ALL I WANT FOR XMAS IS YO

Nick wishing for a Wissa gift

- BY LEE RYDER

Nick Woltemade is eager to form a potent partnership with Yoane Wissa after another game passed by without the pair sharing the stage.
In January we have nine games," said the Toon striker.

"It is good that we have quality players to come in. It is what we need.

"We can play together and now we are in the situation where we are both fit and I hope it stays like this."

Woltemade's partnership with Anthony Gordon was a big positive of Newcastle's clash with the Blues.

Gordon laid on the second goal in 20 minutes and forced Robert Sanchez into a save, which Woltemade tapped home for his first just four minutes into the game.

Woltemade now has nine goals since signing in August from Stuttgart for £69million.
