Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe admits their growing injury list is becoming a concern.

Sven Botman and Callum Wilson were missing for Saturday's win against Burnley.

He said: "We've always believed we've got some really good players here. The problem for us, with the amount of games we have, is if we get injuries in one area. Unfortunately, at the moment, it's all attackers, plus Sven, that are injured, which is a blow.

"It's obviously going to stretch us, but hopefully with the international break coming, it will be a good time, fingers crossed, to get the majority of them back if we can, and then our squad will look really strong.

"The players that have come in, it's great experiences for them. I think they have done well, and that will lift us long term. "It's a great thing for us to see."
