Howe Explains Two Injuries – Praises Defender



Newcastle head coach Eddie Howe has given his press conference for the game tomorrow in West London at Fulham.

We are coming off one win and a draw, so we are hoping we can get the win at Craven Cottage tomorrow.

This is some of what Howe has said in his press conference:

On Tino and Miggy injuries:

“Tino’s was quite strange really as the ball’s just hit his ankle as he’s gone to plant it on the floor and he’s twisted it to an uncomfortable angle but thankfully it’s not as serious as it could have been.”

“Miggy on crossing the ball got his studs caught in the turf and just tweaked his knee slightly. Again, not a serious injury but enough to keep him out for a few weeks.”

On Dan Burn’s excellent performance at center-back:

“I liked a lot about his performance against Everton. I thought he was very, very good.”

“He’s a big presence in our back line anyway but I thought he did really well aerially against two tough opponents.”

“On the floor, having played full-back for a long period of time, when you come inside the spaces are a bit more condensed so I thought he excelled in that area.”

On Newcastle’s lack of consistency:

“I see a lot of teams searching for consistency and searching for a run of victories that will catapult them to where they want to be and we’re one of those teams.”

“Everyone is finding that consistency hard to find so it’s up to us to grab that.”

We played well against Everton and should have won the game but conceded a penalty in the 88th minute and dropped 2 points.

We can win this game tomorrow – if we put in another performance like we did against the Toffees.
