Howe in the “delicious” Liverpool Finals, the Clash between the Liverpool Finals and the Birmingham FA Cup
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe is looking forward to the “delicious” Carabao Cup final against Liverpool next month.
Magpie opponents at Wembley’s exhibition on March 16th were in the Premier League in Arne Slot after dismantling Tottenham 4-0 at Anfield on Thursday night to secure a 4-1 total victory. He was confirmed as a leader.
Howe booked the spot in the final by beating Arsenal 4-0 on two legs, but says that next month will be a great opportunity, but starting with the fourth round of the FA Cup, he said he was “immediately” I encouraged them to focus on the challenges. This weekend they will travel to Birmingham on Saturday.
The Toon boss said: “It’s a great game. Liverpool did what they’re doing at Anfield – it was a really good performance. Anyone we were trying to face is a tough game. You know, playing Liverpool is an appetizing tie.
“We really look forward to it, but we need to put it in bed and focus on the challenges we face.
“The biggest challenge is eradicating the finals from the brain. It’s a very important and difficult game when you’re playing Liverpool, Man City, Nottingham Forest and more.”
This is Newcastle’s second time in three years after a 2-0 loss to Manchester United in 2023.
“I think we’re going to do things a little differently, but not from a superstitious perspective,” added Howe.
“I was more superstitious as a player. As a manager, I tend to see things a little differently. I’ve become more free on my own. I put the player in the best of my ability, Fate must give you the rest of your work.”
Team News: Miss Birmingham Game from Botman
Eddie Howe of Birmingham:
“We respect them, Chris Davis did a great job. Every time you go to Birmingham, you notice the size of the club. It’s a huge football club with a great supporter base.
It’s a really good reason to play. We consider this to be big… pic.twitter.com/irpxmiuq3u

Hau said Sven Bottman will miss Saturday’s visit to League One Leader with a knee problem that is not considered serious, only returning from a cruciate ligament injury.
“I don’t think he’ll be available this weekend. He knocked on the knee on the other side of an ACL injury,” Howe said.
“It’s not seriously injured, but I’ll keep him away from Birmingham before I evaluate him next week.”
“PSR has changed its recruitment strategy.”
Newcastle has not signed players during the January transfer period, which was recently closed, and Howe has focused on developing talent, rather than buying ready-made stars. He said that it means that.
He states: The other buildings (the academy) people really help to thrive (the player) and develop into the first team.
“I think using PSR is probably more weighted in that direction. If you can bring in one or two gems, it will make a huge difference and help you try to make everything you want to do here. Masu.
“There’s still room to sign established players and we need it for clubs of size. It’s really a mix of both.”
