Hes very good, the Scot told talkSPORT.Its massive that he does stay now, especially at the moment with the unrest among the fans.Theres no better man for the club. Hes seen everything.

That spreads throughout the whole team and the whole club.We started really poorly this season and not once did the manager panic.Matt Ritchie salvaged a point for Newcastle on Saturday3

Thats no criticism towards the fans because theyve been fantastic and I understand the unrest. But support is what the team needs.Ritchie earned a vital point for Newcastle against his former club Bournemouth on Saturday after striking at the death.The Scotland international helped the Cherries gain promotion to the Premier League in 2015 and turned heads by swapping the top-flight club for the Magpies, who were in the Championship when he completed his move in 2016.3He admits that while it was the toughest decision of his life, he couldnt be happier with the way its all panned out,” he continued.It was pleasing to get the goal but it was a strange feeling after playing for Bournemouth and returning and scoring.It was the biggest decision of my life. At the time, Id been at Bournemouth for four special years.From the minute I arrived there the people, the manager, the players, we had such a special thing there. When I look back now, I look back with such fond memories.I thought it was a time when I needed a new challenge. Luckily enough we got promoted and its gone to plan.
