Jonjo Shelvey has revealed that Eddie Howe has brought a 'real togetherness' to Newcastle United as the Magpies' midfielder urged his team-mates to 'keep listening' to the head coach.
Newcastle were five points from safety when Howe was appointed last November, but the black-and-whites have since pulled clear of danger.
Although there is still a lot of work to do to stay up, Newcastle are currently four points clear of the relegation zone and Howe's side could even leapfrog Brentford into 14th place with a win against the out of form Bees on Saturday.
