Eddie Howe's words will excite Newcastle but worry Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs and Premier League

Eddie Howe has stressed that there is still more to come from Newcastle United in the second half of the season - even if the challenge 'only gets harder'.

Newcastle have enjoyed a superb campaign so far. Not only are the Magpies flying in third place in the Premier League at the halfway point of the season - Howe's side have also reached their first League Cup semi-final in 47 years.

Those would have been unimaginable feats a year ago, when Newcastle were second from bottom and fighting to stay in the league, but this side have come a long way since then. Newcastle have only lost one Premier League game so far this season, against Liverpool back in August, and the black-and-whites are currently on a club record-equalling 14-game unbeaten run in the top-flight.
