3 Newcastle United players Benitez has to start against Brentford

Christian Atsu

The on-loan Chelsea winger scored the winner in our last game and was the star man at the New York Stadium.

It was not only his goal that showed why the west London club tied him down to a five-year contract, but his all round play and positivity.

Newcastle have struggled at home when teams have come to defend and the trickery of the Ghanaian could prove to be a vital weapon in the arsenal.

It would be harsh on Yoan Gouffran to start on the bench after his impressive start to the season, but the thought of Matt Ritchie and Atsu on the wings is enough to fill any Geordie with excitement and any defence with fear.
