Eddie Howe, manager of Newcastle United, admits.
That they are faced with an incredible number of player injuries. A level that has never been encountered before during his life as a coach. Until losing to Spurs 1-4 on Sunday. And is in a difficult situation for the game with AC Milan that will decide whether to stay or leave the UEFA Champions League this season.
“We are not at our best in terms of physicality. As you can see,” Howe revealed after Newcastle lost in the Premier League two games in a row. “The kids have given everything. But it’s still not enough.”
“If I just complain I would have to blame it on fatigue… We still have a game on Wednesday. And games like this are what we need this season.”
“The Champions League is always a special tournament. But it also brings with it a huge number of games. Hopefully we will have enough players for the game. But with the number of injured players we have I think we’re in worse trouble than any team I can remember.”
“Having to use the same group of players on the field for all 5 matches is difficult. But we still have light at the end of the tunnel with Callum Wilson and Sean Longstaff back, both key players for us. And always do well when on the field.”
For Newcastle, besides having to beat Milan to get one place on Wednesday.
Still have to hope that Paris Saint-Germain cannot beat Borussia Dortmund at the same time. As they now have only 5 points in hand, 2 points behind PSG.
And even though Wilson and Longstaff have recovered from their injuries, there are still many missing including Nick Pope, Jacob Murphy, Dan Byrne, Elliott Anderson, Sven Baugh. Taman, Joe Willock, Harvey Barnes, Javier Manquillo, Matt Targett and Sandro Tonali (ban)
