Eddie Howe has spoken of his satisfaction after the 4-1 win at Fulham. The Magpies coasted to victory against 10 men and sit in seventh place in the Premier League.
Howe said afterwards: "It has been a long time coming. We have had a long wait for the second win of the season. Right from the start we had a good feeling, with good energy, and created chances early on.
“Obviously the red card made it easier but I am very pleased with the players' response. Their attitude - we wanted more, we weren't happy with what we had, always trying to score.”

And after some tough luck with injuries in the international break Howe reflected: "It's been a very difficult two weeks, obviously we have had the international break with players going away, but we have also had a bit of illness in the camp, so it's been a mixed two weeks but it didn't show in our performance."
