Dan Burn has admitted that an 'us against the world' mentality has given Newcastle United 'added motivation'.
Newcastle were booed off at Anfield last week by Liverpool supporters despite Jurgen Klopp's side winning the game with a controversial late goal from Fabio Carvalho. In a way, that reaction was a compliment after Newcastle unsettled and frustrated the Reds for large periods by running the clock down in the 2-1 defeat.
Off the field, too, Newcastle are being perceived a little differently following the club's takeover last year. Newcastle have found that domestic rivals have hiked prices for targets while clubs who were previously willing to send players on loan to Tyneside have not been quite so keen of late.
