Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe believes Anthony Elanga can go on to\u00a0great things\u00a0for the club.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Elanga struggled for Newcastle United against Brighton<\/a> in their 2-1 Premier League<\/a> defeat on Saturday, although\u00a0he was far from alone in that.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Sweden international \u2013 alongside the equally ineffective Joelinton \u2013 was hooked at half-time. <\/p>\n

Elanga<\/a> is struggling to convince right now,\u00a0there\u2019s\u00a0little doubt about that. In his\u00a0defence,\u00a0almost all\u00a0of\u00a0Newcastle<\/a>\u2019s attacking players other than Nick\u00a0Woltemade\u00a0are enduring similar issues.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Still, as Anthony Gordon and Lewis Hall have proven before, it sometimes takes players a while to adapt to life under the Newcastle United manager<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After the Brighton game, Howe<\/a> issued a stirring\u00a0defence\u00a0of his player.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Howe was asked whether Newcastle needed more from Elanga. <\/p>\n

Clearly, they do, but it would also be foolish to overlook Newcastle\u2019s wider struggles. None of their wingers have scored in the Premier League this season, while only Jacob Murphy has provided an assist. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe need more from everybody, it\u2019s never about one player,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

\u201cAnthony is going to be a great player for this football club, I\u2019ve got no doubt about that. <\/p>\n

\u201cSome players need a little bit more time and more support and just something to happen positively for them to suddenly kick on. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s\u00a0got all the attributes to do\u00a0really well\u00a0here so\u00a0I\u2019ve\u00a0got no issues or worries with him.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0about the\u00a0team,\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0always about the collective.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anthony Elanga thinks Eddie Howe is the best manager he\u2019s ever had <\/p>\n

Elanga is in safe hands, even if he\u2019s endured a difficult start to life at the club. <\/p>\n

Howe is a brilliant manager and one who has consistently improved various players during his time on Tyneside. <\/p>\n

The man fighting Elanga for a starting berth on Newcastle\u2019s right wing can vouch for that. Murphy has become a leading Premier League star under his guidance.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

There\u2019s every reason to believe that things will come good. All the tools are there and a settling in period has to be expected somewhat. <\/p>\n

Elanga thinks Howe is his greatest-ever manager<\/a>, so both parties\u00a0appear to have\u00a0full confidence that this really can work out in the long term.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cA fantastic coach who I\u2019m learning a lot from,\u201d Elanga said of Howe. <\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, he is the best coach I have ever had. He helps me a lot on and off the field. I feel like I am getting better.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

It will be fascinating to see who Howe starts against Benfica on Tuesday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe believes Anthony Elanga can go on to\u00a0great things\u00a0for the club.\u00a0 Elanga struggled for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":209834,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[1704,5862,218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-209833","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-anthony-elanga","tag-eddie-howe","tag-football","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209833","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209833"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209833\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/209834"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209833"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209833"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209833"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
