Eddie Howe's Newcastle are in Group F, definitely the Group Of Death
They will face PSG, Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan. It’ll be really tough but they can definitely do it. Newcastle’s home form will be key. There aren’t many better crowds to play in front of.
Eddie Howe's first challenge was so tense being in a group with PSG, Dortmund, AC Milan.
Many people are talking about Newcastle having difficulty going far in this big European tournament because Group F is classified as the tightest group or what is called the group of death.
For Eddie Howe's first experience, being in a group like Group F can have a positive impact on Eddie's personality. He can test his coaching strategy against big name teams (PSG, Milan and Dortmund) and if he can get Newcastle past the group stage, it will be easy when facing other teams who have qualified from other groups.
I feel that Eddie Howe was able to make Newcastle compete well in Group F in securing a ticket to the next round. Supporting factors in St. James' Park could be a positive influence for the Magpies.
