Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez has told Jonjo Shelvey to be ready to make an impact as the midfielder awaits his chance to get back into the team.
Shelvey will hope for a first start since the opening day of the season when former club Liverpool arrive at St James' Park on Sunday, having been limited to two appearances as a substitute since his return from suspension.
Benitez, who signed Shelvey during his time at Anfield only to leave the club days later, knows exactly what the 25-year-old has to offer but was giving opposite number Jurgen Klopp no clues about his prospects of a return this weekend.
