Coloccini warns Newcastle: Forget derby, focus on Cup

Newcastle United captain Fabricio Coloccini says the players will be totally focused on their Capital One Cup tie with Tottenham.

The Toon also meet Sunderland this weekend.

"For us it is a dream, (it is) unbelievable," said Coloccini.

"We need to think about the game in 90 minutes and try to beat them. For us it is very important. We're thinking only about Tottenham for now.

"It's very important for us, the city and the club. Hopefully we can do it."
