Oxford United vs Newcastle: What has been said?

Oxford United manager Karl Robinson: “We know we have a massive job on our hands and we are going to have to play a lot better than we did in the first meeting if we want to get through and have a chance of playing for a place in the quarter-final.

“It’s a massive ask. Our odds will be very long and we are big underdogs, but I don’t mind that. Ultimately, what happens is down to us…”

Newcastle United head coach Steve Bruce: “They [Oxford] are a decent side. It’s live on the TV and they’ll want the underdogs to turn us over, so we have to be wary of that.

“If we can go and get to the fifth round this week and be on 31 league points, I think we’d have accepted that, no matter how we got there. In difficult circumstances over the last month we’ve shown a certain amount of resilience to get us this far.”
