'A season of turmoil on Tyneside'
- Published
Now the curtain has come down on the 2025-26 Premier League campaign, here is my end-of-season review - with a look back to what I predicted in August.
Prediction: 6th
A season of turmoil on Tyneside, undermined by the 11th-hour sale of Alexander Isak to Liverpool.
Eddie Howe, rightly, will be at the helm to turn things around in what looks like a transitional summer, with Anthony Gordon looking set to leave and speculation continuing to surround Sandro Tonali.
Simply an unsettled, unsatisfying campaign after the glory of Newcastle's first domestic trophy in 70 years when they won the 2025 Carabao Cup.
What I said in August: "Why such an optimistic prediction? Newcastle have a fine side when everyone is fit."
