Lewis Miley, an 18-year-old promising football player, is preparing for a potential return to action in the Carabao Cup match against Chelsea. Since sustaining injuries, Miley has been on the Newcastle bench for the past two Premier League games without entering the field. His Premier League debut was memorable, not only for the venue against Chelsea but also for nearly scoring by hitting the bar shortly after coming on. Additionally, he fondly recalls assisting Alexander Isak for a goal in a previous 4-1 victory against Chelsea.
Eddie Howe said “We have to manage him right and I think last week, when I think to the Brighton when he was on the bench and was on there ahead of time, where we thought he’d be. He has trained well and I have no problem with his training performances, he has looked really good. In respect to the injuries he’s had we have to be really careful. We have to be really careful to manage his minutes. Technically he has been really, really good so I have got no issue, I think he looks in a really good place. It’s just a case of managing [his workload] he’s still very young, he’s had a couple of injuries which reflected on maybe we overused him last year and we don’t want him to get injured again. I think small steps initially for Lewis, but hopefully he can progress into playing some big minutes for us.”
