      by

      KIERAN TRIPPIER has warned Liverpool that Newcastle are far better prepared for Sunday’s Carabao Cup final than they were two years ago.And that even extends to changing their hotel — in the hope it changes their luck.Kieran Trippier has warned Liverpool that Newcastle are far better prepared for the Carabao Cup final nowCredit: PAToon right-back Trippier says the emotion of the 2023 showpiece at Wembley was overwhelming for Eddie Howe’s squad as they lost 2-0 to Manchester United.It was Newcastle’s first major final since 1999 and the pressure was on to deliver a first major domestic trophy since 1955, with the local players particularly feeling the heat.Trippier, however, says the squad are much more relaxed now as they prepare to take on Arne Slot’s men.The Magpies claimed a 1-0 win at West Ham on Monday in their last game before Sunday’s final.READ MORE IN footballAnd former England defender Trippier, 34, said: “There was a lot of noise the first time in the final.“But now the lads have experienced it, we know how to handle it. It’ll be a different feel this time.

It’s about learning. The club learned a lot from the first time around.The emotion in the first cup final got the better of us, I can’t say an individual but as a group.Kieran Trippier“A lot more things are well organised this time. I’m not saying it was bad last time but we’re more prepared because we’ve been in this position now.“We played United in the last cup final and we’re more relaxed.“Now we’ve just got to review this game and look forward to another special occasion at the weekend against Liverpool.”After back-to-back defeats — in the Prem by Liverpool and Brighton in the FA Cup — as well as losing forward Anthony Gordon to suspension plus defenders Sven Botman and Lewis Hall to injury, Newcastle still saw off the Hammers to go into the final on a high.Bruno Guimaraes converted Harvey Barnes’ 63rd-minute cross to seal three points and take Toon back into the Premier League’s top six.They are now just two points off the top four in the race for the Champions League places, which has proved to be a tough balancing act alongside their run to the Carabao Cup final.Boss Howe and his players know they will have to perform much better than they did at the London Stadium if they are to make history against Liverpool on Sunday.Trippier added: “We know how close it is at the top of the table, so it was a big win, especially before the final.READ MORE SUN STORIES“You want to win any game before a cup final, you don’t want to go in on the back of a defeat.“But we know we can improve and we’ve got to show that same character on the weekend.”Trippier will lead Newcastle into the Carabao Cup finalCredit: Reuters More
