Jermaine Jenas believes the 'only downside' to Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson starting together for Newcastle United is the lack of a Plan B from the bench. The club-record signing and top scorer started alongside one another for only the second time in the 2-2 draw at Leeds United.
It was the duo who combined for the Magpies' first goal at Elland Road, with Isak drawing the foul from Max Wober before Wilson confidently dispatched the penalty. Newcastle's number nine then fired the visitors in front following the break, again getting the better of Joel Robles from the spot by firing straight down the middle.
Eddie Howe has often resisted the obvious temptation to name both of his leading marksman in the same starting eleven, but the last two fixtures have seen the Sweden international shifted to the left flank to accommodate Wilson. Jenas believes the in-form duo complement each other well, but fears it leaves the Newcastle head coach short of game-changing substitute options.
