Kieran Trippier has insisted Newcastle United are not getting ahead of themselves as they close in on the Champions League places.
The England full-back has been part of a United side that have won 5-1 and 4-1 at West Ham and Everton, as well as battering Tottenham Hotspur. The truth is, Newcastle have played two matches in a row with contrasting halves in the last two games but it feels like they are due to pull off an even bigger hammering given the confidence levels and amount of chances they are creating.
Newcastle now face a Southampton team that have conceded 57 goals and have a goal difference of minus 30. But Trippier is not eyeing any type of record scoreline, he just wants a thorough job from his troops.
