Howe on 'close' Man City games, Osula confidence and avoiding 'bleak' season

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has been speaking to the media before Saturday's FA Cup fifth round tie against Manchester City at St James' Park (kick-off 20:00 GMT). Howe confirmed striker Nick Woltemade has been suffering with illness but should be fit again for the weekend and midfielder Lewis Miley "isn't too far away" but not ready for the next couple of games. Despite the contrast in recent defeat by Everton and win over Manchester United, the Newcastle boss insisted the post-match process of reviewing games for improvement "never stops", but it is just the "emotions that are different".
