Newcastle boss Howe dismisses fresh Burn doubts

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe insists Dan Burn wasn't to blame for the goals conceded in their 2-2 draw with Bournemouth.

Burn was substituted when the Cherries were 2-1 ahead.

Howe said: "I am not dealing with that kind of thought in my mind. It is not about finding someone to blame it is about finding solutions.

"And that's what I'll do with my work. I can sit here all night and talk about the value of everybody's performance, mine included, and pick holes in it.

"But for me the job has always been about finding solutions. That second goal would not have come from one individuals mistake. I'm telling you now it will come from three or four people's individual mistakes. People may highlight one person but in my job you can't do that."
