Eddie Howe has warned Newcastle stars are playing for their futures at the ambitious Saudi Arabia funded club.
The United head coach admits holding a “frank and honest” inquest as players saw his angry side for the first time. Howe concedes Newcastle are still in relegation trouble after three defeats, ahead of Wolves ’ visit to St James' Park on Friday night.
The usually calm and calculating Toon chief says he is judging his stars every day on “attitude and character”. His verdict will determine whether they will stay a part of big spending Saudi plans to revamp the squad with another £100m-plus of recruitment this summer.
