Stan Collymore doubles down on Eddie Howe claim by urging Julian Nagelsmann to Newcastle

Former Liverpool star Stan Collymore has repeated his belief that Newcastle United should sack Eddie Howe. Earlier this season, the ex-striker urged Toon chiefs to pull the trigger on Howe should they qualify for the Champions League.

While some questioned his appointment 16 months ago, any qualms have since been put to bed by the Magpies’ drastic turnaround. Even this season, few had expected Newcastle to be challenging for a top-four finish.

However, Collymore still believes United should axe Howe - who signed an improved contract last summer - to take them to the next level. The 52-year-old has named recently-sacked Julian Nagelsmann as the man to take charge.
