‘He’ll be England manager one day’ Bruno Guimaraes heaps praise on Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe and explains how the Toon boss caught Arne Slot by surprise during the Carabao Cup Final

Newcastle United Head Coach Eddie Howe embraces Bruno Guimaraes of Newcastle United (39) following the Carabao Cup Final between Liverpool and Newcastle United at Wembley Stadium on March 16, 2025 in London, England.

Bruno Guimaraes loves talking, but admits when it comes to describing what it is like to work with Eddie Howe, he struggles to find the words.

“It’s tough to describe what a fabulous human being he is: you’d have to work with him on a daily basis to get the full picture of what I’m talking about,” the Brazilian explains speaking exclusively to FourFourTwo after being named the 12th best player in the Premier League this season by the magazine.

It’s been a superb season for Guimaraes, who is also ranked at no.4 in FourFourTwo's list of the best central midfielders in the world right now, as he became the first Newcastle United captain to lift a domestic trophy in 70 years this March. But he is keen to stress that it was his manager’s fearlessness that got the club over the line vs Liverpool at Wembley.
