00:00Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe has been impressed
00:05with the Magpies' summer signing Nick Valtemarda
00:08and has urged his Newcastle teammates to provide him with more opportunities to score.
00:15Yeah, today would have been another great learning experience for him
00:18because the speed of that game, the physicality of the game,
00:21that's as tough as you'll get.
00:24We know Arsenal are a very strong team, set plays,
00:27loads of different facets of their game require physicality.
00:31Ours is very similar and he'll leave going,
00:36it's quick, it's strong and you have to bring that yourself to be successful.
00:42I thought his goal was a brilliant example of what he can be.
00:45I don't think as a team we particularly fed him well today.
00:48I think there was not a huge number of crosses going in the box
00:51and what he did feed off, I thought he did well.
00:53If I'm Nick, I want more, you know, I want more.
00:57Not necessarily from the team because he plays an important role in that himself,
01:01but, you know, I want more goal-mouth action, I'm going to thrive and live off that.
01:06Whatever bits he had today, he converted, you know,
01:08and so I think that's something for me to reflect on.
01:13And Middlesbrough head coach Rob Edwards has previewed
01:16Borough's Championship clash with Stoke City
01:18as his side look to pick up another win.
01:20That's what we want to make it feel like.
01:24It's felt good, you know, the supporters have been incredible
01:27and the lads are working really, really hard.
01:30Invariably in this league the games are tight, you know,
01:32and I'm expecting another tight game again tomorrow night.
01:35So everyone be prepared to, you know, bite the fingernails
01:39or whatever they need to do at the end,
01:40but also get behind the lads and make sure that we're, you know,
01:44we're able to keep doing the running
01:45and keep doing the horrible side of the game as well,
01:47which gets us over the line.
01:48But, you know, it certainly feels really special
01:51that we can build and create something here.
01:53You talk about how tight it's going to be.
01:55I think after the Norwich game, Mark Robbins are actually
01:58the most dominant, you feel, Stoke, of being,
02:01yet they only got a point.
02:02That kind of tells you just how difficult it could be tomorrow.
02:06What do you, how do you assess their threat?
02:09Yeah, they're a really, really strong team.
02:12They did play very well.
02:13Mark was right against Norwich.
