Eddie Howe wants the showdown between Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson to drive Newcastle to new heights.
The United boss is facing an awkwards but luxurious juggling act with both £60m Isak and England World Cup star Wilson in top form and scoring. Both are steely characters and want to lead the line from the start, and be the main man up front.
But the way Howe sets his team up means only one can play, flanked by the pace of United’s wingers like Allan Saint-Maximin, Jacob Murphy and Anthony Gordon. At the moment, both Wilson and Isak are in goal-scoring form, even from the bench.
