We (Newcastle) are running on fumes. Howe's persisting with this high intensity, high pressing style that worked well last season, but we don't have the legs for it and are getting found out time and again.
If Joelinton is fit we can at least compete physically in the middle of the park, but if not it could be embarrassing.
Not expecting anything but a fairly routine Man City win, to be honest. Maybe if we had a full strength side we could maybe put up a bigger challenge, but with the injury list being what it is, and Howe's intransigence, we'll get nowt.
