier League. Even though indeed, at this moment Manchester United and Chelsea also experiencing a decline in performance, but I guess it is still a good result for Newcastle.
After all, at this moment at least Newcastle is not in stable performance but even so, Newcastle is still in the top 7 positions in the Premier League standings this moment. So yes, with this result, I think Newcastle still has a good result in a situation where the team is not completely good too.
