‘How safe do you feel Eddie Howe is at Newcastle United?’

“Well, unless something remarkable and unforeseen happens I would say 100% safe.

“I don’t think anyone could have done any better and I think he has been somewhat let down by Newcastle’s recruitment strategy.

“They spent all summer focusing on a deal for Crystal Palace’s England defender Marc Guehi, which they eventually failed to do, while taking their eye off the ball for a reliable understudy to striker Alexander Isak and more creation on the right flank.
