Howe backs Postecoglou amid Forest pressure



Newcastle manager Eddie Howe comments on the pressure Ange Postecoglou is facing at Nottingham Forest and the fragility of the managerial job.


“No amount of success previously can take you out of that firing line...” 


Newcastle United's manager Eddie Howe confirmed that Tino Livramento will be out for approximately eight weeks due to a knee ligament injury sustained during the 2-1 loss to Arsenal last weekend. Livramento was taken off the field on a stretcher after landing awkwardly from an aerial duel.


Howe expressed relief that the diagnosis wasn't more severe, stating, “He went to see a specialist, and the scan initially looked better than we thought it was.” Kieran Trippier, a 35-year-old veteran, will likely fill in for Livramento during his absence, bringing experience and quality to the squad.


“He went to see a specialist a couple of days ago as the scan initially looked better than we thought it was,” Howe told reporters ahead of Sunday's home game against Nottingham Forest.


“He has confirmed it is looking like an eight-week injury, which is a blow given our schedule, but it is looking better than what we initially feared,” Howe added.




Newcastle Turns to Experienced Kieran 
Trippier to Fill Void Left by Tino Livramento's Injury

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe confirmed that Kieran Trippier will likely fill in for the injured Tino Livramento, who is expected to be out for eight weeks. Trippier's experience and quality will be crucial in stabilizing the defense during Livramento's absence. Despite the challenging schedule with three competitions, Howe is confident in Trippier's ability to adapt and perform well.


“That is the beauty of the squad and the strength of the squad we have, which will make a difference for us. We have real depth in the strength of the defensive areas,” Howe added.


“Losing Tino is a big blow for us with his athleticism and quality, but I have spoken many times about the role Kieran plays and his experience and quality he brings to the squad.”


Newcastle United's new signing, Yoane Wissa, is expected to return to the pitch after the international break, with a potential return date of October 18 against Brighton. This is a blow to Newcastle, as Wissa has been out for several weeks due to a knee injury sustained while on international duty with DR Congo. The striker has yet to make his debut for Newcastle, despite joining from Brentford over the summer transfer window.




Wissa's recovery timeline has been extended, and he'll likely miss at least five matches in all competitions. This puts pressure on Newcastle's squad depth, particularly with a congested run of fixtures ahead. Newcastle's manager, Eddie Howe, has expressed frustration over the injury, but is hopeful that Wissa will be fit and available for the crucial winter months.


“We've got a few clicks to go but I will always be saying that regardless of how well we are playing,” Howe said.


“We are finding our rhythm, we are a new team and any change takes time to absorb but I am confident we can continue to get better.”


Eddie Howe Committed to Newcastle Amid Manchester United Speculation

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has denied reports linking him to the Manchester United job, affirming his commitment to the Magpies. Despite speculation surrounding Manchester United's current situation, Howe emphasized his focus on improving Newcastle's performance and securing a successful future for the club. With a tough run of fixtures ahead, Howe's priority remains the team he's built and nurtured, and he seems determined to silence any doubts about his loyalty.


“My commitment is that I am all in. I am 100% here and always have been,” he said.


“My family are still here and we are fighting every day to make a success of what we are doing. The season ahead could be a wonderful thing and that is what I want to focus on.”


Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe believes the fragility of the managerial job is evident in Ange Postecoglou's situation at Nottingham Forest. Postecoglou's Forest side has yet to secure a win under his leadership, and they face Newcastle United on Sunday. Despite the pressure, Postecoglou remains unfazed, emphasizing the need for his team to secure victories to change the narrative.




“No amount of success previously can take you out of that firing line,” Howe said.


“We are all subjected to the same forces and dictated to by results. In any moment, good or bad, you have to be yourself and that is what Ange is.”
