Trippier

Adamson, preferred to Kieran Trippier at right-back, made 426 appearances for the Clarets during a 17-year spell.

Anthony Gordon’s 55th-minute strike from Kieran Trippier’s cross ultimately secured the points on a night when largely dominated without reward until his intervention.

Based on last season Kieran Trippier would lead the team out while Fabian Schar and Sven Botman have their slots pretty much secure in the heart of defence.

Gordon finally made the breakthrough 10 minutes into the second period when he was picked out by Trippier to convert at the back post.

However, his time on the pitch was short-lived as he was shortly replaced by Newcastle full-back Kieran Trippier.

In addition to Trippier, Sean Longstaff is just one yellow card away from a suspension if picked up before the New Year's Day match at Liverpool.

Jonjo Shelvey's injury has highlighted the need for another body in the engine room, while reports suggest increased competition for Kieran Trippier is also under consideration.

Martin Dubravka keeps his place in goal as he continues to deputise for the injured Nick Pope, In front of him, Fabian Schar and Jamaal Lascelles are picked as the centre-back partnership, flanked by Tino Livramento and Kieran Trippier.

Newcastle doubled their lead at the half-hour mark from a corner when Dan Burn peeled away from his marker despite having his shirt tugged and the towering defender headed in Kieran Trippier's cross at the far post.

Newcastle still look a little light in the middle of the park while Eddie Howe is keen to bring in a young right-back to learn from Kieran Trippier at some point in 2023.

Sadly, Kieran Trippier wasn't that sensible.

Silva claimed Jones had missed two blatant fouls in the box, arguing Dan Burn should have been dismissed for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity by sending Andreas Pereira tumbling before Kieran Trippier tripped Bobby Decordova-Reid.

That is according to the MailOnline, who also state Howe sees the soon-to-be confirmed signing as the long-term successor for Trippier.

That would see Kieran Trippier move across to left-back where he's excelled in the past on international duty.

Trippier also underlined the importance of having players who were brought up as supporters in the dressing room.

Trippier, as one of the few senior Englishman to test himself abroad, knows how difficult it is for overseas arrivals to adjust to a new environment following his own move from Spurs to Atletico Madrid and the veteran made that clear to Tonali.

Trippier has previously joked about a new arrival taking set-pieces off him yet it would be a surprise if that happened - even if Newcastle 'only' scored 11 goals from corners and indirect free-kicks in the Premier League last season.
