Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe admits he has injury concerns to deal with following the 3-3 draw with Manchester City on Sunday. The Magpies manager is likely to make a number of changes for the trip to Tranmere Rovers in midweek after a tough clash against the Premier League champions.
Ryan Fraser was an unused substitute during the St. James' Park draw after pulling up with a groin issue in the warm-up, while Callum Wilson and Dan Burn were both forced off in the second-half.
"We had a couple of issues in the game,” Howe admitted. “Ryan Fraser I couldn’t bring on - he was feeling a groin injury in the warm-up. He would have been a very important player for us if we were able to use him today but we didn’t have that luxury.
