Here’s how #NUFC reacted to the team news from the King Power Stadium on Twitter.

@jegnufc91 – “I know Clark hasn’t been on top form lately but to drop him for Krafth is outrageous.”

@DentonKane – “#LEINEW their team looks bit scary doesn't it...Oh well up the Toon!”

@nufckeithr – “Good to see Willock start, but wrong player loses out. If Shelvey hasn't been dropped after last week's performance, he never will be under Bruce.

@DrSquatpump – “Steve Bruce will literally play Shelvey in any position to have him in the team #NUFC

@seancavens – “Scratching my nappa again at Shelvey’s inclusion & don’t get me started on Krath being a CB.”
