The international break is still in full flow, but we’re already looking ahead to this weekend’s game against Newcastle.
That’s perhaps especially wise given that it’s the early kickoff, so there’s even less time than usual to let players recover.

The Athletic have today reported that neither are going to feature – at least from the start – against the Magpies.
