Writer Olly Hawkins criticized Newcastle United following a flat performance that ended in a 1-0 Premier League defeat against Everton at St James' Park. Everton secured the victory in the second half when Barry scored from a rebound after goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek failed to cleanly handle an effort from George.

Hawkins argues that the team appeared devoid of ideas and lacked leadership, expressing concern that manager Jaissle had no tactical answers. With upcoming fixtures against Fulham, Arsenal, Brighton, Manchester United, and Sunderland, the writer warned that Newcastle currently resembles a side facing a relegation battle rather than European contention.
