Eddie Howe asking Newcastle United fans to hold any frustrations until after the final whistle.

Eddie Howe asked at his press conference about some Newcastle United fans having booed the decision to sub Sandro Tonali in each of the last two matches:

“Firstly, I love that the supporters regard Sandro in the highest esteem as I do.

“The only thing I would ask, is that any frustrations towards me are reflected after the match, rather than in the moment.

“That makes it difficult for the players coming onto the pitch.

“Not that it should affect their performance… but it creates an element of doubt.

“The difficult decision I have in midfield is having three outstanding players starting the game.

“When you are losing, you try to make changes that you feel can help, without leaving it too late as well.

“There is a feeling that when you give a player 10 minutes, they don’t really get into the game and find their rhythm.

“So it is a delicate balance.

“To do that, I have to take a wide player off, or a midfield player off, or both.

“I am a manager that likes to make early changes.

“I have experience and history behind that.

“When you look at our team, it is a difficult decision.

“Ultimately, I have judged it off goals and creativity and trying to get as many attacking players in the team as I can.

“Looking at the team, I don’t see anything that is drastically wrong.
