Joelinton has revealed Newcastle United's dressing room mentality as he and his team-mates close in on a Champions League place.
The noise outside the dressing room is whirring around the club at the moment with Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp desperately trying to crank up the mind games as his Kop side are mathematically still in the hunt for the top four. But Joelinton has made it clear that United's aims for the run-in will render Klopp's late season attempts redundant.
Joelinton feels that United can protect themselves by focusing on nothing but their own efforts. When asked how many of the remaining fixtures, Newcastle must win to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in 20 years, Joelinton was precise.
