Newcastle United

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe on a post-Liverpool comedown: "After any game, there's a comedown. But I think it will be a steep one after the Liverpool game.

"And I think our challenge this weekend is to find a way to hit the same levels of intensity and mental qualities that we showed on Wednesday, so quickly."

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe on team news: "There were some tired bodies in the team.

"Anthony Gordon was fatigued at the end of his performance, which was very, very good, and naturally when you empty like that and give so much to the game, there's going to be a hit.

"I thought Alex [Isak] worked extremely hard and he was tired at the end. But our job is to refuel the group and go again on what is another great opportunity for us."

Time for our first of 15 Premier League media conferences today.

Here's Eddie Howe...

• Fulham are unbeaten in all nine of their Premier League games against Brighton, the most they’ve ever faced an opponent without ever losing in the competition.
• Brighton have failed to win any of their last 10 Premier League games in London, their longest such run in the competition, and their longest in any league since 1967.

• Lewis Dunk made his 250th Premier League start, the first Brighton player to reach this milestone.

Alex Iwobi has been a star for Fulham this season. The 28-year-old moved to Fulham last season from Everton but it is only now he is really hitting the peak of his powers at the London club.

The midfielder has played 16 games for Fulham this campaign across all competitions. In those matches he has scored five goals and made three assists.

In the Premier League specifically, he has played all 14 games and scored 5 goals. He has created five big chances, made 41 crosses and has blocked seven shots.

It wasn't an ideal start but you've got to give credit to Fulham, they pressed well, that was one of their tactics going into the game and they got the rewards early doors.

Due to the weather, it wasn't very nice at Craven Cottage, Fulham walk away with three points and rightly so but I think if you zoom out and take the emotion out of the fixture, Fabian Hurzeler will be quite happy with his team's performance. If they can keep putting those performances in, the results will keep coming.

I think both clubs, after the evening, sitting fifth and sixth in the Premier League early December. They'll both be relatively happy.

Fulham's opponent next up is tricky as they have London rivals Arsenal, who currently sit in third. They are six points ahead of Fulham.

However, with Fulham's current form and Alex Iwobi in particular shining at the moment, it wouldn't be a huge upset if they were to win.

Fulham also have a slight inside man as Emile Smith Rowe will be playing his former side. The 24-year-old came through the academy at the Gunners. He moved to Fulham in the 2024 summer transfer window.

Fulham's recent form has been impressive, aside from their 4-1 loss to Wolves in November.

The Wolves defeat is their only loss in the past five Premier League matches.

They beat Brighton, Brentford and Crystal Palace, while also drawing to Tottenham.

Fulham's impressive win over Brighton means they are now sixth in the Premier League. They have 22 points after winning six of their 14 matches this season.

They are 13 points off leaders Liverpool and just four points outside the top four.

Last campaign they finished 13th with a haul of 47 points with 13 wins. They are on heir way to beating that form by a long way.

With a full slate of Premier League games this weekend, we will be hearing from plenty of managers today.

There are 15 (FIFTEEN) media conferences scheduled for today, with Eddie Howe of Newcastle first up.

The man under pressure, Ange Postecoglou, will address the press at 11.30 GMT, then in the afternoon we will hear from plenty more bosses.

Arne Slot, Mikel Arteta and Pep Guardiola are among the managers we expect to hear from today.

We're getting your views on the Spurs fans' reaction to Ange Postecoglou last night at Bournemouth, where the manager confronted some fans over what they were shouting at him.

Are the fans entitled to air their views? Should they be more respectful of the manager? Or should they boo, but hold off anything stronger?

Let us know your thoughts with the above poll, and we'll reveal the results later today.

Bournemouth do what they do. Every week they drop deep, defend deep and throw their bodies in front of the ball to stop it going in the net. Then when they get the ball, one set up and they are off. They have such good legs in the team and get up and down the pitch for 90+ minutes per week.

The Vitality Stadium is fast becoming a graveyard for the Premier League big beasts.

Bournemouth have beaten three of last season's top five at home this campaign - Manchester City, Arsenal, and now Spurs.
