Howard (L) is leaving Welford Road at the end of the season

Victory over Wasps on Sunday would give Leicester a historic Treble and Howard said: "We've got another one to go yet.

"Winning the Premiership is a lovely moment but we are focused on that other step next week.

"We'll go in as favourites but we have never beaten Wasps in a knockout game and we have to address that."

Leicester were utterly dominant against Gloucester, winning 44-16 in a one-sided final at Twickenham.

I want them to enjoy today and then switch on tomorrow for the Heineken Cup final Tigers coach Pat Howard

The Tigers were led by their dominant pack while powerful wings Alesana Tuilagi and Seru Rabeni were no match for their opponents.

"A few things went to plan," Howard added. "The players defended their hearts out. They really wanted this.

"Defensively we worked hard, some of our clinical finishing was pretty good, we took our opportunities.

"We played well. It is great to turn out for the big days. We have been guilty of not doing that before.

"We are not a 40-point better side than Gloucester. I think the best two teams made the final and we just played better today.

"It was a very good performance, there were some lovely tries, and to repeat that next week will be a massive challenge now.

"A few blokes have already talked about next week but I want them to enjoy today and then switch on tomorrow for the Heineken Cup final."

Tigers skipper Martin Corry added: "Things went our way, especially the way we finished the first half. We take a huge amount of satisfaction from that.

"It showed we are dangerous when we have the ball. The important thing was the ball retention."

Gloucester coach Dean Ryan admitted his side were completely dominated, describing it as a mismatch in all areas.

"Today we just couldn't do it, there's no hiding from that," he said.

"The whole game is about mismatch and if you've got that across the field, in reality it was so far across the team it was difficult.

"We were probably stripped of four or five of our most physical players, we've lost physicality across the team.

This is not the end of the journey for this side Gloucester coach Dean Ryan

"In some ways it was impossible to live with their physicality. We could not deal with Tuilagi or Rabeni in the first 20 or 30 minutes and the stress of that had an attritional value later in the game.

"We didn't have the base game that would compete with Leicester."

Despite the defeat, Ryan was full of praise for his young side for topping the regular season table and reaching the Premiership final.

"This side is 12 months old. I can't hide how proud I am. This side will get better.

"This is not the end of the journey for this side, I'm immensely proud of this achievement to get here so early in their progress.

"We have had a good dose of reality that we are not good enough to win this type of competition but we have also had a massive indicator that this side is moving in the right direction.

"We have been a very competitive and successful team all year."
