Newcastle United has largely been off for most of the fixtures this season, and the best example of this was their recent display against Fulham. Right from the very beginning, Eddie Howe's side was just trying to chase the Cottagers, never trying to get hold of the game's control in their hands. As Newcastle icon Alan Shearer pointed out, a massive concern for the club has been their weak intensity on the field, causing them significant harm.

In particular, the club's midfield compartment has felt silent, which used to be their greatest strength seasons ago. Be it Joelinton, Longstaff, or even Captain Bruno Guimaraes, all have been under the bush after a significant performance in the season opener against Southampton FC.

For Newcastle, Guimaraes' form is a much bigger concern, given that he has been one of the club's evergreen performers since his arrival at the Tyneside club. However, addressing the same, reports suggest that Magpies boss Eddie Howe has come up with a unique plan to get the best out of the 26-year-old.

Considering such a poor run from his captain, who was at fault in Fulham's 3-1 goal recently, Howe has decided to keep him in his lineup rather than dropping him. Upon closely analyzing Newcastle's season roster, it can be observed that they still lack a better number 6 than the Brazilian ace, and given that he is the club captain as well, dropping him can't even arise as a real possibility at the club.

According to the reports from the Daily Mail, Eddie Howe holds the belief that giving him time on the field is the best way to bring the best out of him. Apart from physical training routines, regular game exposure could be the best option for Guimaraes, who is significantly capable of complying with the intensity and aggression the club needs.

Not to forget, something similar was practiced by manager Eddie Howe with star winger Anthony Gordon, who was feeling a bit off in the season start. Being much known of Bruno Guimaraes' potential, the Magpies fans would hope that Howe's plan works suitably, with the Brazilian star leading the Tyneside club to a successful season.
