IT is a dilemma that everyone associated with Newcastle United has been crying out for this season.

Having had no obvious recognised centre-forward to start in any of their three games so far this term, Newcastle now have £120million worth of talent to choose from.

So the question for Eddie Howe is now clear. Who starts up front vs Wolves on Saturday: Nick Woltemade or Yoane Wissa?

Wissa arrived on deadline day in a £55million deal from Brentford and is already Premier League proven. Last season, the 29-year-old scored 19 goals in the division and is well up to speed with the demands of the division.
