Newcastle United are doing more than just keeping up the pace with the Premier League's top four - they are now pretty much setting it.
The 3-0 win over Leicester meant that for a couple of hours on Monday night, the gap was down to just four points between Newcastle and Arsenal. The Gunners - in the eyes of some of their fans - are simply enjoying their ride at the top of the Premier League after so many seasons falling behind.
But Newcastle are aggressively pushing to not only stay where they are, there is a feeling in the camp that they can have a bigger say in the title race than many believed was possible. After 16 matches and with one match left to play, Liverpool are the only side to have beaten Eddie Howe's team.
