Bentaleb on the bench and replaced by a player who does even less running.
I'll be more than happy to be wrong on this one mac .Disagree with your thinking on this one PM
We can't break teams down even with runners on the team - we need an unlocked in the side somewhere
Shelvey is our leading scorer and most creative player so I can understand why Bruce is playing him.
I've got to give him credit for changing things because this is on him and he can't blame Rafa
im my eyes there's only one thing worse than Mike Ashley, it's Newcastle losing a football game.
I'll be more than happy to be wrong on this one mac .
At the moment my faith lies with Villa Watford and Norwich rather than our own players.
Especially when I see the formation we are going with today.
Golf waterlogged yet again so an afternoon finding a different kind of stream.
Dubravka, Manquillo, Fernandes, Lascelles, Rose, Hayden, Shelvey, Ritchie, Almiron, Gayle, Joelinton.
Bench: Darlow, Schar, Saint-Maximin, Lejeune, Yedlin, Longstaff, Bentaleb
Looks like a 4-4-2, just as Bruce has managed to get some consistent form going.
Interesting to see the Saint on the bench.
Ha ha maybe even an overhead one ....It'll be interesting to see how it pans out
Our wingbacks have been shite both in defence and going forward so something had to give.
Shelvey to set Joelinton up for a scissor kick winner...
Not a bad shout that.I would imagine Lascelles has had a say
We have been weak as piss on the flanks, leaving the central 3 over ran on many occasions
