""Yeah, a perfect way to celebrate the birthday," he said. "I was saying earlier I've had birthdays where we haven't got a good result, and trust me, they aren't the birthdays you want. Massive win for us, we needed it. And we finally won away from home, which was a great feeling. We tweaked things tactically, and we have been doing that regularly to try and find a formula.""
""Sometimes it's not necessarily that. It's the players, the ones that go on the pitch, that are able to execute and play well and I thought they did it. Lots of details we've got right, obviously set plays are important and we were on the right side of that today, which was really pleasing to see, and a good feel about the team.""
Newcastle United won 4-1 at Hill Dickinson Stadium, claiming their first Premier League away victory of the season. Malick Thiaw opened after 55 seconds and scored a second in the second half, with Lewis Miley and Nick Woltemade contributing goals before half-time. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall scored a consolation for Everton. The result marked Newcastle's biggest away win against a non-promoted Premier League side since April 2023 and provided manager Eddie Howe, celebrating his 48th birthday, with a notable victory. Tactical tweaks and effective set plays were credited for the strong team display.
