Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has moved to quell speculation he could walk away at the end of the season following a dispiriting run of results.
The Carabao Cup holders' defence of their first major domestic trophy in 70 years ended on Wednesday night when Manchester City completed a 5-1 aggregate semi-final victory over Howe's men, and they head into Saturday's Premier League clash with Brentford sitting in 11th place in the table.
