This is the team Eddie Howe has named for this afternoon’s match against Wolves. It has five changes from last weekend’s defeat at Manchester City with an altered front three.
Howe has made some drastic changes with Alexander Isak in for Wilson and Saint-Maximin returning to the starting eleven. The Frenchman is in for Anthony Gordon who unfortunately isn’t in the squad.
It appears Howe’s praise of Jacob Murphy wasn’t lip service as he comes in for Miguel Almiron on the right. It’s Murphy’s first league start since the win at Southampton in early April.
Here is who Julen Lopetegui has selected for Wolves.
Newcastle have a chance to climb to 5th in the table while adding to the cushion to Fulham and Brighton in the battle for a top-six finish. Howe has made the changes at the top of the pitch to hopefully spark the attack back to life.
Howay The Lads!

Comment #81watching Bein and listening to _Ruud talk about his time, wow its a good story, he conveniently leaves out that he dropped Rob Lee and sent to train with the kids, the biggest game in our calendar is sunderland, he benches both Ferguson and Shearer and plays i think James Coppinger or some other kid.
like I said good story, i think Ruud and Jail went to the same course on lying

Comment #85If Jiminez has any sense — he’ll not go anywhere near Schar to challenge for headers. Schar must have a real reputation amongst opposition players by now.
