Despite being in third place in the league table, Newcastle still need a win to secure their spot in the top four. The team has been working hard to maintain their fitness levels, with Howe praising their injury record this season.

However, one of their key players, Sven Botman, has suffered a new knee injury, which has raised concerns about his availability for the rest of the season. Howe has assured that it's not a serious injury, but Botman is still feeling frustrated about the timing of it.

Despite the challenges ahead, Howe remains focused on the next game and is urging his team to stay single-minded in their pursuit of a win. He believes that the team has been well-prepared and that the players are focused on the task at hand.

With the outside noise and pressure mounting, Howe is warning his team not to get distracted by the hype surrounding their Champions League push. He knows that nothing is achieved until it's achieved and that they need to stay focused on their next game.

As the Magpies head to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal, they will be looking to maintain their strength and momentum in the final weeks of the season. With a win, they can secure their place in the Champions League, but Howe knows that the picture can change game to game.

He is urging his team to stay focused and not get complacent, knowing that the Champions League qualifying is not yet done and dusted.

Howe is also praising Botman's bravery and commitment to the team, despite the setbacks he has faced recently. He believes that the young defender is an important player for the Magpies and that his contribution to the team has been invaluable this season.

The Magpies will be looking to bounce back from their recent setbacks and secure a much-needed win against Arsenal. With their sights set on the Champions League, they will be giving it their all to achieve their goal.
