MOTM for me today. Did all of the dirty work superbly.

Same, he had Rice on a plate

[Theregulars]

Great in the tackle today; executed the old reach around a few times to perfection 

[Yorkie]

Mind some whoppers are running out of excuses for Howe, apparently. 

[Nobody]

He's massively underrated on here like.

[NWMag]

Really good today, some lovely touches on the ball which impressed me. Fair play to him hope he keeps it up

[AyeDubbleYoo]

Watched him closely in the warmup and he looks brilliant on the ball. 

[CPL]

He influences games more than Tonali in the current set up.

He was very good today, did well against Chelsea B too so fair play. He can be good and important, but theres also been tons of times when he’s been shocking. He’s a very functional cog in the system when he’s at his best even if somewhat limited in other areas of his game.

Howe himself he was running on empty the end of last season, probably carrying knocks and general fatigue. He’s starting to look like his old self with rest and rotation.

Well done lad, great performance, keep it up!!! Very happy for Longstaff, and it's just better when we have a Geordie in the team.

He’s a confidence player too and this will do him the world of good. Getting some love from the home crowd will help too.

He was very good today.

 

However, I want to see Tonali in this same team with the two Joe's and Gordon and Tino on his side before I can fully agree with this.

[Pablo123]

Really pleased for him. Thought he was excellent today 

[midds]

Yeah he was really good today. The way the game developed played perfectly for him and allowed him to do all of the things he's good at, the physical stuff, chasing, closing down spaces, energy and just being a nuisance in general is his perfect role. His limitations were never exposed and he was never asked to be creative in possession as the early goal set up the nature and tempo of the last 80 minutes. He was great, fair play, I'm never going to be his biggest fan but he stepped up today and delivered the performance he needed to
