Leaves field holding shoulder Pope exited Saturday's match against Manchester United in the 86th minute due to an injury, holding his shoulder as he walked off the pitch.

Impact Pope looked to be in a lot of pain as he walked off the pitch Saturday, holding his shoulder and grimacing after taking a tough fall after saving a shot. This is a huge blow for Newcastle, as their goalie department was the only portion of the team unscathed by injuries until now. There is still no further information on the injury, as that should be taken care of in the press conference after the match. He was replaced by Martin Dubravka, who should stay as the starting keeper if Pope misses time with the knock.

Impact Pope faced eight shots and stopped six of them during Tuesday's loss. It wasn't a bad performance but he just couldn't keep up with the variety of Dortmund's attacking chances.

Impact Pope wasn't at fault for either goal allowed but the fact that he could only make one save and couldn't salvage any fantasy value here is that left those who picked him for fantasy teams disappointed.

He has conceded seven in four games so far and will aim for his first clean sheet of the season in the next game against Brentford.

Still the Newcastle defense is among the best in the league and Pope should be a safe bet to surpass double-digit clean sheets once again.

Impact Pope had a very tough mission against the defending champs and did well most of the times.
