Newcastle United's head coach, Matthias Jaissle, is seeking a response from his team after their Carabao Cup defeat to Everton, and is looking to turn their frustration into motivation for their upcoming match against the same opponents. The team was knocked out of the cup at the last 16 stage after a 3-1 defeat. Jaissle believes there are positives to take from the performance, but is focused on addressing the defensive mistakes that cost them. The next match is a rematch at St James' Park.

Jaissle has emphasized the need for Newcastle to be more clinical and avoid individual errors, stating that they need to work on not conceding so many goals and avoid mistakes, especially when the opposition is not dominant. He believes that the team can build on their performance from the previous match, but needs to improve their defensive play. The reported defensive mistakes have been costly in recent matches.

The upcoming match against Everton is seen as an opportunity for Newcastle to respond to their cup exit and potentially move up to 7th in the standings. Jaissle is demanding a response from his players, stating that "the frustration needs to be turned into motivation now" and that they are "looking to get revenge on Monday night". A win could see them above Aston Villa, Bournemouth, and Spurs.
