Howe tips Eagles to soar again

17 March 2011 12:30
Burnley manager Eddie Howe is confident Chris Eagles will recapture his best form as the club prepare for the promotion run-in. The former Manchester United trainee has failed to hit top gear in recent games but Howe has backed him to come good when it matters most. Howe said: "When you're a creative player it's very difficult to get consistent performances week in, week out. "Teams identify you as a strength and do all that they can to combat you, so Chris has all that to deal with. "But he will be fine. He's an excellent player and we back him to come good."
