Eddie Howe Bags Premier League Manager Of The Month Award

Eddie Howe, who led Newcastle to third place in the standings, has been awarded the Premier League manager of the month for October.

Miguel Almiron, one of Howe’s biggest success stories, also bagged both the Player of the Month and Goal of the Month awards.

Eddie Howe had a standout month on Tyneside, guiding Newcastle to five victories and a draw from six games, earning 16 of the 18 possible points.

The Magpies scored 15 goals in seven games while allowing just three goals to be scored.

They gatecrashed the top four in the Premier League and now appear to be strong contenders for a spot in the Champions League next season.

Howe beat off competition from Arsenal’s Mikel Arteta and Man City boss Pep Guardiola to make it a Newcastle double, with Miguel Almiron taking both the Player of the Month gong and the goal of the month award for his sensational strike against Fulham.

The clean sweep of awards is the first time a single club has won all three since Chelsea achieved the same feat in November 2016.

It is the second time Howe has bagged the Manager of the Month award while Newcastle boss.

He scooped the honour back in February. Meanwhile, the 44-year-old also collected three Manager of the Month nods whilst Bournemouth boss.

Newcastle have only lost one game in all competitions so far this season.
