NEWCASTLE: Reaching a semifinal is not enough for Newcastle United, that’s the view of head coach Eddie Howe who only has eyes for Wembley.
Bottom-of-the-table Southampton stand between the Magpies and a place in the final of the Carabao Cup, with the first leg of the last-four tie set for the south coast on Tuesday evening.
And Howe is refusing to take credit for guiding the club to the semifinal of the competition for the first time since 1976, because he’s got cup glory on his mind. “We’re delighted to be where we are but the semifinal itself isn’t enough.
I don’t think it’s enough for anybody,” said the United boss. “To say you got to a semifinal means nothing. You want to get one step further.
