Kieran Trippier has vowed that Newcastle United will be successful with a patient approach as the Magpies' star targets a top 10 finish next season.
Newcastle narrowly missed out on a place in the top half by just two points last week following a strong finish to the current campaign. Although Newcastle failed to win any of their opening 14 league games, remarkably, Eddie Howe's side finished with their best points total in eight years.
To put that turnaround into perspective, Newcastle were 19th with just five points when Howe took charge last November. By the end of the season, the black-and-whites were 11th with 49 points after only losing five games in the second half of the campaign.
