Team News
Newcastle could have midfielder Cheick Tiote (hamstring) back for this crucial clash. Papiss Cisse is expected to start upfront despite needing treatment for a rib injury in France. Fabricio Coloccini (back) has returned to training but the Magpies captain is short of match fitness.
Luis Suarez begins the first of his 10-match suspension for biting Branislav Ivanovic last week. Daniel Sturridge is expected to replace the Uruguayan up front. With attacking options thin on the ground Fabio Borini may also be included in the squad despite only returning to training this week from a dislocated shoulder that has kept him out since February.
What the managers said…
“When criticism comes at a big football club like this, you have to be big enough and bold enough to deal with it. Whether you’re the manager, the player, the chief executive or the chairman, it comes with the territory. I’ve got absolutely no problem with that. There’s only one way to deal with it and that’s through performances.” Alan Pardew says Newcastle will take any criticism on the chin (Telegraph Sport)
“We are shocked and bitterly disappointed. It is the severity of the ban, which has hurt most. That is something we are bitterly disappointed with. I can only compare it with similar incidents we have had. We have had two incidents of this type of scenario, both in 2006. “One player received no ban and continued to be chosen by the FA as part of the England squad. The second player received a five-game ban. As you can imagine whenever Luis Suarez receives a 10-match ban it is very difficult for us to understand and even more so for him.” Brendan Rodgers reveals his anger at the FA’s decision to ban Luis Suarez for 10-matches (BBC Sport)
