Newcastle boss Eddie Howe insists he won't ask Bruno Guimaraes to curb his game.

The midfielder is one booking away from a new suspension.

But Howe said: "The last thing we need, to be honest at this moment in time is to lose anyone through suspension, but well have to cross that bridge when it comes.

"The lads have given so much physically in that game. The first half was everything that we want to be.

"We wanted to be aggressive and front foot. When you do that, you take risks, but those risks were worth it.

"You could see that it paid off at the other end (against Manchester City). We still wanted to do that in the second half, we still wanted to play the same way, but we just couldn't deliver that in the second half."
