After their draw with Brentford on Saturday, Newcastle made it an unwanted twelve league games without a win this season, however, many supporters were impressed with the style of play implemented by Howe in his short-time on Tyneside.

However, this weekend they face a stern test against Arsenal at The Emirates stadium, a ground which they have not picked up three points at in over eleven years - a dismal record which includes nine straight league defeats.
