“The target was always after the next international break [that] he could be ready, but we don’t know. So, as I said, there is no pressure and hopefully, everything will be fine for the rest of the season, that’s the plan.”
Newcastle manager Bruce, speaking ahead of the match had some complimentary words for Saturday’s opponents and their blistering attack.
“They have not lost there for two-and-a-half years and they are the European champions. We will have to catch them on an off day. Upfront [Liverpool] are as good as I’ve seen, so we’ll have to defend well.”
