8 Youngsters Who Could Save Newcastle From Relegation
Is it time to bring back Adam Armstrong?
After yet another shambolic display against Chelsea at the weekend, it may be time for Steve McClaren (or whoever is in charge by the time the Stoke game arrives) to make some bold changes. Far too often this season the so-called big name players at the Magpies' disposal have underperformed and looked extremely lacklustre, and the management team could do a lot worse than to introduce some fresh blood into the side. Although the Premier League is an unforgiving league in which to learn your trade and the Under 21s aren't exactly setting their own league alight - they have one win in their last five - one thing that is clear is the youth players would offer a lot more heart and desire than is currently being shown by certain members of the senior squad. With 12 games left in which to save the season and the transfer window long gone, will the ace card come from Newcastle's lower ranks? Who would be worth a punt? Who would be able to stand among the men and be counted?
