Eddie Howe says he could include amazing midfielder in Newcastle lineup vs AC Milan

Eddie Howe finally has some decisions to make in the starting lineup, as options have been a rarity with this injury crisis. He is finally seeing some players make their returns from injuries and hilariously, he is "thankful" to finally have some tough decisions to make.

Speaking in the pre-match press conference, Eddie Howe stated that Sean Longstaff is a "consideration" although he did reinstate that the team has a lot of "information to digest" before they can make any final calls. He also gave an honourable mention to Callum Wilson, hinting that he is also in contention to start in this match.

"“Sean [Longstaff] is a consideration,

But we have a lot of information to digest, with Callum [Wilson] as well.

I have some big calls to make for the first time in a long time, thankfully. It was great to see them both back involved but we will need to make the right decision for the team.”"

It was great to see the English pair used from the bench in the Premier League at the weekend. Although the result didn't go our way, Longstaff and Wilson being used from the bench was a welcomed surprise, and an indication that Howe may have the pair in mind to start in this important Champions League clash. Newcastle win this game to progress to the knockout stages, although they will hope Dortmund beat PSG.
