Tino Livramento’s magnificent return to Newcastle United against Manchester City earned widespread praise from teammates Elliot Anderson and manager Eddie Howe, highlighting his crucial role in the team’s improved performance.
According to a report from Geordie Boot Boys, Tino Livramento made a strong return for Newcastle United in their 2–1 Premier League victory over Manchester City, drawing glowing remarks from both former teammate Elliot Anderson and manager Eddie Howe.
Livramento, starting his first game since early October, was described by Anderson — who played alongside him for club and country — as being “too good” in his comeback.
Anderson’s praise came on social media, echoing the wider admiration from ex- and current players.
Howe, meanwhile, echoed that sentiment in his post-match comments, saying Livramento “looked unbelievable” given his time out.
He singled out the defender for a “really high-level performance against a really dangerous opponent,” naming City’s Jeremy Doku in particular.
Howe also noted the significance of Livramento’s return coinciding with Kieran Trippier’s absence, underlining how vital the young full-back is to the squad.
In Howe’s view, having both Livramento and Lewis Hall available again gives Newcastle a much-needed boost — adding defensive solidity and attacking threat down the flanks.
