Newcastle United lost 3-0 at Everton on Thursday night but there's no time to dwell with a trip to Tottenham Hotspur next up tomorrow.
The Magpies were once again without several key players for the visit to Goodison Park as late goals from Dwight McNeil, Abdoulaye Doucoure and Beto inflicted their joint-heaviest defeat of the campaign on part with Brighton & Hove Albion.
And while Jamaal Lascelles added to the lengthy injury list in the closing stages, Eddie Howe is hopeful of welcoming back some members of his squad at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
"That's the beauty of football, you always have another game," said Howe after the loss to Everton. "Of course, we have another game in a few days time and that's the schedule we have in December. It's a really big ask for the players.
"We are desperate to get some players back that can make a difference. Hopefully that will happen. But of course, there are no guarantees."
He added: "The players who are injured at the moment were working today at the training ground so I'm hopeful we can get some support."
