CRAIG HOPE: Gutsy win shows Eddie Howe is stamping his authority on Newcastle team

Daily Mail  

The arrival of money was never going to bring about a new era of normality at Newcastle United. It started with Eddie Howe confirming the squad would jet off for a training camp in Saudi Arabia this week. The head coach was very quickly fielding questions on human rights and whether he would be shaking hands with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, in between bouncers about his return of one win in 10 matches and failed pursuit of key transfer targets. Newcastle's gutsy performance on Saturday shows the impact Eddie Howe is having By tea-time, news was landing of Newcastle’s former owner, Mike Ashley, suing one of the current custodians, Amanda Staveley, over a £10million loan she used to help complete the takeover. Marcelo Bielsa says he has ‘doubts’ about striker Patrick Bamford returning from injury for their next game at Aston Villa on February 9, and the programme notes of managing director Angus Kinnear suggested new signings will not be forthcoming.
