Anthony Gordon - Signs long-term deal Gordon has signed a new long-term contract with Newcastle, according to his club.

Impact Gordon has shut down the rumors that have swirled around the winger for the past couple of months about a possible move away from the Magpies, as he inked a new long-term deal with Newcastle. He has started in all eight of his appearances this campaign and will only see his role grow with the club during the rest of his new contract, with the winger being one of the star players at the club.

Joelinton - Takes four shots in loss Joelinton had four off-target shots, created two chances and made three tackles (all won) and three interceptions during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Brighton.

Impact Joelinton brought his usual tenacity in the middle of the park while also being an active presence in the attacking end as he was frequently seen stepping to the opposition's box to finish plays. With 12 shots, eight chances created and 12 tackles over his last four starts, the midfielder has been emerging as a nice two-way contributor as of late.

Anthony Gordon - Active display in loss Gordon had four shots (two on target), created three chances and sent in six crosses (one accurate) during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Brighton.

Impact Gordon was one of the best men on the pitch despite being on the losing side as he always found his way to generate danger, no matter if it was by finishing plays or creating for teammates. Despite having just two goals and no assists over eight league starts, the forward is still one of Newcastle's top fantasy performers due to his ability to rack up a lot of peripheral numbers.

Alexander Isak - Takes seven shots in return Isak (toe) had seven shots (four on target) and created two chances during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Brighton.

Impact Isak returned to the team after missing the previous two outings and once again went scoreless but this time not without bringing danger as he had more shots on target than in his other five appearances combined. With just one goal and one assist over six appearances this year, the striker remains one his his team's biggest hopes so they really need him to bounce back sooner than later.

Nick Pope - Makes four saves in loss Pope made four saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Brighton.

Impact Pope couldn't do much when Danny Welbeck appeared unmarked in front of him to score the lone goal of the match, but other than that the goalkeeper displayed his usual safety between the posts. With 35 saves, two clean sheets and just one game with multiple goals allowed in eight starts, Pope is off to a very productive start of campaign with the Magpies.

Lewis Miley - Returns to bench Miley (back) went unused on the bench during Saturday's clash with Brighton.

Impact Miley was back on the bench during Saturday's clash, though he went unused. The midfielder will be a depth option when back to full fitness, with Sandro Tonali's return likely keeping Miley on the bench for the most part.

Jamaal Lascelles - Targeting January return Lascelles (knee) is targeting a return in January as he ramps up his recovery.

Impact Lascelles is still working back from a torn ACL he suffered in April, with eyes towards a recovery in January. Sven Botman (ACL) is looking at a similar injury and a similar time frame, with both potentially offering a second half boost to the Newcastle defense.

Alexander Isak - Leading the line Saturday Isak (toe) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Brighton.

Impact Isak returns after missing Newcastle's past two matches through injury. The attacker has scored just once in his six league appearances this season.

Martin Dubravka - Returns to training Dubravka (knee) was pictured in training ahead of Saturday's clash with Brighton.

Impact Dubravka is back in training ahead of Saturday's clash, and should be fit for the bench once more. He remains the backup option behind Nick Pope, though he should see chances in cup competitions now that he's fit once more.

Lewis Miley - Back in training Miley (back) is back in training and nearing a return, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Lewis has been back training during the break. He has looked really good - he looks like he...

Impact Miley is back in training and could return in the coming weeks. The midfielder has faced an extended spell on the sideline due to this lingering back issue. With Sandro Tonali back available, there is going to be stiff competition for Miley to earn minutes moving forward.

Kieran Trippier - Set for weeks out Trippier (hamstring) will be out for multiple weeks, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Kieran has picked up a hamstring problem, probably nothing too serious, but it will keep him...

Impact Trippier is set to miss multiple matches during one of the most important parts of the season. The right-back is a tough loss, especially after he earned the starting job back before the break. Valentino Livramento figures to return to the starting XI, a second chance for the right-back who played his way out of the starting job earlier in the season.

Callum Wilson - Won't be rushed Wilson (back) is nearing a return, but won't be rushed back, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Callum has also trained, but with Callum we will continue to assess it day-by-day. We...

Impact Wilson has struggled with injuries over the last season, and now as he nears a return Newcastle is being careful to get him fully fit. The striker would be a bench option even when fully fit, as Alexander Isak (toe) is in contention as well. Wilson has yet to appear in the Premier League.

Alexander Isak - In contention Isak (toe) is in contention for Saturday's clash with Brighton, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Alex has trained and trained well - he trained at the start of this week and looke...

Impact Isak was ruled out before the break due to a toe injury, and is now straight back in contention. When fit he's the clear top option in the starting XI. If Isak starts it would likely shift Anthony Gordon back to the wing, with Harvey Barnes potentially falling to the bench.

Lewis Miley - Resumes light training Miley (back) was spotted in limited training Wednesday, Newcastle announced.

Impact Miley continues to work back from a long-term back injury, and is slowly ramping his fitness up. The midfielder likely remains weeks away from a return, though there's no definite timeline for his recovery. With Sandro Tonali back from suspension, Miley's loss has been less notable, though he figures to take some role when fit once more.

Kieran Trippier - Doubtful to return in October Trippier (hamstring) is out for Saturday's match against Brighton and is doubtful to return before November, according to Chris Waugh of The Athletic.

Impact Trippier looks to be heading to the sidelines longer than initially thought, as he is now in doubt to return in October following his injury against Everton before the international break. He is still undergoing assessment from the club's medical staff, as they are hoping it isn't a serious issue that forces him out for long. However, the club appears to be taking the situation cautiously, not wanting to risk the defender with a loaded schedule this season.

Dan Burn - Consistent centrally Burn has shifted back to center-back after spending most of last season at left-back.

Impact Burn has started and played every minute at center-back, with Lewis Hall and Lloyd Kelly instead taking over at left-back. The defender obviously has less upside offensively while playing centrally, but he has been busy defensively. He's also earned two clean sheets in the opening seven matches.

OCTOBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Lloyd Kelly - Limited in Newcastle Kelly has made three starts before the international break.

Impact Kelly signed with Newcastle as a depth option at left-back, and he's fulfilled that role nicely. That said, with Dan Burn fit and Lewis Hall earning more chances, Kelly has been left on the bench for the final two matches before the break. With a busy schedule coming up, Kelly will see chances, but he will likely remain the backup.

Miguel Almiron - Hardly playing Almiron totaled just 30 minutes on the pitch before the October international break.

Impact Almiron barely saw the field before the October international break, playing just 30 total minutes. The winger has truly fallen out of favor, with Jacob Murphy and Harvey Barnes taking on larger roles in the starting XI. Barring injuries, Almiron's time as a major contributor in Newcastle seem to be over.

Sean Longstaff - Drops to bench Longstaff has been on the bench for the final three Premier League matches before the October international break.

Impact Longstaff opened the season as a starter, and spent most of last season as a starter as well. He's now fallen to the bench with Sandro Tonali back from his betting suspension. The midfielder will likely remain a bench option available for rotation, with starts if Bruno Guimaraes or Sandro Tonali are sidelined.

OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Tino Livramento - Failed to take top job Livramento started the first four Premier League matches but failed to impress, as he fell to the bench in the last three.

Impact Livramento opened the season as the starter, but four poor performances in a row sent him to the bench, with Kieran Trippier coming back into the starting XI. Livramento likely still has a future with the club, but he clearly wasn't ready to be the everyday starter at right-back.
