Newcastle fans in agreement as Callum Wilson returns against Tottenham

Newcastle United fans are all saying the same thing as Callum Wilson was included the starting XI to face Tottenham Hotspur this afternoon.

The Magpies number nine has been absent for a number of weeks but fans are backing the 29-year-old to be the difference for the Toon.

Federico Fernandez paid the price for a poor display at Wolves in the previous game to make way for Lascelles while Miguel Almiron sat out after travelling with Paraguay for World Cup duty.

It's the first game under new ownership with the atmosphere already bouncing outside St. James Park.

Today's clash at St. James' Park is the first chance the new owners will get to cast an eye over the team, with a delegate from Saudi Arabia in attendance.

@LiamNUFC98 tweeted: "The beautiful man Callum Wilson is back."
