Hhtoon Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Damn, hope he's fit but better to not risk exacerbating long term if needs be. Loved Fraser's interview when he talks about both of them on the right being the shortest players on the pitch but how it feels like he's got a monster next to him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Got to question if he would have even got injured if Bruno had started. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Pessimist in me says he'll prolong the injury if he plays against Villa, this is Newcastle after all, and on that basis I'd be more comfortable if he was rested. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) If he's out, I would start Bruno - no tactical reason but think it would galvanise the crowd who might otherwise be gutted that KT isn't playing.

They'll be gutted, but that will galvanise them. I know what you're saying, but I think if Trippier is out then you replace him and don't mess with anything else. Bringing on Bruno at 60 mins will revitalise the crowd, if needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 If he can’t start I’d still have him on the bench then send him to warm up where he can be an extra coach on the sidelines Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I’ve a feeling he injured himself celebrating his goal bizarrely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I'm worried playing him if he's not 100%. We've seen some decisions that Howe.has made that we haven't agreed with, like playing Clark and then we're fucked by the decision. Gut feeling, don't play him if there is even a 5% chance he can damage it further. We're NUFC, not all good things ever stay the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Not his first muscle* injury in recent seasons by the looks of it. Don’t know if this is the same leg, but probably better to be safe than sorry if it is. Manquillo isn’t Trippier, but he’s been decent for a good while now. The biggest loss will be on set pieces, but might be balanced out by having a 6’7” diversion to chuck into the mix alongside the CBs, Wood, and Joe.

bowlingcrofty Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 It was when he slid in to stop the cross for Townsend and he got dummied, just after the goal I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Any risk and we should sit him out. I would say it ups the pressure to play Bruno in midfield, because we'll need someone to play through instead. With both new fullbacks out for this game, some expectations management might be wise.

With a card like that, you have to think “how many women could I get!” Lol, no I’m being a big kid. When I was a child in the early 1990s, my bedroom wall was covered in posters of newcastle players from Match magazine and the like. Steve Watson, Clarke, Super Les, Peacock, Ruel Fox etc. That card makes me want to do that all over again!

Thiago Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 If he's not 100% and there's a sniff of making it worse don't risk him. Let Manquillo take over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
