Newcastle boss Eddie Howe says he won't tinker with his line-up for tomorrow's clash at Southampton.

Howe insists he won't rotate his XI for now.

He said: “I think it's a very important message. I think if players come into the team & think that even if they perform they'll come straight out again then there's no reward for that performance. That's something I wanted to try and create.

“What you don't want to do is pick the same team because you've won the game but tactically have a problem in the next game. You have to be careful not to go blindly into the next match. We've picked the same team but we've adapted in games because the challenges are different.

"We'll look to make the right decisions for the team. I think with the run we've been on I've been reluctant to change things because the team had lacked rhythm for a long time so when you get it you want to try and enhance not disrupt it.

“It doesn't mean I don't believe in the players I'm not using, that's the key thing. I believe in them and I believe they can all play a huge role in the future, but I've just got to deal with the here and now."
