Targett in warning to Clarets

MATT Targett has insisted Newcastle United are determined to end the season on a big high – by clinching a top-10 finish at Burnley.

The Clarets know they may need a victory to stay in the Premier League but Targett, on loan from Aston Villa, is eager to sign off on winning note

He told The Chronicle: “We still want to finish as high as possible. We know Burnley are fighting for their lives so it’s going to be a completely different game to Arsenal.

“We’ve finished the season strong at St James’ but we want to go into the last game and win that too. No matter what, we’ll go into the game trying to win.

“That’s the way the manager is and that’s what the players want too. We won’t be thinking the season is done, no way, there are still three more points up for grabs and hopefully that helps the club finish even higher.”

Burnley must better Leeds’ result at Brentford to stay up.
