Eddie Howe, visibly thrilled with Bruno’s form, underscores its paramount significance for the team’s overall success. According to Howe, Bruno’s recent showings against top-tier clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea rank among his finest.
“You need your top players to play really well in situations like this. I think Bruno has certainly done that. I thought Manchester United and Chelsea were up there with his best performances. And the first half against PSG. He was very good with the ball, very creative, managed to get himself connected with the players in front of him”
Bruno’s excellence transcends mere ball skills; it encompasses both creativity and physical prowess. Eddie Howe acknowledges Bruno,
“Also off the ball I thought he was really good. Physically excellent. Pressed really well. He’s such an important person to that part of the game for us. It’s hard work for him, physically, but he’s able to repeat those physical exertions that we need him to. I think his game is in a very good place, and it has to be for us to perform well because he’s at the fulcrum of everything.”
As Newcastle gears up to face Everton, Tottenham, and AC Milan in upcoming matches, the need for Bruno’s sustained high-level performance becomes even more pronounced.
