""At every set-piece, he is the guy who is organising the team," "He understands every position on the field, he pays attention to every detail. "When you have a substitution, he is always the guy telling the other guys where they should be. "I am confident we can win any game. We have some problems but, even without many players, I believe in the team and trust in my players. If we are really focused, we can win.""
""Statistically, [United] are a lot stronger than last year. They've seen a big improvement in their general performances. "That echoes what you see with your eyes. They've been competitive. Attacking-wise, they've got some good threats. "This will be a good, tough game for us. It's a good chance, at Christmas, to feel the magnitude of these games. The atmosphere will be special.""
Manchester United can move to fifth with a home win over Newcastle. Bruno Fernandes has a muscle injury after being substituted at half-time against Aston Villa, removing his set-piece organisation and on-field leadership. Ruben Amorim says Fernandes understands every position, directs teammates during substitutions, and pays attention to details, while expressing confidence in the squad despite missing players. Newcastle can secure eighth with victory and climb to seventh with a win by more than one goal. Eddie Howe said consistency in winning has been elusive but praised recent performances and expects a tough, atmospheric match. Casemiro is available after suspension; Jack Fletcher made his senior debut and Kobbie Mainoo is injured.
