Eddie Howe is adamant that his Newcastle team is a “high-energy,” “high-intensity” club that “wants to keep the ball in play,” responding to criticism that our game strategy has been “falsely reported” by some media outlets.
Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, called us an “annoying” team that likes to squander time and slow down the game during the previous season. Howe has denied similar allegations in the past, but in advance of our trip to Old Trafford today, he was questioned once more over our playing philosophy.

Howe’s response to earlier stories casting doubt on our ability to handle the game and to ten Hag’s jab earlier this year is unambiguous: “If you watched us play, you’d see a different style to the one that was painted.”
See what he said below, where he insisted that some media outlets had reported inaccurate information and that the story would soon be dismantled if these critics saw you in action:
Before we destroyed Manchester United at St. James’ Park, Eddie Howe stated on the Amazon documentary, “If they want a fast game, let’s ******* give it to them.”
Howe has reiterated his defense of his strategies and approach to games here, having silenced 10 Hag that night on Tyneside with inane words. Let’s hope we defeat them once more tonight after the cup final letdown.
