Eddie Howe on raised expectations regarding Newcastle United... nufc
It isn’t often that managers get appointed mid-season when a team is doing well.at the bottom of the table with five points from the opening eleven Premier League matches and looking certainties for relegation. Having just been taken over by an ambitious moneyed consortium, this would be a particularly bad time to go down, considering just how far it would set back the plans to turn NUFC into a competitive football club once again.
Howe says that he and his players accepts this is a challenge, dealing with the raised expectations, but they aren’t ‘scared’ of that, they all know ‘it comes with the territory’ atIn the past, we have seen plenty of credible players sign for Newcastle but then maybe intimidated by the challenge of playing for NUFC, particularly at home.
‘It’s a good question,’ he says, when presented with the subject of expectation. ‘It doesn’t intimidate me, but it is potentially a challenge for us – how we adapt to that pressure. We’re not scared of that, we know it comes with the territory. But I think expectations have gone up.
