NUFC vs Leicester

Be great to score early to knock them back. They held their own at home until Liverpool scored but fell apart after that and could have lost by more.

Good players, very poor team-reminds me of us the last time we went down.

We've been magnificent this season and the players will deserve every bit of acclaim that comes their way whether we win or not.

We should, like.

Someone hoy the team up when it comes out, I've got to go to training. :(

Barns and Maddison on the bench for Leicester that’s very strange

Bit of a risk to start Longstaff would have been nice to see Anderson or Gordon get a start and keep Longstaff fresh for Chelsea.

Pope, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn; Longstaff, Bruno, Joelinton, Isak, Wilson, Miggy.

Yup, a nice 5th minute strike from Isak would help the party along.

Odd that the manager would say that as well.

Clear indication they are off?

'We decided to change it'
Newcastle v Leicester (20:00 BST)


Leicester City

Leicester boss Dean Smith speaking to Sky Sports on why James Maddison and Harvey Barnes are on the bench: "We decided to change it. We need to be harder to beat. The last couple of games, we have needed lots of goals to win them so we needed to make a change. We picked a team we feel can compete.

"I had to think long and hard about it. Watching the game against Brighton, the first two goals are from set-pieces and I wanted another centre-back in the team.

"They were professional about it. I want them to be disappointed if they're not playing but they see the bigger picture and understand why.

"With both Kelechi Iheanacho and Jamie Vardy, we're not coming here just to not get beat but to win the game. We want to create chances as well and be competitive against a good team.

"The good thing is before the weekend started it wasn't in our hands but it is for now. We want to keep it that way."
