Kieran Trippier confronted angry Newcastle fans following their 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth.<\/p>\n
The injury-hit Magpies were downed by Dominic Solanke\u2019s second-half double on the south coast.<\/p>\n
As the players went to applaud the travelling fans after the final whistle, England full-back Trippier was filmed on social media responding to a supporter by saying: \u201cAre the lads not giving everything? How many injuries have we got?\u201d<\/p>\n
Afterwards, Trippier played down the incident. He told Sky Sports: \u201cThe fans are emotional, they have travelled a long way.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had a chat with one of them, saying we are giving everything and there\u2019s no need to panic.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe got beat and we apologise for that result, but the lads are giving everything.\u201d<\/p>\n
Manager Eddie Howe admitted he understood the fans\u2019 frustrations. \u201cKieran is fine. Emotions run high,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe all feel a bit emotional after that from our perspective. We value all our away support, we value them greatly. We thank them for their support.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was a nightmare return to Bournemouth for Howe, who\u00a0saw his side\u2019s seven-match unbeaten Premier League run end and their injury crisis deepen.<\/p>\n
The Magpies were already missing 11 players through injury and suspension after Callum Wilson injured a hamstring in the midweek defeat at Borussia Dortmund. Howe revealed Wilson will withdraw from the England squad and faces a spell on the sidelines.<\/p>\n
They then lost Miguel Almiron to another hamstring problem midway through the first half.<\/p>\n
The long casualty list meant a first Premier League start for 17-year-old Lewis Miley in central midfield.<\/p>\n
Such are Newcastle\u2019s lack of options they ended the match with Ben Parkinson, an 18-year-old who had never previously made a first-team appearance, playing alone in attack.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a game where we couldn\u2019t be where we needed to be for it and it was a tough watch. We were unrecognisable today,\u201d added Howe, who was the Cherries manager the last time they beat Newcastle in 2017.<\/p>\n
I think we really deserved this win<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a real off day. There are reasons, but I don\u2019t want to sit here and make excuses. I want to support the players.\u201d<\/p>\n
The only surprise was that it took dominant Bournemouth an hour before they made the breakthrough.<\/p>\n
Joe Willock challenged Antoine Semenyo, the ball rolled off him into the path of Solanke who raced into the area and lashed his shot inside Nick Pope\u2019s near post.<\/p>\n
Bournemouth doubled the lead from a corner, Solanke flicking the rebound home with his heel after Luis Sinisterra\u2019s header hit a post.<\/p>\n
It secured only a second win of the season for Bournemouth and lifted them out of the bottom three.<\/p>\n
Boss Andoni Iraola said: \u201cI think we really deserved this win. We played well and had good chances. Luckily we finished the job in the second half.<\/p>\n
\u201cDom has been very good for us. On the ball and off the ball, he helps his team-mates. He missed chances in the first half, but cleared his mind and continued playing the same way.\u201d<\/p>\n
