Arsenal copied that from the Magpies, who did the same thing in the reverse fixture.

Laura Woods has hit back at Newcastle’s Manager as Eddie Howe complained about Arsenal wasting time in their match yesterday.

The Gunners were in control of the game for the entirety of the fixture and frustrated Newcastle United in the second half. The North London club secured a 2-0 win to remain in the hunt for the title race.

Mikel Arteta’s men copied that from the Magpies, who did the same thing in the reverse fixture.

After Howe’s complaint about Arsenal wasting time, Woods replied to him on Talk Sport:

“Howe was referencing the lack of time the ball was in play – which is a big problem across the league.

“But particularly with Newcastle… this stat has cropped up across social media over the weekend.

“The stat is how long each team spends with the ball in play this season (on average). Newcastle are bottom with 52 per cent.

“Average delay before restarting play… Newcastle are second from bottom. Brentford are bottom of that one.

“Average delay time before goal kicks… Newcastle are bottom with 36.8 minutes.”
