Dan Burn: From Silent Suffering to Rewri...

High Performance
About this episode

Premier League Defender Dan Burn opens up about the impact of Eddie Howe’s leadership, how genuine communication and taking the time to connect with players makes a difference beyond just tactics. He reflects on the rollercoaster journey from near relegation to competing in the Champions League, and how winning the League Cup wasn’t just about the trophy itself, but the collective grit and unity that got them there.


The conversation also dives into the emotional highs and lows of chasing silverware and carrying the weight of a club desperate for glory. From the League Cup final to Champions League qualification, Burn doesn't just talk about the games, he talks about the journey.


This episode offers real insight into the heart of Newcastle United, through the voice of someone who lives and breathes it.
