Friday saw United's stars go through their final preparations ahead of Saturday's Premier League fixture at Tottenham Hotspur.

The Magpies travel to White Hart Lane on the back of successive victories over Aston Villa and Chelsea, which provided a real boost to their hopes of climbing the top flight table.

After midweek international fixtures, it was a full complement of players for manager Alan Pardew and his coaching staff to work with at their Benton-based Training Centre, with the likes of French internationals Moussa Sissoko and Yohan Cabaye back in action on Tyneside.

And Club Photographer Ian Horrocks was there to capture the best of the action for this exclusive gallery of images.
