Hello and welcome to The Everything is Black and White Podcast - recorded in Germany!

Our NUFC writer Ciaran Kelly was one of the lucky few to be invited to catch up with Eddie Howe at Adidas' HQ in Herzogenaurach.

Eddie Howe was asked about links to the England job - and he was not shy in his response.

But more intriguing were his comments about the new dynamic at United, and how he wants to remain Toon boss for as long as he is happy at the club.

It was very much a power play from the Toon boss.

Here is Ciaran's quickfire take on it.

Andrew and Aaron will bring you a longer in depth episode on Monday.
