Dan Burn wants Newcastle United to make it 5 home wins in a row BUT also sort their away form | OneFootball

Dan Burn has been talking ahead of Newcastle United taking on Athletic Bilbao.

United hoping to move on to nine points from their opening four Champions League matches.

Dan Burn also wanting to move on from Sunday’s poor performance and result at West Ham.

Whilst Newcastle United have won their last four home games in all competitions, a very different story away from St James’ Park.

Indeed, the only away win so far this season, was in the Champions League, a superb and resounding 4-0 away at Union S-G.

Dan Burn talking after Sunday’s defeat at West Ham and ahead of facing Athletic Bilbao at St James’ Park, four home victories in a row for NUFC but struggling to win away:

“The manager will look at that and I’m sure he will come up with a plan on what we can do better.

“How we can win games, probably be a bit more ugly with stuff.

“We were well known a few years ago for…I won’t say the word but ‘something housery’…

“If you go away from home, sometimes it is important not to get beat, pick up points and keep yourself ticking along.

“As long as you are winning your home games and not getting beat away it is better but we have not done that well enough.

“The first year we were in the Champions League, we were more of an underdog, teams probably didn’t respect us as much as they should.

“We could go ugly and bully teams and that was the way we went about it, but as you progress and want to push on, you move away from that because you bring in better quality players and play better football.

“But there is always a place for that in the game.

“Arsenal are quite good at doing that but are [also] playing very good football and are top of the league.
