Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has assured fans they will throw everything at Newcastle in Wednesday night's Carabao Cup.
Ten Hag missed yesterday's Cup presser, but his notes will appear in the club's United Review match programme.
He wrote, "As we welcome Eddie Howe and Newcastle United to Old Trafford, our focus moves back to the Carabao Cup and a reminder of how well we did to win this competition last season.
Our game management throughout that cup run, especially in the final against Newcastle, showed our ability to rise to big occasions and Wednesday night is definitely another big occasion for us.
We always want to do as well as we possibly can in every competition we enter. We know how good it feels to lift this trophy and, as holders, we want to get back to Wembley Stadium again this season and defend the Carabao Cup.
Against a strong opponent we know that we will have to be at our very best if we want to progress in this competition.
This is cup football and there is no second chance if we don't perform on the night."
