Recent Squad Updates
The Magpies Manager Admits Disappointing Display
Newcastle performed horrible in their previous match versus West Ham, as their manager recently stated in his before the game interview. “We must deliver a performance different. That day against West Ham was difficult for the team. We trust, we have learned plenty. Now we need to start picking up results.”
On the winger: “He wasn’t close ultimately. Medical imaging showed a very slight issue with his hip and it’s an excellent chance for Harvey Barnes to come in.”
Forest Still Miss Important Striker
Still no Chris Wood for Forest, while Matz Sels, the defender, Anderson and Dan Ndoye are back.
The German forward replaces the goal-shy the Everton loanee, who had difficulties against Brighton last week.
The Eagles See Return of Playmaker However Miss Defender
Adam Wharton returns for Crystal Palace but there will be no Marc Guéhi in the squad. The Seagulls field an unchanged starting eleven which defeated the Yorkshire side in their last outing.
