Newcastle's head coach Eddie Howe commented on the team's entry into the Champions League and the club's progress this season.
Eddie Gau, Getty Images- Of course, this is not what we were aiming for. Remember that last season we avoided relegation. We were hoping to add and stay out of danger. We also hoped to grow as a team to compete for a few seasons to get to Europe, so we are way ahead of schedule.
Getting into the Champions League means new challenges. We need to take this chance," said Eddie Gau.
It will be recalled that Newcastle managed to reach the group stage of the Champions League for the first time in 20 years. Eddie Gau's men scored 70 points in 37 rounds and became unattainable for Liverpool, who theoretically claimed the top 4.
