60 minutes ago — Newcastle United vs Man City LIVE score and goal updates as Grealish and Bobb start, Haaland on bench.

15pm. City will hope to be in the hat.

Kyle Walker is laying off the shots, and Haaland is just looking enviously at the shooters. He’s giving tips and applauding the goals, but you can tell he just wants a couple of shots on goal. Even when he’s not playing, he’s eager to be. Erling Haaland arriving at St James' Park earlier on (Image: Getty)19:42Joe BrayRain, rain go away... That said, no clear cut chance has been created. 13’ - NEW 0-0 MNCJoe BrayNewcastle targeting right sideNewcastle seem keen to attack City’s right, which is very inexperienced. Rico Lewis is floating around, Manu Akanji is covering, Sergio Gomez hasn’t played right wing for City before, and Oscar Bobb is making his full debut. In support, Kalvin Phillips is looking a little nervous at times. There’s mistakes to be made on that side - and Newcastle are trying to force them. The opposite side - with Ake, Grealish and Kovacic - is far more stableManuel Akanji of Manchester City battles for possession with Sandro Tonali of Newcastle United (Image: Getty)11’ - NEW 0-0 MNCIsaac JohnsonSuperb Gvardiol defendingIsak leaps forward with his first big break of the ball and tries to twist Gvardiol inside out but the defender wins and clears the ball.

Lewis capitalises on a Targett mistake and crosses from the byline to no avail. Hosts very much looking like a side that has made 10 changes. 24’ - NEW 0-0 MNCIsaac JohnsonDummett saves NewcastleGrealish looked to have broken the defence but Dummett tracks back to produce a well-timed challenge. One name - Lewis Hall - played for Chelsea against City at this stage last season and was their best performer in an easy City win. He will hope to take advantage of Rico Lewis likely coming inside to cause some trouble on the left. Pep Guardiola has always admired Joelinton, and he really got at City in their last two visits here. That’s a big test for Kalvin Phillips to stop the Brazilian powering through midfieldHOWAY NEWCASTLE! #NEWMCI // #NUFC pic. twitter. com/0CKRdHE46R— Newcastle United FC (@NUFC) September 27, 2023 19:15Isaac JohnsonCity are hereKalvin Phillips arrives at St James' Park for the Carabao Cup match between Newcastle United and Manchester City (Image: Getty)19:08Joe BrayWhere will Gomez play? Where to start with that team? First of all Pep said Kovacic and Grealish would play from the bench but they both start, and the question in the press room is ‘where does Sergio Gomez play? ’ The order of names on the City teamsheet suggests the back four is Lewis-Akanji-Ake-Gvardiol, but surely Gomez doesn’t play in midfield? Still, Gomez’s name is next to Phillips and Kovacic, while Bobb-Alvarez-Grealish makes sense as a front three. Stefan Ortega has just had what must be his first touch of the ball after Pope tries route one. 38’ - NEW 0-0 MNCIsaac JohnsonVisitors need to do more with dominanceNewcastle have had just one touch in City's final third all game as has been the visitors' dominance. The Blues have not been able to work many clear cut chances and Alvarez will be annoyed he hasn't scored either of his opportunities. 35’ - NEW 0-0 MNCIsaac JohnsonCity tickingWild back-pass from Lewis Hall means the ball evades Pope's control is out for a corner. Gvardiol comes round from the back of the box but heads into the back of Dummet and it goes out for another corner which comes to nothing. 32’ - NEW 0-0 MNCIsaac JohnsonAlvarez can't believe he's not scored yetManchester City's Julian Alvarez reacts after missing a chance against Newcastle (Image: AFP / Getty)29’ - NEW 0-0 MNCIsaac JohnsonAlvarez goes close againGrealish finds Alvarez on the six yard line so easily but the angle means the striker flashes a shot wide.

Today, we see it as a good opportunity to start a good run hopefully. "Concentration from the whole team, not just the defenders. They have a big threat, they are very energetic and have a big threat up front so we have to be on our A game today for sure.

They have a strong forward line, but a few unfamiliar or forgotten names in defence and midfield. 6’ - NEW 0-0 MNCIsaac JohnsonNo-one taking control as yetNeither team has grabbed hold of the game yet, very bitty. Gvardiol whacked into Murphy in the opening few minutes and Grealish's first real touches of the ball leads to a blocked cross. 3’ - NEW 0-0 MNCJoe BrayCity's shape revealedThe starting XI was a puzzle, and I doubt anyone figured out the answer in the hour before kick-off. Sergio Gomez is wide right - his ‘natural’position - with Oscar Bobb inside next to Mateo Kovacic as an attacking midfield.
