For a man who never rests in his pursuit of betterment, a statue probably won't suit Eddie Howe.
Standing still is not his thing, you see. It is because of that drive, that daily, hourly desire to improve those under his care, that Newcastle United are now trophyless no more.
From this silverware will come a bronzed likeness of Howe, no doubt, even if he does not crave such celebration. But for a conservative character, Howe is a force-of-nature coach. He is the best of his generation, and you do not need to qualify that with 'English'.
