Newcastle boss Howe: Where I think Anderson will eventually end up

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has heaped praise on youngster Elliot Anderson.

The talented midfielder put in a superb display in a 4-0 win over Tottenham on Saturday.

The Magpies have pushed up into sixth place in the Premier League on goal difference over Manchester United.

"I think Elliot brings his unique version of ball-winning duels but I wouldn't say he's sort of a natural like Joe [Joelinton] is. I think that's more just through his endeavor and his passion," Howe said post-game.

"But what he can bring is a totally different thing technically. And his delivery around the box, I think we'll see that steadily improve through time. I think he will be a goalscorer or a goal creator.

"We've seen that through training now for a long period of time. I can't speak highly enough of how he's come back from his injury. I think he's in a really good place."
