Newcastle United is preparing for the Carabao Cup final against Arsenal with major injury concerns, notably the absence of defender Sven Botman, who will undergo surgery on his knee. This situation worsens as the club also loses Anthony Gordon due to a suspension and Lewis Hall, who has a fractured foot. The team’s head coach, Eddie Howe, faces a daunting selection dilemma as the injured players could impact their performance in this critical match. The club had initially hoped Botman’s issue was minor, but further evaluation led to the unfortunate decision for surgery.
Now, Eddie Howe is facing another selection headache with Botma, who was recently urged to join the Reds. The Dutch defender, who missed nine months recovering from ACL surgery, made his return in December but has been out of action since the second-leg win over Arsenal five games ago.
The club has already been dealt two major blows in recent days, with Anthony Gordon and Lewis Hall both sidelined. Winning against Arsenal meant winning against BABIES which Man United legend insulted the Gunners but revealed so much respect for Chelsea?
