Harvey Barnes changed what was already a bonkers game for Newcastle, but so too did Kalvin Phillips for West Ham. It was a tale of two substitutes.
Lascelles’ replacement Emile Krafth was at fault for Michail Antonio’s equaliser for West Ham, as he played the striker onside from Lucas Paqueta’s ball over the top of the defence, which at that point featured Dan Burn alongside Fabian Schar at its heart. A lack of speed is always going to be a problem for that duo; particularly against West Ham; particularly, particularly against West Ham on a good day like this.
Newcastle wouldn’t have won this game without Barnes, and therefore without Almiron’s injury, and West Ham probably wouldn’t have lost it, they may even have won it, had David Moyes not handed Phillips another damaging cameo. It felt like a game Howe needed to win, not necessarily because his job is imminently under threat – the Newcastle chiefs have consistently backed him through adversity – but because of that now bulging injury list and how that may affect their hopes of European football with the games coming thick and fast until the end of the season.
Gareth Southgate has revealed that Arsenal defender Ben White has made it clear he doesn’t “want to be considered for England squads at this time”.
