Newcastle United midfielder Sean Longstaff admits that a host of Toon stars are playing for their futures at St James' Park. With just four fixtures remaining in the Premier League and 43 points in the bag, United's greatest opponent could well be complacency with the job of survival carried out with time to spare.

He said: "I think, at the minute, we’re just trying to finish as high as we can this season. I don’t think the staff will really let us get ahead of ourselves.
