Newcastle boss Howe: Fit-again Willock huge player for us

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe is delighted with the form of Joe Willock.

Willock faces former club Arsenal tomorrow on the back of scoring in the Carabao Cup win at Manchester United in midweek.

Howe said, "I think Joe deserves a lot of credit for his performance because his athleticism, his speed and his general game was there after a long absence.

"He was making runs from the first minute.

"He is a huge player for us, I am so glad he scored. That would have done him the world of good."
