Time is sometimes just an excuse. It is essential that you know what you are doing. The case of Newcastle and Eddie Howe shows that. The richest club in the world did not frantically and panicky tried to buy success, but had a long-term vision and a multi-year plan. And they found the right coach to do it. Howe has transformed the Magpies in just one year (with over 200 million spent off course), and on Tuesday night they can reach the final of a minor national cup for only the second time.Mara ya mwisho Newcastle walitinga nusu fainali ya michuano ya Carabao Cup iulikuwa ni 1976. Leo watachuana na Southampton kwenye mkondo wa pili wa nusu fainali. Newcastle watatoboa amawatafanywa waendelee kusubiri?Kuwa Mshindi!Cheza sasa 👉 https://t.co/7MDz2dkNUr pic.twitter.com/vhDQHeiujj— Mozzart Bet Kenya (@mozzartbetkenya) January 31, 2023 Traditionally, the first domestic title in English club football is awarded in the League Cup. The grand final is scheduled for the end of February at the magnificent Wembley, and Newcastle are currently well on their way to London. The Magpies beat Southampton 1-0 in the first leg of the semi-final at St Mary’s Stadium and are therefore one step closer to reaching the final. The winner of the two legs is likely to face Manchester United, who won the first leg against Nottingham Forest 3-0.Handballs, glaring misses and Eritrean magic: Newcastle make a giant stride towards the Carabao Cup finalThe Magpies are one of the most brilliant surprises of the current season. After 20 league rounds, they are among the top three teams in the Premier League and also have an incredible eight point advantage over fifth-placed Brighton. So far, all indications are that the Champions League group stage will be played at St James’ Park next season. Newcastle rested in the 4th round of the FA Cup at the weekend, since they were eliminated at the beginning of January from the third division Sheffield Wednesday, so that it can fully concentrate on the League Cup and competition in the domestic league. However, they stumbled last time out as they drew with Crystal Palace.We have the second largest January deal – Gordon is a 50,000,000 euros MagpieNewcastle should only be missing the trio of Shelvey, Kraft and Targett. Youngster Anthony Gordon, who joined from Everton, could make his debut for the Magpies. On the other hand, the fight for survival in the Premier League is the main priority of Southampton this season. The Saints are currently in last place in the table, but are just two points behind the safety zone. However, a result of only 15 points in 20 matches is absolutely worrying. In addition to four wins this season and three draws, the team from the south of England has already registered 13 defeats. It is unlikely that Djenepo will be available, as well as McCarthy, while the injured Larios and Livramento certainly won’t play.##NAJAVA_MECA_6988515##
