Howe hopes Newcastle have turned a corner despite defeat to Arsenal - Soccer News
"Today was a big step forward in terms of our performance - we haven't hit the heights in recent weeks. I think it was our best defensive performance for a long time. We looked solid, we looked good."
"We have to get out of the habit of losing games. The disappointing run continues and that's something we want to stop. Performances always give you hope you're heading in the right direction."
"I know this season has not been good enough. It's not what the fans deserve. The fires are still there, but we have to show more."
Newcastle United suffered a fifth consecutive loss, falling 1-0 to Arsenal. Despite the defeat, Eddie Howe noted positives, including improved possession and defensive performance. Newcastle has lost nine Premier League matches in 2026, tying for the most in the league. Howe expressed hope that the performance could signal a turning point for the team. Bruno Guimaraes acknowledged the need for improvement for the fans and emphasized the team's passion, as they aim for European qualification with four games remaining.
