Newcastle boss Howe wary of Bournemouth trip: They've good players

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe says they're wary going to Bournemouth tomorrow.

The Magpies currently sit sixth in the Premier League table, with Bournemouth in the relegation zone.

Howe said, “I think Andoni (Iraola) is a very good manager.

“I've watched Bournemouth a lot in the build-up to this game. I think their set up is good.

“They've got good players. They've invested a lot of money in the summer in their squad.

“So I think we know we're going to be in for a tough game.

“I've got a lot of experience at that stadium and the Vitality is a very difficult place to go.

“For us, we need to make sure we've recovered from Dortmund physically and mentally, go again and make sure we're ready for a tough game."

On his latest return to Dean Court, Howe added: "I hope the focus is always on the players, on our performance and how well we can approach the game.

“That is always my wish, it's never about me. Our only focus is to try and win."
