Wilson returns for Newcastle as Schlupp starts in advance role

Callum Wilson (£6.5m) is back in the Newcastle team after recovering from the hamstring injury sustained before the international break.

He slots straight back into the side alongside Joelinton (£5.7m) in the two-man partnership of a 4-4-2 formation.

Steve Bruce is, of course, short of Allan Saint-Maximin (£5.3m), leaving Miguel Almirón (£ and Jeff Hendrick (£4.8m) to provide the width from midfield.

While Newcastle have struggled to offer much going forward in their last two matches, they may fancy their chances against a Crystal Palace side that has just one clean sheet in their last 17 Premier League outings.

However, Roy Hodgson has mitigated against that, recalling Gary Cahill (£4.5m) to join Scott Dann (£4.4m) at centre-back.

Cheikhou Kouyaté (£5.0m) has not lost his place though, moving back into central midfield and displacing Jairo Riedewald (£4.4m) to the bench.

Of particular note is the fact that FPL midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp (£5.4m) looks to be the replacement for Wilfried Zaha (£7.3m), who misses out due to self-isolation for coronavirus (COVID-19).

The former Leicester man has been named alongside Jordan Ayew (£5.7m) in a front-two, while Eberechi Eze (£5.8m) and Andros Townsend (£5.9m) are tasked with the left and right flanks respectively.

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita; van Aanholt, Dann, Cahill, Clyne; Eze, McArthur, Kouyaté, Townsend; Schlupp, Ayew.

Newcastle United XI: Darlow; Lewis, Clark, Fernández, Manquillo; Almirón, S Longstaff, Shelvey, Hendrick; Wilson, Joelinton.

    Games like this make me want an 18 team or even 16 team division.

    Get rid of fixture congestion, improve quality of matches, less overall fatigue and most importantly of all, get rid of all these ridiculous Fantasy clean sheet points for rubbish defenders.

    Remember that season when Liverpool signed Benteke and EVERYONE had him at the start? Haha

    1. have you seen cyan
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Benteke was decent once upon a time, at Villa I think

        ermmmmmm..

        1. have you seen cyan
          • 4 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          errrmmm? 42 goals in 89 appareances is an errm?
          Did you not even know he played for Villa?

          No doubt...

          1. Pep bites Kun
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Fair enough - you think he'll be remembered as a great footballer? You reckon he met his peak?

          • 6 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          I'm referencing everyone having him! Hard to take critique from someone who took out Guita before Newcastle and West Brom haha!!! Good job on the google for the stats however.

          1. have you seen cyan
            • 4 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            are you ok? You seem a little slow, why did you reply to my comment and not the original post?

        Yes, Liverpool was the start of his downfall

      Awesome at Villa. His holdup play was magical and had the feeling that he could score anywhere. Maybe he is one of those players who couldnt handle the pressure. Lost The starting position in naitonal team as well after moving to Liverpool

      1. have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I remember picking Belgium in Fifa and being like, yes I have Benteke to bring on as a sub for Lukaku!

      Yes, I like how nobody is over 100%, so we can all celebrate goals etc. How it should be

    The fact that Charlie Taylor has more points than Lamptey shocks me

    1. Pukki Party
