Newcastle's main goal is to get into the top 5 (this guarantees direct entry into the Champions League,
Yeah, actually I think that's what they're fighting for right now. Though the 5th position seems not to be conducive for them which is why they will keep struggling so as to advance to the 4th position because if you talk about thier main goal is to get into the top 5 remember there are still other teams who are also fighting for for the 5th position, so you can't tell for sure. Moreover, thier consistency will determine if they're going to remain in the 5th position or to advance to 4th position.
Except they begin failing otherwise, Newcastle has got that consistency with which they can use to maintain the 5th position or probably move to the 4th position already. Newcastle has been having some good performances that they have been able to sustain for the longest, they have also been able to make sure not to have fallen below certain points and positions on the table so they have actually so far been really trying for a team that they are and they are most definitely going to end up at the fifth position especially now that it's been said to be a champions league position according to the latest update from champions league.
