Newcastle United supporters are ecstatic to see record signing Alexander Isak named in Eddie Howe's starting line-up against Bournemouth. Toon supporters have only seen glimpses of the Swedish international following his big-money move last summer.
Since the World Cup break, Howe has restricted Isak’s game time to cameos from the bench. A hamstring injury had ruled the 23-year-old for most of the season but he gets his chance to since from the off this afternoon.
Elsewhere, the Newcastle boss has kept faith in Allan Saint-Maximin by naming him in his team to face the Cherries. The Frenchman started his first game since August last weekend but his performance polarised fans.
