Eddie Howe praise for Will Still as Newcastle United boss makes own Football Manager admission

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has hailed one of the men of the moment on the managerial circuit in Will Still - and admits his early path into the dugout reminds of his own journey.

Howe was just 31 when he was put in charge of AFC Bournemouth before guiding the Cherries from the brink of relegation to non-league circles and up to the Premier League.

Still is currently in charge of Ligue 1 club Reims and has stabilised the French club on a limited budget and even led them to draws with moneybags Paris St-Germain who had Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe on the team sheet.
