Newcastle defender Krafth: We must bounce back after Palace defeat

Newcastle United have to do their jobs this weekend as they take on Sheffield United.

That is the view of Emil Krafth, who has made it clear that his side cannot afford more slip ups.

The Magpies were beaten by Crystal Palace in the Premier League in midweek, as they look to finish in the top six positions.

Krafth stated: "I am hot happy with the result. But we have to bounce back again next game.

We have to play like we have five finals left. Finishing in the top six would be a success this season.

"Because if you look at how many injuries we have to finish in the top six would be a very strong season for us. We have had all the injuries and had to rotate so many players, a top six finish would be incredibly strong for us."
