Two years after a top-four finish and the return of Champions League football to St James’ Park, Eddie Howe appeared to be the man to bring the good times back to Newcastle United. Fast free-flowing football was the order of the day and last season only Manchester City scored more than the 85 goals from Howe’s side.

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe described Crystal Palace’s added-time equaliser at Selhurst Park as an “absolutely devastating blow”.Daniel Munoz struck in the 93rd minute to secure a 1-1 draw that lifts Palace out of the relegation zone after a Marc Guehi own-goal had given the visitors the lead against the run of play.

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe says "anything is possible" when it comes to the conundrum of Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali playing together. Tonali was a £55m signing from AC Milan during the summer of 2023 but has started only four Premier League games since returning from a 10-month football ban at the end of August.
