Mr Howe spoke about the top quality facilities at the Magpies&#8217; training ground and stressed that all players receive exceptional care. The manager remained calm regarding Slott&#8217;s insinuations and refused to get involved in the controversy, but praised his coaching team after Isak made the decision not to use the tool.<\/p>\n<p>The striker sustained a groin injury during the Reds&#8217; Champions League win over Eintracht Frankfurt in midweek. Slott appeared after the game and hinted he had bought players from &#8220;smaller clubs&#8221; in what appeared to be a flimsy attack against Newcastle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Howe told a pre-match press conference: &#8220;I don&#8217;t think it would be wise for me to get involved in those discussions. Alex is no longer at this football club and it&#8217;s best to keep his distance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In response to a question about the facilities, Howe said, &#8220;The facilities here are very good. They&#8217;re not perfect, and there are things that need to be improved and things that need to grow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe owners here are developing the facility and you can see the construction work taking place, which we hope will help us further improve in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;But I have no complaints. We have elite athletes here, but a lot of them have touched the wood and are managing pretty well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked to defend the club&#8217;s position following Slott&#8217;s comments, Howe said: &#8220;I don&#8217;t think there&#8217;s a need to do that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked about Isak&#8217;s fitness and readiness, the Liverpool manager said: &#8220;I don&#8217;t think there&#8217;s a rule that all players are the same.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;But it also depends on what he did when he wasn&#8217;t training with the team and what the impact would be if he went to a new club as a big contract.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So you can&#8217;t compare him to players who haven&#8217;t trained or played in pre-season at a smaller club than maybe going to Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are a lot of factors that have to be taken into account, but there is no one thing that is possible or impossible. It&#8217;s a delicate balance. Some people miss pre-season and still make it through, while others unfortunately get injured again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2125449\/Eddie-Howe-Arne-Slot-Liverpool\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has addressed Arne Slott&#8217;s comments following Liverpool&#8217;s Alexander Isak&#8217;s injury earlier this week.
