Former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan fears Newcastle United will take the Manchester City route to success - which could mean bad news for Eddie Howe...
Simon Jordan fears Eddie Howe may ultimately pay the price for Newcastle United’s ambition, likening his management of the club to Mark Hughes’s tenure as Manchester City boss.
Asked if Howe is proving to be the man for the big occasion, he said: “It depends what you think that big occasion is for Newcastle. If the big occasion is the delivery of an outcome for Newcastle with some significant baubles, I question that. “Eddie Howe could not have got his timing better [when arriving at Newcastle]. They could have put Genghis Khan in control of Newcastle post-Mike Ashley and the Newcastle fans would have rallied around with this fervour that they’ve got.
“No one could have ever envisaged – not the most ardent, sometimes deluded, Newcastle fan – that [Newcastle would say]: ‘We’re going to go to Milan, get a result in our first European game and then we’re going to smash PSG at home.’ “I’m pitching Eddie Howe against [Pep] Guardiola, if he’s still around; against [Jurgen] Klopp; against others in European football. I think it’s going to be very, very difficult [for Howe to join that company].
