Newcastle 1 Atalanta 0 - Boost for Eddie Howe and plenty positives

Newcastle 1 Atalanta 0 – Boost for Eddie Howe and plenty positivesFair to say that not many fans would have guessed the starting eleven and also fair to say that even fewer of those supporters paying to watch the game, would have selected this team.With the Athletic Bilbao match kicking off only 17 hours after tonight’s game would end, fans wondering how Eddie How would use his squad.

Around the 20-25 minute mark, Trippier and then Targett were the victims of what looked really poor challenges. Both needed quite lengthy treatment on the pitch before gingerly walking off. Thankfully both able to continue but this looking a quite physical match, which Eddie Howe won’t mind, so long as it doesn’t result in injuries.

No changes at half-time and only a couple of minutes after the break, clever play from Anderson saw him create space on the edge of the box and his low left foot curling shot bringing a good save from the Atalanta keeper. Whisper it but I thought the longer the game went on, Chris Wood was linking play up well and played in teammates a couple of times with clever passes, one of those set up Targett who should have had a penalty as his shirt was pulled but he still got his shot off from not a great angle. The keeper making himself big and beating it away.
