Paul Dummett - Progressing in recovery Dummett (calf) was pictured training with the team as he takes the next step in his recovery.
Impact Dummett -- who has yet to get onto the pitch this season -- appears to be trending in the right direction though a return to action is likely still a few weeks away.

Impact Shelvey missed the Dec. 19 contest and his status remains unknown a week later. His issue doesn't seem major, but with little time to recover, there's no guarantee he'll be in the starting XI for either of Newcastle's upcoming fixtures, pointing to more starts for Isaac Hayden.

Impact This isn't too surprising for Lewis, as hamstring injuries are often a month-long absence, if not longer. Matt Ritchie is healthy and can play at left-back but once Lewis is healthy, those two are expected to fight for time unless Newcastle add someone else in the transfer window.
