Steve Bruce has announced his starting eleven for the today’s big match at Carrow Road.
TEAM NEWS
Here’s how Newcastle United will line up for this afternoon’s @premierleague game at @NorwichCityFC. #NUFC pic.twitter.com/diRag1LEXU

As was reported earlier, Sean Longstaff is not in the first eleven but will be on the bench. The very experienced Ki Sung-yueng comes in for Sean in the midfield three alongside Isaac Hayden and Jonjo Shelvey.
Emil Krafth also comes in to make his debut at right wing-back with Javier Manquillo moving to the bench.
The rest of the team remains unchanged though Allan Saint-Maximin’s hamstring injury will not be risked as he is not in the team today.
This is the Norwich team that the lads will face this afternoon. It’s great to see Tim Krul back in the Premier League where he belongs.
? TEAM NEWS ?
Here's our squad to face @NUFC today at 3pm ??#ncfc

Comment #122Joe looks terrible today. A quality forward would never ever miss a classic header like that. He almost looks like hes carrying a slight injury because I font remember him this slow.

Comment #130Dummett was pushed on ot that corner. Should have been a freekick to us.
Then we leave their most dangerous man wide open on the corner.
We’re going down.
Too many players coasting, too many casual, too many unfocused.
Only really Ritchie and Hayden on it and maintaining last season’s standard.

Comment #131No more than they deserve. Showing more hunger, organisation and ability than us. At what point is it ok to say Bruce out?

Comment #134Almiron and Joelinton need to show much more or Gayle/Carroll will take their place no problem when back fit.

Comment #137We might as well not have Ki on the pitch. As much as Longstaff wasn’t great against Arsenal, Ki has looked non existent.

Comment #140Smith out. As much as I don’t like him, one has to admire his bravery today. Class.

Comment #141Ki and Shelvey are too static to make anything happen. We have to rely on Hayden to move up from midfield and Almiron and Joelinton coming deep to make something happen. Not looking positive.

Comment #154Rafa wanted upgrades in both full back areas , in midfield and up front as well as keeping Rondon and Perez and you can see why quite clearly!!
Can see why Shelvey wasn’t getting a game we needed to be signing someone like Wijnaldum again in midfield someone with pace and who can actually pass and move!
352 needs to be dropped at half time with Muto coming on for KI or Shelvey

Comment #158Problem is, joelinton is no rondon. He can’t hold up the play and give us platform.
Joelinton looks AWFUL SIGNING AT 40M.
