It's just nice to be out there and contributing. Getting your rhythm back is so important. It's always difficult early on here with their pace and power. I've had that positivity to be ready when called upon.

Shaun Goater and Michael Brown will give their reaction at the top of the page!
A brilliant comeback win for the Blues and we're in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for the eighth successive season!
Savinho got the equaliser after Harvey Barnes put Newcastle ahead before two thumping Omar Marmoush finishes.
