🎙️| Eddie Howe: "I think he was icing a problem at half-time, so we hope he's okay. With that in mind, and the fact I thought we needed to change tactically, we made a change and brought Lewis (Miley) on." (Source: Lee Ryder, The Chronicle)
Update Friday 16 May 2025
🎙️| Eddie Howe "It was a knock - he got a bang on his knee. We're not sure about Sven's availability for the weekend but we'll give him a chance to be fit.
"We don't think it's a serious injury. He's been unlucky. You're going to get knocks and bruises in his position and this is a similar thing. He's been really unlucky on the last two occasions." (Source: Newcastle United)
