Fabian Schar gives insight into Newcastle United dressing room feeling under Eddie Howe

Newcastle United star Fabian Schar says he has never experienced team spirit such as the type on display in the Magpies' dressing room at present. The Swiss defender, 30, has enjoyed a stellar start to the season with Newcastle's defence statistically the best in the Premier League.

Schar almost left Tyneside after being thrown on the scrapheap by Steve Bruce before the arrival of Eddie Howe 12 months ago. Since then, the £3m signing in 2018 has flourished under his new-found responsibility at the heart of Newcastle 's defence.

Jetting off to the World Cup with Switzerland this week, Schar has reflected on his time with Newcastle and admits both the £300m takeover and Howe's arrival on Tyneside have revived his career in the north east.
