“I don’t hide,” Kieran Trippier told the reporters following Newcastle United’s 3-0 loss to Everton. Kieran Trippier has accepted full responsibility for Newcastle United’s 3-0 loss to Everton on Thursday night.
The England right-back was directly responsible for Dwight McNeil and Abdoulaye Doucoure’s goals, as well as playing Beto offside as the Toffees added a third in stoppage time. United’s road woes have continued this season, with their lone Premier League away success coming in September, when they defeated Sheffield United 8-0.
But there’s no time to dwell as Eddie Howe’s squad travels to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday afternoon (kick-off 4:30pm).
“I don’t hide,” Trippier remarked of his mistakes. “We just have to move on because we have another big game in three days.”
“Listen, it’s one of those where you messed up. Players make errors; I’ve made a couple today; I hold my hands up, accept responsibility, and now it’s time to get back on the bike and prepare for another important game against the Spurs in three days.
“Obviously, I’m disappointed because of my own actions at certain points in the game, but that’s something I’ll deal with.” I’m an experienced gamer who can manage these situations.
“But the best part is that we have a game in three days where we can try to put it right.”
