Rafa Benitez has just announced the Newcastle team for the tough game at Leicester City tonight.
In spite of Mo Diame being fit Ki Sung-yueng keeps his place in tonight’s team with Paul Dummett coming in for the injured Florian Lejeune.
Javier Manquillo – starts tonight
And right-back Javier Manquillo gets a rare start coming in for DeAndre Yedlin, who is dropped and on the bench for tonight’s game.

Comment #88This is first time I have seen Leicester since Rodgers joined them; it hasn’t taken him long to impress his passing style upon his players. They could possibly be a dark horse to break top 4 next season.

Comment #90Manquino needs longer legs or our long range passing needs to seriously improve.

Comment #95OH MY WORD!! What a free kick by Rondon!! How unlucky with that effort. Bang on the top corner, with a hell of a lot of bend. What a shame that didn’t go in, would have been one of the best free kicks I’ve seen us score ever.
Hail Wor Ashley

Comment #96Oof!
Rondon really is an expert free-kick taker. 4 free-kicks 3 have hit the woodwork and 1 goal.

Comment #108Munster,
Holding our own, started brightly, maybe a bit of a lack of belief but growing in to it, Rondon almost scored the free kick of the century, and last century, and the one before.
