Love Howe and the style of play he has created, but playing the same team game after game has caught up with Newcastle, they're running on empty, desperately need some fresh legs back asap!

Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveThis isn't even Postecoglou's team yet. They are a joy to watch.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 17:19 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023
Tottenham 2-0 Newcastle
Spurs two up at the break, with Son Heung-min setting up both goals.
He's twice taken on and beaten Kieran Trippier, with Destiny Udogie converting the first of the following crosses and Richarlison the second.
Newcastle with a lot of work to do to get back in this match.

Ash: So when does Trippier start getting the same defensive ability criticism as Trent?
J: I'll be honest. Trent Alexander-Arnold would be crucified if he made the errors Trippier is making and gets away with.
Trippier at fault againpublished at 17:15 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023
Tottenham 2-0 Newcastle
Phil McNulty
BBC Sport chief football writer at Tottenham Hotspur StadiumKieran Trippier has been an outstanding figure since signing for Newcastle United but he's having a bad week. He was involved in all three Everton goals in their defeat on Thursday and he allowed Son Heung-min to skip around him far too easily there.
Long way back for Newcastle here.

Spurs almost get number three. Son Heung-min, the standout player of the first half runs with the ball 40 yards at the heart of the Newcastle defence.
He plays it wide left to Dejan Kulusevski, the cross then nicks up off Lewis Miley and a diving Richarlison just can't get his head on it for what would have been a third in the first half.
Newcastle need to regroup and need half-time to come.

Speak to anyone that works with or for Spurs and they love Ange. The way he’s lifted the place. It goes beyond immediate results. Got to stick with him.

Spurs can sniff more goals here. Brennan Johnson collects it after Pape Matar Sarr won possession, and produced an angled strike with it clipping the outside of the post.
Straight after, Dejan Kulusevski kicks a shot into the ground and it bounces up into the hands of a diving Martin Dubravka.

This is the fifth time Son Heung-min has provided two assists in a Premier League game, and the first time since doing so against Manchester City in February 2022.

I don’t think Spurs could have asked for a better game given recent form than a very jaded and out of form Newcastle team with more than one eye on Wednesday - it’s just a matter of how many Spurs want…

'This is why Son is playing on the left'published at 17:09 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

Pat Nevin
Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveSo many players are so delighted for Richarlison.
The similarities to the first goal are scary. We know why Son is playing on the left wing.
GOAL - Tottenham 2-0 Newcastlepublished at 37 mins
Richarlison
Superb once more from Spurs captain Son Heung-min. Just like the first goal, he gets the ball on the left, takes on and beats Kieran Trippier, pulls it back from the byeline and this time Richarlison is there to sweep the left-footed finish away at the near post.

@Tim 16.46 Ange needs to be given a season at least, we are heading in the right direction. The terraces are behind Ange, not against him.

Newcastle should do better after Brennan Johnson loses possession 35 yards from his own goal. Alexander Isak gives it to Anthony Gordon, who spins and plays in Miguel Almiron, whose shot lacks the power to properly test Guglielmo Vicario.

Dave, from Belfast (16:55), spot on, sir! Tim, from Oxford (16:46) please stop sounding like a Chelsea fan

Oh no. We've scored first again.

Destiny Udogie is just the second Italian to score for Tottenham in the Premier League...
Nicola Berti is the other one, scoring three times for Spurs in the 1997-98 campaign.

It should be two. Brennan Johnson causes chaos on the right. Richarlison and Son Heung-min are queing up at the back post, but instead Pape Matar Sarr gets there first and screws a horrible side-footer wide of the post.
Spurs would surely have scored again if it had fallen to Richarlison or Son.

Phil McNulty
BBC Sport chief football writer at Tottenham Hotspur StadiumSpurs had been dominating possession without creating too many chances but that was so clinical. Destiny Udogie could not fail to convert Son Heung-min's cross.
Now Spurs. Can you hold a lead?

Another defeat for Tottenham Hotspur then, should learn it's better to concede first.
