Newcastle United's 4-2-3-1 tactical system relies on double defensive midfielders to intercept and conduct the ball in the middle, while wingers run to stretch the pitch. However, the absence of Joelinton and Dan Burn has led to a decline in midfield toughness and the team's ability to defend aerial balls at the back.
