I suspected the wait to get Sandro in the middle has been more about Bruno learning RCM than Sandro's form/fitness.

Says a lot about Bruno that he has given up his position for the newer lad despite being amazing for us there since joining, and the fact that he’s captain as well.

 

Bruno has previously said he prefers to play higher up as an 8.

 

Also, when he first joined and was in the team with Shelvey, that's where he played, with Shelvey sitting deeper.

 

Think he'll actually be excited with now being played there again.

He did and also said he’s happy to play wherever the gaffa wants him to play  Bet he’d play in goal too 

 

“I think I can play No 6, 8, 10…” Guimaraes told Sky Sports following his two goals during the important 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest, Newcastle’s second-successive Premier League away win. “The gaffer gave me freedom.”

Nominally a left-sided No 8, Guimaraes was given licence to roam and regularly popped up in a No 10 position. No wonder he felt liberated.

Anyone seen Match cam from the Brentford game? After both Tonali's goals, you can hear the other players singing his name as they celebrate together. Thought that was canny good.
