“Newcastle has become a sleeping giant. Winning this trophy will change everything, for the city, it will mean a lot,” former Newcastle player Steven Taylor was quoted as saying. BBC.

“It’s a bit like the Bobby Robson era, with the feel of hope and optimism factor that Eddie Howe created. It’s put Newcastle back on the map so it looks like it’s coming back.”

“There’s no reason Newcastle can’t go into this game full of confidence,” he added.
