The Newcastle manager has no trouble telling his present group that if they don’t perform, there are choices vying for their spot on the field. There is fierce competition for spots in this squad right now, which is exactly what Howe wants.
At the end, Howe told Sky Sports, “I wasn’t totally satisfied, especially with the last 25 minutes and a half.” “The guys that are playing know that they have to give it their all, and we have excellent players on the bench.
“We have the power to make those adjustments if you don’t perform to the appropriate standards. You have to give the players credit; they displayed their abilities.
Howe quickly changed his mind about some of the pre-match decisions he had made following yet another dull opening to a top tier contest. Along with Joe Willock, Barnes and Tonali were inserted, and they finally helped Newcastle win the match.
After yet another boring start to a top-tier encounter, Howe promptly reversed some of the pre-match selections he had made. Barnes and Tonali were added, along with Joe Willock, and they ultimately contributed to Newcastle’s victory.
