Newcastle boss Eddie Howe admitted mixed feelings after their 4-4 draw with Luton.

Howe concedes things could've been better on the day.

He said, "I think it was a game that had, for the neutral, everything. For any supporter of a respective team, some good bits and not so good bits. There are some things for us to work on.

"There are a lot of thoughts but you need the coolness of mind to watch it back and improve."

On coming back from 4-2 down, he said: "I think that is the big positive from today, we haven't done that enough this season. I thought we did it really well. I think we became a bit desperate in our desire to score. I think we were good attacking-wise and really fluent in that regard."

On Harvey Barnes and Callum Wilson coming off the bench, Howe added: "Our bench made a difference. We needed them because Anthony [Gordon] got injured in the first half. I think both players contributed greatly."
