Jack Colback: 'Manager wants us to hurt teams'

By , Reporter
Newcastle United manager Jack Colback reveals that manager Alan Pardew wants his players to be able to hurt their opponents.

Jack Colback has said that Alan Pardew wants Newcastle United to be able to hurt their opponents this season.

The Magpies have been on pre-season tours to New Zealand and Germany, winning matches against Sydney FC, Wellington Phoenix and Schalke 04.

The midfielder told the club's website: "We had to try and be professional and get our work done and we managed to get the results and came back and followed that up with a good win against Sheffield Wednesday.

"One thing the manager's said is that he wants us to be hurting teams and going on the attack. If we score a couple of goals then we won't sit back and we'll aim to push up on that. The new signings have got goals as well, which is good for them and the confidence in the team is good."

Newcastle face Huddersfield Town tomorrow evening.
