Dan Burn admits it would be 'amazing' to end Newcastle United's painful trophy drought if he had to choose between Carabao Cup success or a top-four finish. The Magpies sit third in the Premier League following a stunning start to the season, and only Southampton now stand in their way of a Wembley final.
Eddie Howe's side shrugged off their shock FA Cup defeat at Sheffield Wednesday to beat Leicester City three days' later in the Carabao Cup quarter-final. Boyhood Magpies fan Burn scored his first goal for the club in front of the Gallowgate End, and a later strike from Joelinton sealed 2-0 win.
Newcastle return to league action with a televised encounter against Fulham on Sunday afternoon, and then face a trip to Crystal Palace before the semi-final clashes with the Saints. Burn was interviewed on talkSPORT on Friday morning, and was asked whether a trophy would trump qualifying for next season's Champions League.
