Eddie Howe's Scathing Newcastle United Verdict After 3-1 Defeat to West Ham United

Newcastle United's poor away form continued with their eighth consecutive Premier League loss on the road, as manager Eddie Howe cited mental unpreparedness.

  • On November 2, 2025, Newcastle United lost 3-1 at the London Stadium to West Ham United, and Eddie Howe said his side were not where they "needed to be mentally".
  • Facing ongoing away struggles, Newcastle United have now gone eight Premier League away games without a win after heavy midweek rotation following the Carabao Cup win over Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday.
  • Jacob Murphy opened the scoring early, but Newcastle trailed 2-1 at half-time after a Lucas Paquetá strike and a Sven Botman own goal, with Tomáš Souček sealing the 3-1 win late on.
  • Howe responded with a half-time triple substitution, but those changes involving Nick Woltemade, Anthony Gordon, and Fabian Schär failed to alter the game as he admitted he 'almost could have taken anyone off.'
  • Looking ahead, Newcastle will try to learn from the defeat after Howe said, `I don't think it looked like a Newcastle team that we've seen in recent seasons,` Howe told a news conference, in an effort to turn their current run of games without an away win around.
