Alan Pardew is hopeful that Newcastle can be a threatening force in the league over the next three seasons, with trophies as a top priority.

Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has set his sights on bringing silverware to the Sports Direct Arena in the next three years.

The Magpies are just five points adrift of a Champions League spot and have the chance to go two points closer with a victory over Liverpool this Sunday.

"You just want to be in there competing, and we have done that," said Pardew. "Whether we get a European place will probably be decided by fate more than anything. We have had a great season regardless of the European spot, and we want to do that again next year.

"By hook or by crook, in the next three years it would be nice to get some sort of European football or win a trophy. That's the goal."

This year's campaign is only the second consecutive season in the top flight for the North East side.
