- Howe said there is a huge amount to take into future games: resilience, character, quality and the ability to come back. He thought the penalty decision against them was really harsh.
- Asked about two players, Howe said it was Jacob Ramsey's best game for them, very good with the ball and defensively. He was really pleased for the scorer, who has had a tough time with injuries.
- Howe said they wanted to win and did not want the extra games, but they will take that route. He thinks they go into it in the best possible way, after a strong display against the holders.
- The one not given for Newcastle probably frustrated him more, Howe said. He did not think the one against Lewis Miley should have been given, but if it was, the next one had to be a penalty too.
- Asked about Dan Burn's return, Howe said he was able to run while injured and kept his fitness. Despite his lack of training time, Howe thought his awareness, positioning and touch were top class.
- Howe said the aim for Anthony Gordon and Harvey Barnes coming on was to get in behind PSG's high line. He was pleased it was executed well, and they were just missing the final bit.
“He's adapted and I thought he went on to have a really strong game.”
