Newcastle boss Howe: Solanke can play for England

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe admits he's a fan of Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke

Newcastle host the Cherries on Saturday.

Howe said: "I think he can play international football for sure. I've watched a lot of him this year and he's impressed me every time I've seen him."

He also stated: As you say, new manager and his methods are really strong, really visible with how they play and I think we felt that in the away game against us. Since that win, I thought they've had some really good results, cumulating really big matches. They have some direct threats. we have to play better than the first game.

"We are on a good run of form; we won last week. We are chasing that winning feeling, and however we get there we will accept it, it is something we are looking to do again this weekend."
