Warren Aspinall has been talking ahead of the Newcastle United fans seeing their team take on Brighton.
A 3pm kick-off on Saturday with four rounds of Premier League matches still to play.
The former Brighton player talking to BBC Radio Sussex: “I think Danny Welbeck will come in for Georginio Rutter but that will be it.”
Welbeck came on as a sub for Rutter in the last game, a 3-0 victory over Chelsea. The former Man U striker scoring the third and final goal.
Danny Welbeck now has 13 goals in the Premier League this season, having started 22 PL matches and came off the bench in another 11.
Warren Aspinall going on to say: “It’s all about what we do and I’m sick of saying this but, who’s going to be the X factor for Brighton on Saturday? Who’s going to step up to the plate and keep this run going? That’s what I’m asking and I think it will be our wide players.”
Brighton are the Premier League form team with six wins and a draw, just one defeat, in their last eight matches.
Warren Aspinall very confident: “They need to put the foot down on the accelerator from the word ‘go’, with high intensity football like we did in the Chelsea game. This crowd will turn on Newcastle. I’m sure some of these [Newcastle United] players will go into their shell and not many of them go into the trenches when the going gets tough so, I’m hoping we get after them, get an early goal and the crowd will turn on them.”
Hopefully it will be the Newcastle United players proving Warren Aspinall wrong. Recent games have seen a minority of Newcastle United fans booing at home matches, which to be honest I don’t see the point of. It is hardly going to encourage them to play any better.
