Gold Deon Dreyer Federico found as Jamal A sells Karen Clark and Marc Rich a key son young and Mo D. Ya may I.O.C. Perez and Christine at soon who came in for a surprise start at Everton and didn't do badly although we could have won the game for Newcastle with a couple of chances at the end and Salamone around on who's got 3 goals in his last $44.00 busy in the 11 in all competitions for Newcastle this season up front the bench Freddie Woodman the keeper having a monkey Oh Paul Dummett Good to see him back likewise Kennedy who was not involved at Goodison Park because of a toe injury shorn Longstaffe your shin or removed and Hossa Lou B.B.C. Newcastle radio for the Northeast Good afternoon from Matthew Ray's back and John Anderson. At home and. What do you what message do you think it sends out if it is 3 center halves and 5 at the back because it has worked for Newcastle this season at times when they've gone without but it's in James's Park with men behind the ball and an extra defend is that going to indicate to supporters that that approach is going to be extra cautious today not necessarily I think it's all about what works for you and we've seen that the 3 center back especially way from home as well as world haven't seen it here is an James's. The only problem is. You just feel that it will settle rough of Anita's that is will set up exactly the same way as he sets up away from home hope in the teams are going to come out and. Try and hit them on the break no if wolves. I think wolves may do what I. Would have wolves decide to sit in and. Invite your son to them it's a little bit. Of a stalemate. But from the games that I've seen werewolves being involved they like to get at sides they like to get get the ball forward they like to get players forward whether that be at home or to be away self. I think he's banking on wolves comin and having a go wolves are 13th in the Premier League table they've got 19 points from 15 matches Newcastle as I said will go 14th if they avoid defeat but there will be a bit of a gap between the 2 although Newcastle can close it to 3 if they are successful here this afternoon and that gap in the table if Newcastle don't win will obviously widen to what Foote who will then be in 13th on 20 points and the legacy poses in danger of being split into thirds isn't it up more in the middle and obviously you could always go see the tops but that will be seeing that in the table now if Wolves pull away yeah yeah I think it's always been the case though raise it out as it's being called into 3 sections there's the top 67. Does not middle section and then there's the bottom 6 or 7 you know I think that's always been the case. You would like to be in the middle section you'd like to be in the top section but it. Definitely but I don't think that's going to be the case for a while. The wanting you don't want to do is lose the wolves here today because then all of a sudden they open up a 9 point gap on you. You know and that's that's a significant gap at this stage of the season but look it was a good point on ones the one. You know we had chances at the end to win it unfortunately we couldn't take them but you would have taken a point at Everton before kick off so. It's all about the win home games you know we were disappointing here the last day against West Ham got a go to put up behind us and see if we can go back and start winning football matches he reckons it's quite a nice afternoon it's in James's Park not too chilly and dry the flood lights are on here. Still some blue sky up above and clouds moving across in James' Park so obviously not dark yet. But you need the floodlights on early at this time of yeah just the Newcastle goalkeepers warming up a moment no sign of any of the wolves players a lot they have a range some bowls and some cones and some discs. And a few other pieces of operators for their warm up around the Newcastle penalty area looks like a little hurdle of the side of the pitch. It's obviously part of their pre-match routine wolves who were promoted to the Premier League as Championship winners last season on 99 points of picked up some impressive results against the big sides notably that 21 win against Chelsea on Wednesday they came from behind to get 3 points they've also drawn away to Manchester United and Arsenal but it's against the teams that you may fancy them to pick up points against that they've struggled they lost to Cardiff away they were beaten at home by Huddersfield recently and knew no experience so sound so their manager was under a bit of pressure until they got that win in midweek but he hasn't kept faith with the side that so rough Chelsea he's made 3 changes Reuben never as he was suspended . Comes in Adama try already the former Middlesbrough it cost $18000000.00 pounds in the summer and scored a winning goal in injury time at West Ham in September will play and he is a danger and how that cost he may remember it was Wolves big money signing in the championship season that Newcastle competed in a Portuguese wing at returns to the starting 11 the players who go out. The Portuguese international midfielder who scored at Manchester United in a one all draw at rouse him in as a striker and Morgan Gibbs the White a player who came through their academy made his 1st start against Chelsea in power comes around the show yeah it's strange one I mean read the reports on the Chelsea game partly the young boy. Gives why he played exceptionally well tons of scenery he looks real talent he looks a real real good player and obviously north north in the long you know. He's. We've seen it here you know you see young players and. They get in the side and then obviously he's trying to protect them to a degree but I felt he would have played today but there you go he's made the changes. Try already flying machine you know exceptionally quick. So you would think they will look to go get him on the ball get in behind us but tough game it's a tough game you know that they've come up they spent they spent a fair bit of money as well wolves have been short in our view yeah to get up and now to try to stay up yeah you know and they tried to play through midfield and they you know as I said doesn't matter whether our home or away they like to get the ball forward and like Doherty he would bomb on this right side. Not not the greatest offensively. Should be up to say it's a game I'm looking forward to it's I think it's a little bit more intriguing now that he's gone we're assuming that he's gone with 3 center backs and it'll be it'll be a bit like a chess game. Well it's like for like I suppose we'll give you the Newcastle team again in a moment here on B.B.C. Newcastle but we're on the subject of wolves in their side with those 3 changes. The Portuguese international. 18000000 pounds from Sporting Lisbon in the summer a big signing for them the 3 center hogs are Ryan Bennett who has played against Newcastle in the Premier League and in the championship for Peterborough nearly a decade ago Conoco date is the captain and he's in the middle of the 3 center hearts and Willie bubbly Frenchman who arrived from Porto permanently in the summer will play at the left and on the right mark dockets e Irish international on the left. Is Ruben Vinaya great. Who is a 19 year old Portuguese player was on loan from Monaco last season permanent in the summer I've been a great one of quite a few wolves play is that's come from Monaco and one of a number of Portuguese players in their squad another one Rubin never as. He was in international for Portugal and returns from suspension for this one Romaine sysfs plays alongside him in the middle only as 5th the parents of the season in the Premier League and you may remember roaming sayst the Moroccan was the player involved in an incident with Jonjo Shelvey 2 years ago that So Shelvey receive a 5 match ban for racial abuse that was in wolves victory here in the Championship in September 26th Shelvey didn't appeal against the suspension but he has. Maintained since that there was no racial abuse towards size so he plays in midfield alongside nevers Adama triall right on the right the cost on the left and up front Diogo. Another Portuguese player got his 1st league all of the season against Chelsea but was the top scorer in the Championship with 17 John Ruddy is the substitute keep up also on the wolves bench today even couple yaro. Rival him in as Morgan gives the youngster who we've just been talking about. International on loan from and elect and Leo on the team Brazilian. Attacker. So United 3 changes to the team that drew one all with Everton to go yet Len on the right side we think Richie on the left side with 3 center halves. Fernandez Lascelles and Clark K. . In the middle of midfield Richie comes back in at suit keeps his place round on. Top and I as a Perez also in the Newcastle United side have given you Ritchie twice have a nice Yes 12 Richie at left back or left wing back Perez and either side of round on confusing with all these changes personnel and positionally and in terms of formations Anyway that's the Newcastle United team I'm sure you've got it Dabrowski Gatlin Lascelles Fernandez Clarke Ritchie make a absoute Perez run down there we got 11 this time not 12 on the bench would meant the keeper. Kennedy back as well from injury Longstaffe MUITO in hostile no Shelvey in the 18 Rafa Benitez with more changes today is having to use his squad at the moment shows crucial especially now Christmas thing you have people available and when they have to play they were always there means for me they are good professionals they train well and they give everything for these teams show that is quite positive when you have a lot of. Different type of test against Wolves but what are the positives that you can take into Sunday I think the protection of the team the team spirit was quite good you could see the last few minutes when they were pushing and pushing. Everybody would working so hard the quite possibly for the rest of the season so. You see this game is totally different they play 5 in the fight for one so if you want to break break them down and they all have to be pressurized you have to be sure that the weekend sustained it in belief is possible and we can sustain that dogs but they're still there very Then using country and that they used to play the same system for a while with the same money and they have to class players because they have to play in the universe or in the Champions League so it will be totally different and will be a tough test for us live from St James's. The scene you cast some people need please the northeast. Much more from Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez before the game kicks off at 4 o'clock we'll also hear from the south the captain and Federico who spoke to B.B.C. Newcastle after the one all draw with adverts and on Wed in the state evening. Rafa Benitez assessing the challenge that wharves will bring He says a different type of test to the one that Everton provided. But Newcastle home today John Anderson with the planned boycott. Having be counseled or action from fans groups against the owner Mike Ashley who remains in control of the club despite saying that a takeover is more progress than ever and we know there is interest from a few parties including one led by Peter Kenyon The former Chelsea and Manchester United chief executive but there's no significant news at the moment regarding a takeover. The fans are giving Ashley and interested parties the opportunity to as they put it have a clear run at reaching a deal and they've also said that if nothing happens. Action in terms of protests will resume after the January transfer window but we're going to see it's in James's Park today and maybe there will be some individuals that have decided to stay away and won't come but probably and Nellie falls in James's Park supporting the players yeah look at it's everybody's prerogative to do what they feel is right you know if people believe the boy in the game was right and are still going to do it that's that's entirely up to them and they have that right to do that people want to comb the game and support the side if that's their right as well it's it's all about people doing what they feel is right. From their own from their own point of view you know they've got to do what they feel is right from their point of view but. I'm not too sure. What's going to happen with this take over raising you know we been here before we've heard all the speculation before. I said earlier in the week I'm very skeptical of it all. On the until the I's are dotted T.'s are crossed. You know I will still have more of my own reservations and you know people people will feel differently about it people will. Well want to believe and I think the majority of people want to believe I think we all want to believe that. This is a deal that could happen whoever it may be which. But we're just going to have to wait and see whether Dr delist called common enough. Let's say now on B.B.C. Newcastle radio for the northeast from Christiane Atsu who keeps his place in the team today for Newcastle United here against Wolves he made only 2nd Premier League start of the season at Everton the other was here at St James's against Leicester in September the 26 year old winger spoke to B.B.C. Newcastle at Goodison Park after one stays much we wanted to bring that game very near the Everton are very good team. And they are very good on their ball and they create a lot of chances but. We have very happy that we also have their point across and I think Rick Perry very good and you came back into the team tonight how do you look back on your contributions. I was mentally prepared to score in this game you can see I was always in that box and always trying to shoot trying to do something for the team but I had the chances that I could have scored but I was it was on for the night I couldn't go I'm very happy that. I contribute actually separate from your question and then. You have very happy that I would have come from him if you mention the chance at the end I think you had a defender either side if you wish the pressure coming into that put you off balance a bit. I will watch the video after and then see. How I can prove it with those kind of his directions I think I could have control one more want this and then the maybe I am good closer to the 2 that go bowling because of my rightful . I'm very happy that we had that point from from from. Against everything the manager made 3 changes tonight is Richie suspended it's been injured as well so for players like you who's been on the bench recently do you have to be both patient and ready to come in and play like you did the saving is always very hard when you're on the bench because. You need to work extra. To get to be fit for games you know so. I told my friend that. We have to do something to stay in the team you know because it's a competition and you know so when they get him to try to do something I'm happy for me for them and that's the assist and. When they're very rich in the way we are prepared to to have with them and moments like this it can be very good not if you ring their game and there were statements of you counsel and some good commentary exclusive a lawyer B.B.C. New Castle radio for the northeast. That's the voice of Newcastle United Christiern out to 3 changes today the team is deprived caring Yadlin Fernandez Lascelles clock and Richie We expect about $53.00 center half to get. Perez and sue the side of round on an attack on Newcastle United bench is Woodman. It. Longstaffe Kennedy mucho and hasa Lou No Shelvey in the squad 4 o'clock kick off against Wallace here at St James's Park for the next few minutes let's look back at yesterday's day's action and find out what else is happening today he is calling White thank you very much Marty will be back with Matthew and join us he says in about 5 minutes time before anything else though the 1st thing I have to tell you about is an extraordinary achievement by Daron the women are earlier today they defeated Manchester United by 3 goals to one in front of a record crowd of 912 new Theron's Park Becky Beth Apple and Zoe NASS were the goal scorers the some debate over whether the 1st goal was an own goal though Manchester United had not been beaten in the league this season and they were the only fool time team in the women's championship as well the result moves down to within a point of the report and at the top of the table and Captain Cyril Wilson says they had a game plan and it worked always absolutely I think you just got away attack these games went with North Korea. Kept the squad fairly fairly the same played the same play as approach the game in the exactly we were there any of that game it was just really important that we focused on was so darn woman Captain Cyril Wilson there another local side near the top of their table or Gateshead they cemented their place inside the National League play off places with a 2 nil win over Bromley at the International Stadium yesterday Fraser Cara scored the winner in the 2nd half following a 1st half strike from look Armstrong who was quite calm to work in the US Phil the 1st off we don't win is on and off the ball with one or 7 balls was on the ball we were really comfortable and created a lot of chances that enough was different and we're still comfortable and again they don't really get many chances but I see you get a 2nd goal that was massive and we knew we could just kill again from there and your own contribution today made a real difference with the deliveries for the goals and your all round display how do you reflect. The way you performed Yes hello good performances again 2 assists is day for me on the 1st one. Yes Throughout the gathering is obviously still things that it will consume again when people try to offer or rather fill out a good performance Gateshead striker look Armstrong beeping speaking even to B.B.C. Newcastle's and Matthew Razorback Sunderland's League One much at Akron Stanley was finally poised at one all in the 74th minute yesterday when the top and polish it off to do that many will remember this column I was going to call it off is a page called El he said to the players to the call that they play as the game I should to the dressing room by the referee they did it again they were caught in fear and outside of me not a Paladin. So it's as if yesterday's game didn't happen at all the full 90 minutes were to be replayed on a date yet to be decided and Sunderland manager Jack Ross had no complaints with the decision when the game's slave over seemed nice an easier decision much for the much issues like that everybody except you know it makes it sounds a bit the game start and I think that we were borderline of it in Playboy and obviously conventions take that loss and thinks that if you see it notice you can't play on that was it does become you know something of a U.R.L. That Fosse a bit after the tsunami watches or this isn't on we'll hear much more from Jacques Ross at half time in the Newcastle United much the draw was made yesterday evening for the Women's World Cup finals to be played in France next summer England if you remember finished 3rd in the tournament in Canada 4 years ago Scotland have qualified for the Women's World Cup for the 1st time in their history and next summer in nice on the 9th of June they will play each other we'll hear from the Scotland boss Shelley care in just a moment but 1st here's the England manager Phil Neville I think both sets of players know each other inside out a lot of them play in the same clubs together Arsenal in a city really dug a great spirit about them something good is that many Scottish Women's Football solve is going to be real tough start to the group I know everyone will talk of a. What happened in the year was but what we have to focus on is a field trip and not just one opponent so we know it's going to be tough and it was going to be tough to ever be true by cynics saying to Israel that the Scotland boss Shelley Carroll before her the England women's monitor Phil Neville and basketball Newcastle Eagles take a slender 2 point lead into today's 2nd leg of their B.B.L. Cup semifinal against London a Lions lot after winning a tense 1st like on Friday night by just 75 points to 73 today's match up a copper box arena tips off in about half an hour's time at 4 o'clock in ice hockey quickly Warriors have the chance for revenge against Hull pirates a night they were beaten 72 away from home by the same opponents yesterday today's game at Hill heads gets underway at 5 o'clock and finally it's the final of the U.K. Snooker Championship at the Barbican in New York the afternoon between running O'Sullivan and Mark Allen Ronnie O'Sullivan is currently leading by 5 frames to 2 it is the 1st to 10 we will have more on all of those things out half time and at full time in the Newcastle United much but time to return doesn't James Park in the company of my theories back and Johnson on rapid C.A.I.B.

New Castle and some good commentary exclusively like B.B.C. New Castle the only place the north east sports. Bar by the downstairs then do ya mate I think they could have this guy place to get away with it down the left he's about 5 yards from the area now Jacob the only wrong done in that. Getting up as well he looks forward to a New Castle of gold shake up Murphy with the delivery man making only good Premier League start of the season got away left Time side it's a fantastic goal in the Solomon road John who didn't get much service at the weekend one cross tonight has found him on the wrong done is finished right footed from inside the 6 yard box into the roof of the next day watch a great ball he does great he just goes. Cold and just knocks it and just whips it into an area around the back he can't really miss it's a wicked ball played in by the British. Just with a cross. To say good shot but how do you want to drop say just to go and get a big pats on the back from us and deprive him for it it's a cold but I longed it secrets and want to hit it but to cry pluck I mean he's just shown his body in the way of it brilliant great defendant comes the corner right footed tossed out. Of the thank you Alison. Thank you. THANK YOU THANK YOU HAVE A GOOD ONE. You know I think. You would say. Down south that John to keep fighting we didn't. Want to come in around the back when you talk. Share and find a corner of the area down the line you will want to say off was a remark to defrock I'm not sure how much he knew about good got. Such a vital piece of gold keeping the score. Somehow was still in it. For Perez edge of the. And he did he said think Christiane I told the Chinese but they keep out when either side of Jordan paid for it and it surely to one Newcastle . Pigs make Chelsea stool Chante be seeing it's not the only piece of the North East sports. And you had the goals on some highlights from the one all draw with Everton and made weight John Anderson it was a very encouraging performance and a very gratifying result not least because not many people would have expected it before the game and I think include ourselves Yeah because Everton is a ground when you cast a bad record and they're a talented side what we did we most definitely would have taken a point prior to the game I mean prior to kick off if somebody had said We'll take a point now take them on majority supporters would have said yes I. Suppose you know if you want to be greedy you could say that we could have won and we had a couple of chances. To win the game but he went there with a game plan and I don't think there's anybody better set up away from home to get a result on the rough of the neatness you know he sets aside people know what's expected and got plenty of bodies behind the ball hilarious and then try and break and saw it. And it it worked very very well at Everton it almost worked perfectly actually because of the chances that we had at that but there you go but as I said you would have taken a point before he loves an away game doesn't Amy love the challenge of going somewhere and putting the Newcastle team into a formation and working on a game plan with them and of course it's very satisfying when it pays off which it did yeah I think he would probably prefer to play all the games away from home because. You know it took to it's up to the home team to come and have a go. Talk to them to to be positive to dominate the ball and he likes that sort of. Tactical game where he can sew people on to them and then break and break with pace hence the reason move you not see where in the side to of his he keeps his place today no movie not even in the 18. As I say worked really really well different at home of course because you're expected to get on the ball than us you're expected to take the game to the opposition. No he's gone like today it's going to be really really interesting to see how this one pounds a B.B.C. Newcastle radio for the no faced Newcastle with 3 changes it's to go on and as Lascelles and Clarke 3 center Hobbs Yadlin and Richie are the side key and in the middle Perez and Atsu supporting the run in attack a bunch of Woodman Dummett Kennedy. And long staff Murphy who set up the goal the other night doesn't even make the 18 there's no Jonjo Shelvey Either way not sure why Shelvey misses out you have to assume it's an injury but we will ask Rafa Benitez after the game exactly what the reason is. The returns from a hamstring injury to the bench candidate who missed the match in midweek with a toe injury will be welcome inclusions in the squad for the Newcastle United manager that's for sure. They have 13 points on go from 15 games a season on season if you want to compare They had 15 points from 16 which was at that point the lowest tally. At that point in a Premier League season so they would need to win to be ahead of where they were at this stage 12 months ago when of course they were on a really bad run no winning I think defeats out of 9 wasn't it with only the drawer West Brom in that sequence. I think Wednesday was important wasn't it because of how disappointing West Ham was in the play a show that they could respond gave the manager exactly what he was looking for but what he won't want to date is something akin to what the play is produced against West Ham and he was particularly disappointed with the way they coped mentally in that game up to going one down and then 2 down and it doesn't like to lose a toll but to lose 3 now at home is I think pretty wounding for Rafa Benitez who wants Newcastle to keep it tight and apart from Leicester at home all the other defeats had been by a very narrow margin just a single goal you obviously doesn't like to lose games but he sets a stall out to be tight defensively to not give a great deal away. And he would say that the majority of the games we are we we don't give a great deal away were solid defensively we look at you wouldn't. We as you say to the games that we lose by by narrow margins but yeah he wants a similar type of performance and most definitely will want a similar type of Scolari to what we got here against West Ham in our last home game you Castle United this season when they conceded 1st. They lost Yeah 7 times obviously took the lead at Manchester United and were beaten on at Everton in midweek the drop. Scored but the home team equalized and it finished one a pace to have the 3 wins Newcastle forward draws the game in the other 3 as I'm sure you remember all nil nil away from home Cardiff Southampton and Crystal Palace . Wolves have also made 3 changes in goal. 3 center Hobbs Ryan Bennett Khana Cody the skipper and Willie probably. Marked dockets A on the right as the wing back and Rubin van I grew up on the left Reuben never has and remained size in central midfield at Dharma try all. And how the cost of supporting. In a time. And cost of the place you come into the team for the visitors who are seeking mess 6 when of the season which. Would. Also include if they were to get it today a 3rd away when they've been victorious on the road was at Crystal Palace and West Ham both by a goal to nail and as you mentioned earlier too impressive one all draws away too much on chesty United and Arsenal but seeing now from Newcastle United Federico finance who once again was one of their top performers when they played Everton and made week the Argentine center half told B.B.C. Newcastle there were a lot of positives of really. Point here you know if it will do Graeme. Everyone. Living there were. Defensively. We had a very very slowly. I mean then we were going. To clear of chances to score. Over the noise is nicer so we're going for us on the block you made in the 1st half was so important how much pleasure does a piece of defending like that give you all were you angry that cigarettes and called the chance to shoot in the 1st place yeah I follow those strike 3 was all 3 in the mirror and I wanted to come back weakly to go to the floor because I know there was that I finished between the legs in the sand enough so I was like I'm over the board which will go the way so some bloke. On I Will we were very good we don't. Give him any space in between the lines and that's a big big thing for us how important was it to respond to the defeat by West by getting something this evening very very important very important. We live in when you're. Doing work and we know you. I was. Still. Confidence you know what to do what to do. Important point to looking for. The latest team nice going on dates and post match reaction on Twitter B.B.C. Newcastle the only place the Northeast sports Federico finance is that and whether he's one of 3 center halves so one of 2 center halves has been brilliant and we keep saying it but. What a signing he has been for only a few 1000000 pounds a deadline day arrival and possibly wouldn't have come had Florian not been injured because Newcastle wanted another center half they signed Fabien share and then moved late in the window on deadline day to get finance from Swans Yes don't very well he's been excellent since coming in he's probably. In my opinion our best player to season. Depends Well comfortable on the ball uses it well. And when you think what we paid for him in in today's market he's been an absolute . It's really strange you know we go on about center backs and we need a covert center back we've got more sense of backs now and that it's probably the one area to pitch where we've got. Plenty of cover and plenty of players you can community with job just like that strength in depth and here you have the yes without a doubt wouldn't they have the referee today is Mike Dean from the where oh it's his 1st Newcastle match since Burnley away last October which ended in a defeat and that was his only Newcastle game last season so a rare outing for Mike Dean as the man in the middle he did the North London Darby last Sunday 7 yellows and one likes rare and he is usually in charge of a game Simon who is the 4th official. On the assistance of Darren can and down the road with the B.B.C. New Castle radio for the Northeast kick off at 4 o'clock today Newcastle United against the wolves the Magpies will go back up to 14th with either a win or a draw if it finishes level they'll be 14th above Cardiff again on goal difference that's up to the Welsh team. Leapfrogged Newcastle yesterday thanks to their victory over Southampton with manager is new no spirit so Santo appointed in May of last year to the club back to the Premier League after a 6 year absence has previously managed Porto and Valencia amongst others and at Valencia he was assisted by Ian Cathro who joined Newcastle under Steve McClaren as part of the coaching staff he was in these late twenty's at the time Cathro worked in the Rafa Benitez for a bit before going to Hearts where he was head coach for a few months after I was back at some James's Park just pitch side on though talking to a few members of the Newcastle staff and. People that he remembers from his time here I'm not sure what he's up to now they're after leaving hearts he's got a Wolves top on so maybe but with. He is by with wolves and hearts of their part of their set up I didn't last long at Hearts know it now he's in charge last summer when we went up there for a friendly ahead of Newcastle's 1st season back in the Premier League yeah that most definitely didn't work out for him a little then at Hearts he went up there things didn't didn't go well and didn't last too long there but I didn't realise that he was back at Wolves and I'm not too sure what his role of wolves is to be quite honest. I think I think we may have talked about it in the summer but to be honest it is my mind that there is in Cathro. Who works in the Rafa Benitez but was. Replaced when he left to join. Hearts as head coach part of the world set up to date. The visitors haven't scored more than once in any of the 7 away matches this season but they do possess some attacking talent and. Why do you think the biggest threat will come because while there are some players who may be new to us and part of that team that got promoted or new signings we've seen Adama try all right in the middle with so much pace and can be devastating on his day how the cost there is obviously talented and Ruben never comes back in today from a one match ban it's certainly got an eyeful goal yeah I mean obviously Trey always pace and he's got bags and bags of pace just knocks it and goes exceptionally quick . Every time seen him looks a good plan of course how the cost as well so they've got good they've got technically very good players you know your comfortable on the ball obviously a lot of them of. Coach again is the manager seems to. Like his fellow countryman he's brought quite a few into into wolves put their good side you know they. They like to get it down they like to play they like to get forward. So. I don't think it's going to we should concentrate on them too I think we've got to concentrate on ourselves you know and the things that we do well. You know I think we have to be honest we should be looking to be choice like wolves here you know obviously we can watch for them repeat the ball move here disappointing. The last time out against West Ham but hopefully we can rectify it and we need to start winning games again here it's in James but I do want to talk to you about defending set pieces because Newcastle conceded 9 goals from set pieces already this season that's as many. In the entire campaign last year and they've already let in more from CONUS 5 than they did last season is not something you've noticed as a problem I mean the stats that will tell you that it is. I mean they have some heights in the team Newcastle and they have 3 center hogs in the side today again it's probably something Rafa Benitez's monitor and yeah definitely have I mean obviously we spoke about the way he likes to set up offensively. You know you did they obviously work very hard and set pieces the tendency of pieces it's something that we've in recent seasons have been pretty strong at pretty decent at the fan the put I mean to get the goal again on on Wednesday at Everton from a defensive point of view was it was a poor goal to give it away give give away it's a corner kick with in we don't go in attack it and it ends up with a pack post or a childless and just us who sit in high into the net and you know. This book. I would know that it's you you would imagine because of the way he looks the starts and wanting in and out of the manager he will look at it you know about it and this will be something that he will kind of.

You know we knew that going into the game where the game plan was so. Big man the most to score a goal. And you know. For you know then they close with and I thought. From the news open game their chances were chances and personally in the 4 we couldn't it and how important was it to respond to what happened against West Ham by getting a positive result here massive additions a character out here you know last week and actually. You know bouncing back and going to a point away from arrogance. You know it's not down. To his character and I saw your show today even when the equalise had been soundly for the past you know the team come on strong enough that you know that didn't happen you know we saw it with it. Or you know we stopped I mean you know in all areas and closer look you know it's going to 3 points with us and you're back in the site tonight after missing a few games how bad was the injury that you picked up in that match against what food. You know. What wasn't too bad you knows his pleasure going to get your knocks and. You know physios in a poor job are going to buck soon as possible so now it's just you know really building the most innocent and pushing on and the center of defense is a really strong area of the squad isn't it you've watched the last few games before tonight how impressed have you been by chef and on days on Clarke when he played at Burnley his nose competition and in this area and you know point I would. Because it pushes ourselves to you know train harder and you know trying to keep a spot you know the boys if you know that you know they don't fantastic. You know of see when I've not been playing Shaw stepped in and you know cross him got some points in a book and I said to us about it's about the squad it's not about 11 and. You know so long season's going to be known again and we need place we ready few steps in front of. More of the monitors from one and a great effort a good performance and points away from home how nice it is they set up a big matches in James's on Sunday against a clearly talented will stay. Good side. You know. So you know we need to really. Try and get as many points in the worst possible because it could be the. Crucial 1st season. You can see some good country exclusively life B.B.C. New Castle radio for the northeast. Always good to hear from the skipper Jamal a sow's speaking to us. Outside the dressing room at Goodison Park after Newcastle collected a point in Made week. Let's give you the 2 teams time before we hear from the manager Rafa Benitez with the players now back inside the changing rooms here at St James's Park 10 minutes to go until kickoff was like Newcastle 3 changes at the Portuguese international. 3 center halves are Ryan Bennett Conor Cody and Willie may remember scored a goal against Manchester City earlier in the season that went in off his hand in a draw at Molineux Daugherty the Irish international at the right wing back Rubin Vinogradov the left wing back Rubin never has remained size of a central midfield this Adama try already and how the cost either side of just to the center forward and Newcastle Martin deprive kept in goal ever present this season Federico Finland as the cells Kiran Clarke the 3 Santa. John you have an M R H 8 as wing backs unless there is a positional change that's called a sow's again like it did at Burnley we'll see when the game starts I guess I Keystone young and. I continue that partnership. Very well oiled partnership now in central midfield I was a Perez and Christina supporting Salamone Rondo on Rafa Benitez is not surprised today's visitors who are above Newcastle in the table have made a decent start back to life in the Premier League. Has. Promoted people talk about the normal team when you see the money that they spend on the planet in the Championship and the players and they have no. Place been playing the Russian live for years and the kind of. Any in Bahrain because they have the quality to do it. There's no Fabien share this weekend because he suspended and you brought the captain back against Everton Karen Clarke played at Burnley and scored Federica finance has done really well for you and you still have . Those names their thing underlined don't they just how strong that area of the team is how do you assess the competition for the places that center back whether you have 2 in the team or 3 like you have done yes through what you say we have competitions from positions by the specially center backs or we are quite happy with that so. Surely they're. Very very close so I think. It would be even better for us to to see them training and compete in every every training session because we will give us problems I saw as I say the same in the end that is good for us because the competition in every position only can be good for the team I'm sure you've seen that one group of supporters that were planning not to attend the game on Sunday have now called off their proposed boycott for you and the players how good will it be to have potentially a false in James's Park supporting you I think is good news for everyone because in the end I understand the. Idea but also I say that this group of players they support from the fans they have to have this report but if everybody now is behind the behind the team will be crucial for us every game for us is a final every game is this massive show. Everybody the support of the players can be or should good for the team and we're getting ever closer to the January transfer window opening in the last few days you've been linked to quite a few players but one name that keeps coming up is Miguel Amir on of Atlanta United What can you tell us about him and any interest from the club. So we knew that someone was talking about we made an offer to this a don't know why they made the offer. So you know we don't talk about it we don't talk about signing so on especially now that we have to go so well which she will happen in the transfer window but that we are working behind the scenes and we don't need to tell everyone what we're trying to do obviously so I understand the question but. She has to be will talk too much about that and great news story for the Northeast music scene Alfie and I practiced some funds from no shells cause he won the Critics' Choice Awards 2019 I'm feelin nauseous I didn't even expect to get nominated this is a must have to listen if you don't know the kind of people of one of the 4 Adele Yes Sam Smith.

Just in the black and white stripes black shorts and white socks the visitors will be in gold as usual are they lined up to face I sin the Milburn stand here. Now Jim on the cells leads New Castle Down the line of wolves players. Shaking hands and high 5. Head of a match that would see Newcastle pull a bit further away from the danger zone. And move to within 3 points of their opponents the south to noon Rafa Benitez with 3 changes to perhaps win and as Lascelles Clarke at the back yard line and Richie wing backs and in midfield Perez and I are 2 supporting runs on a top and a bunch of wood men. Kennedy monkey. And LONGSTAFF No Shelvey. But you will have to wonder as. Ryan Bennett Khana Cody Willie Pauly Jocketty and Ruben are weighing backs Ruben never has Romain size in center midfield Johm a try All right how the cost. Of talk with Diogo Johnson who got 17 championship goals last season got his 1st in the Premier League in Midway and that victory when they came from behind to defeat shall see. The visitors banshees John Ruddy the keeper who was number one last season but lost his place when Patricio signed in the summer even Caballero Ravel him in as a center forward on loan from Benfica Morgan Gibbs white teenager who played very well against Chelsea in midweek but back on the bench senior the Portuguese international midfielder the and.

Flag display at a gala kit and releases and the image of Lasalle still being held aloft while the black white and gold Jodie pride so a banner with images of the key side is being passed from or. To last this way look from. The corner between the stand and the Gallagher and up to the corner between a stand under leases and it's almost around the corner and the lease is now it's in James's Park. They're going to change and John Anderson and you class are going to go down the hill in the 1st yeah you obviously lost the toss hold it up as you wanted. Decided to change it around but. As you went from you don't I mean. Obviously we preferred to be. Taken down the hill for a 2nd but fortunately that's not the case that I. Said a few minutes ago on Joe that you feel Newcastle should be facing teams like wolves in James's Park How do you expect to get them to go apart from the all. I think it's going to be interesting it's going to remove going to be interesting to see what way to go about it obviously it is 3 center backs Yadlin right wing back.
