Introduction to Newcastle United Podcast
00:00:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hello and welcome to the Newcastle United Podcast, part of GSPN. My name's Jo so I'll be hosting today and we're going to be talking about the fantastic win against Ipswich. Let's finally put to bear a few of our ah away issues, let's say, this season. But we've got lots of positivity to talk about today. So I'll introduce my co-hosts, co-whatevers first.
Ian's Tech Troubles and Festive Mood
00:00:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
First of all, we've got Ian. We can't see him, but we can hear him. How are you doing, dude?
00:00:39
Iain Mackay the Noo
I am doing okay apart from electronically in which case I'm doing terribly because Not only is a microphone broken so much, I've got to virtually put it in my mouth to be able to be heard, but my camera's gone on my laptop as well.
00:00:51
Iain Mackay the Noo
So perhaps the last time I'm involved with this particular technological combo, who knows?
00:00:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, you never know.
00:01:00
Iain Mackay the Noo
It's not getting me down though.
00:01:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
It can't get you down.
00:01:01
Iain Mackay the Noo
Not after yesterday's game, it's not getting me down.
00:01:05
Nicola Pringle-Adams
It's Christmas.
00:01:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
And you never know, it is very close to Christmas, but Santa might get you a new microphone and now a new camera.
00:01:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
You never and know. um Speak to the wife. um So anyway, we also have, who we can also see is my lovely pal, Nick. How are you doing, chick?
00:01:22
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Hello, I am very good. Thank you.
00:01:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Happy days. Right. Let's get on it.
Jacob Murphy's Right-Wing Performance
00:01:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Let's get into it, yeah.
00:01:28
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Let's get into it.
00:01:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
So maybe me being me, I've just kind of set them up and told them that I'm going to start on my boy Murphy.
00:01:37
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Wonderful.
00:01:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
Come on, let's talk about my boy Murphy. Should we have a few minutes on him? Because I could have a few minutes on him talking about him before we start Ian, by the way.
00:01:46
Iain Mackay the Noo
I thought that was Fabian Shaw.
00:01:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:01:48
Iain Mackay the Noo
Sorry, Nick and Murphy as well.
00:01:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's a whole other subject and that's not for the PGGSPN pod either.
00:01:54
Iain Mackay the Noo
Okay, sorry.
00:01:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
So moving back to Murphy, what I would like to say is, don't laugh at me too much, but is Murphy our right wing solution?
00:02:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
I will joke by saying permanently, obviously a joke. But is he now our temporary solution? Because let's get real. All jokes aside on this guy, he's absolutely smashing it. He's in the form of his life. He's contributing to goals. He's getting goals.
00:02:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
he's performing amazingly on the right wing so you guys know how much I love him so I'm obviously gonna be all in for him just staying on the right for the rest of the season I've got to be honest I'm not saying we shouldn't buy anyone by the way I'm not gonna go ridiculous but I also won't be as sad now that he's hit this form if we don't happen to get this amazing right wing and that we've all been craving all season so first of all Nick I'll come to you and what's your thoughts on probably more reasonable thoughts on Murphy on the right
00:02:51
Nicola Pringle-Adams
um So my, ah look, he obviously does a fantastic
Long-term Right-Wing Solutions?
00:02:56
Nicola Pringle-Adams
job, doesn't he? I don't think he has been in a, obviously he's obviously hit his form and he is looking really confident and almost like he's sort of back in his prime, if you like, and if he ever has been in his prime.
00:03:10
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Joe, don't kill me.
00:03:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
This is fine, it's fine.
00:03:11
Nicola Pringle-Adams
um but but yeah But he is looking really confident and really comfortable.
00:03:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
but
00:03:16
Nicola Pringle-Adams
um And it does look as though Eddie has found a very good balance of him on the right. And it does seem to be answering a lot of questions and and also seems to be hitting teams with things that they can't handle.
00:03:30
Nicola Pringle-Adams
um Going forward and in the future, I do think it's still a position that needs investment. I don't think, I feel really bad saying in this. I don't think he's a player that I can see playing for as long-term, but right now, um he's doing a job and he's doing it well.
00:03:48
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Please don't hate me.
00:03:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't hate you.
00:03:50
Nicola Pringle-Adams
That's just my personal preference. I still think he makes, obviously I know every player does and maybe I'm just really highly critical, but I do think he does still make quite loosey-goosey mistakes here and there.
00:03:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's fine.
00:04:00
Nicola Pringle-Adams
which can kind of be clouded by when he does it great things like yesterday. um And the Leicester game obviously he scored two goals, but in that game he made a few mistakes, which I do think obviously clouds that a little bit.
00:04:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:04:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:04:12
Nicola Pringle-Adams
um That's my personal opinion, which people will disagree with and that's fine, but that's what I think.
00:04:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh.
00:04:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's all right. I mean, I will admit I'm probably more in the Murphy camp than all of the fan base.
00:04:20
Iain Mackay the Noo
Thank you.
00:04:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
I appreciate that. So like they're all going to be other Murphy supporters. I'm not the only one, but I do appreciate everyone. All other people might have a more reasonable approach to the thinking.
00:04:31
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:04:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
And I just think he's an excellent squad player. So don't get me wrong, right? I don't think he is a permanent long-term solution, but I think he is a bit of a solution for this season.
00:04:37
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:04:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
If we can keep him in this form for this season, fantastic he's doing exactly what we need on the right wing at this moment so yeah that that's all I kind of mean by it but don't worry I do appreciate sometimes my kind of level of reasonable thinking on Murphy is a bit higher than others so it's fine it's fine um so Ian can you give us a bit more reasonable stuff or do you love Murphy as much as me
00:05:00
Iain Mackay the Noo
ah but But no, I think Murphy's ah he's a real character, isn't he?
Murphy's Role and Potential
00:05:04
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Hmm.
00:05:04
Iain Mackay the Noo
um ah If you watch the goal celebrations, either when somebody else has scored or when he's scored, the team love him.
00:05:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
yes
00:05:12
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:05:12
Iain Mackay the Noo
He's a real integral part of that team and they all seem to get on with him. um I think he is in one of his purple patches at the moment and I think that's down to confidence.
00:05:25
Iain Mackay the Noo
um These next three games, which we're going to look at in the last part, are or a tougher set of three games. If he could be doing this scoring and assisting every half he turns out for us during those games, then yeah, maybe he is a solution till the summer, so we don't have to go spend over the top. But I do think that his fabulous returns in terms of goals and c assists are masking. He's still quite wasteful with the ball.
00:05:57
Iain Mackay the Noo
He sealed sometimes as a misplaced pass or it's overrun or not all of the time.
00:06:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:06:03
Iain Mackay the Noo
He, that, that assist for EZAC's Patrick goal yesterday was sublime. I wish, I believe that it really meant it.
00:06:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
It was.
00:06:12
Nicola Pringle-Adams
yeah
00:06:12
Iain Mackay the Noo
Um, but you know, he wasn't looking and it was a back deal.
00:06:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
He meant it, come on.
00:06:17
Iain Mackay the Noo
He can't possibly have meant it, but it looked absolutely super ah Jacob.
00:06:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, you know what, right? This is where... Psh!
00:06:22
Nicola Pringle-Adams
think mr
00:06:23
Iain Mackay the Noo
He's a fantastic squad player.
00:06:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Psh! Psh!
00:06:25
Iain Mackay the Noo
He's a fantastic squad player.
00:06:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
Psh!
00:06:27
Iain Mackay the Noo
But I don't think that he has the innate ability of Anthony Gordon, or an Isaac, or a Tenali, or a Gamarish, or a Joe Linton, who we think are long-term first-team players.
00:06:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
Psh! Psh! Psh! Psh! Psh! Psh! Psh! I agree.
00:06:38
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:06:41
Iain Mackay the Noo
So we should be looking to upgrade down that right-hand side.
00:06:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:06:45
Iain Mackay the Noo
But if Murphy can hit his peaks until we've done that, then I'm all for it.
00:06:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:06:50
Iain Mackay the Noo
And ah as a guy in the squad, I think he's <unk> great. I mean, he's funny, isn't he? He plays a game with his heart on his sleeve.
00:06:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:06:59
Iain Mackay the Noo
You see him laughing and smiling and waving goodbye to Southampton centre halves that have been sent off. He's a funny, funny man.
00:07:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
He's an all-rounder, isn't he?
00:07:07
Iain Mackay the Noo
So yeah, I'm delighted that he's doing well.
00:07:08
Nicola Pringle-Adams
The thing is with Jacob Murphy is as well is you know how much he loves the club.
Murphy's Passion for the Club
00:07:14
Nicola Pringle-Adams
So I always think back to when, I can't remember if it was the PSG game last year against, um, in the Champions League and he was getting interviewed and I think it was obviously after the game.
00:07:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:24
Nicola Pringle-Adams
It must've been that one because we absolutely battered them, but he was visibly really crying and telling like the interviewer that how much he loved the club and he loved the fans. And I know it's not all about that. Um,
00:07:34
Nicola Pringle-Adams
But to me, like I want people in the team that absolutely love the badge and love what we're about.
00:07:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:41
Nicola Pringle-Adams
um So ah yeah, as Ian says, he is very wasteful and does make mistakes. But um right now and currently, if he can just put that passion into his football, then off we go.
00:07:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:51
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Off we go.
00:07:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
Although, I've got to be honest with you guys, but of probably about 50% of why I love Murphy is exactly what you've just said, by the way, Nick. So you literally have pinpointed why I love him and why a lot of people are going to love him because he is, he's just Newcastle through and through.
00:08:06
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:08:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
I know he wasn't born here, but he's you know, he's been a Toon fan since he was a kid. and and i it's It is amazing though, isn't it? To see him, he looks genuinely so happy.
00:08:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
I mean, can you remember when he scored that goal against Spurs last season, man? In that biggest, widest smile you'll ever see any player just sheer, just joy.
00:08:23
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:08:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
And so yeah, as I say, literally a good 50% of why I like him is down to that. I'm fully aware that he's not an Anthony Gordon, by the way. But I'm just going to say, Ian, by the way, on that whole, he didn't mean a thing.
00:08:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
If Gordon had made that pass, would Gordon have meant it? I reckon people would have said Gordon meant it just because it was Anthony Gordon.
00:08:40
Iain Mackay the Noo
Oh, I think, I think, no, no, no, to get me, I mean, he can't, he played it completely blind and, and EZAC said afterwards that, yeah, it was a great assist.
00:08:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm sticking up from...
00:08:49
Iain Mackay the Noo
I was screaming for the ball behind him for about, for what all the time he's doing his little ring around EZAC was screaming for it. So no, it's a, it's an educated guess ball and it worked absolutely perfectly.
00:09:02
Nicola Pringle-Adams
We'll take it.
00:09:02
Iain Mackay the Noo
Although I think, I think EZAC made it look even better by the way he controlled it and put it in.
00:09:08
Nicola Pringle-Adams
He did.
00:09:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
He did very well, yeah.
00:09:09
Iain Mackay the Noo
One thing which we haven't mentioned, by the way, Jacob Murphy, what a right foot he's got.
00:09:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
I agree.
00:09:15
Iain Mackay the Noo
We saw that in that game against Tottenham, but the way that ball went in off the bar, last week's second goal against Leicester, he can put his laces through with his right foot.
00:09:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
a Bullet.
00:09:18
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:09:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:09:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yep.
00:09:25
Iain Mackay the Noo
His left foot is a slightly more wayward, um but he's super accurate with his right foot and it' it's really hard, really impressive.
00:09:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, that's a bullet, wasn't it?
00:09:32
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Yeah.
00:09:33
Iain Mackay the Noo
um ah Yeah, no, I'm but i'm a fan. I'm a fan, I'm not i'm not disappointed if Murphy's in the first team now and I think I was earlier in the season because he's performed so well.
00:09:44
Nicola Pringle-Adams
I was the same. Yeah, I was the same.
00:09:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, you see, we've talked a good 10 minutes on Murphy, so it just shows really, we have got a lot to say on the boy, not just me.
00:09:54
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Well, yeah.
00:09:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Um, you see, but anyway, I'll tell you what, because we have spent a bit more time talking about Murphy, um, Ian, I'll come to you for our first ad and then we can move on to the rest of our team and a lot of other stuff that we loved about the game.
00:10:09
Iain Mackay the Noo

00:11:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
I still need to clip those for socials because honestly, the way you guys did it was unbelievable. So I'm going to do a clip of how you should do it, as in you and Michael.
00:11:16
Nicola Pringle-Adams
Me and Jo.
00:11:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, you shouldn't do it. Me and Nick, even though really on me because Nick had to really rescue it. So obviously had a laugh and fit couldn't breathe.
