I didn't see the game but I'm going to guess that Newcastle exploited the space behind our fullbacks by setting up a mid block and pressing only when we entered their half.
I think Ange needs to find a way to prevent this space.from being exploited. If he's going to continue playing with inverted fullbacks high then the 6 needs to be able to sprint back between the CBs and allow them to split and close out the space where the fullbacks should be.
