A whole lot of Newcastle United fans on Twitter were showing their love for the first video footage to emerge of Eddie Howe taking training.
The former Bournemouth manager was appointed as Steve Bruce’s successor on Monday afternoon and arrived at the club’s Benton training ground at 6.55am Tuesday morning, despite training not starting until later in the afternoon.
Will Howe succeed at Newcastle?
Yes!
No!
Howe knows he has a task on his hands as he admitted during his first interview that ‘there is a lot of work ahead of us‘ to get the Magpies out of the situation they find themselves in.
Something else that appears to have endeared him to the fans is this training footage, in which he can be heard telling the squad, ‘A lot of people are stood still, stood still’s no good‘ during a training drill.
A lot of Newcastle fans on Twitter absolutely loved this latest footage.
What have these Newcastle fans been saying?
“I’m definitely in love”
“Getting stuck right in! Love to see it!!”
“Oh man! I’m drooling”
“This lad has the speed of #stevebruce on FIFA! Cracking scenes.”
“Steve Bruce wouldn’t have done this in a million years. I’m excited about that 30 second video that’s how bad it was”
“Done more in 1 session than Bruce or Jones ever has hahahaha what a joke they were.”
“Imagine Bruce doing this”
“omg this type of content is UNREAL”
Judging by these Newcastle fans, they seem to have been very easily impressed by what Howe has done since arriving on Tyneside and will be hoping this sort of effort at the training ground can translate onto the pitch when they face Brentford next week.
