A lot of Newcastle United fans have responded to a tweet put out by their club showing Jonjo Shelvey back in training ahead of the Toon’s clash with Burnley.
Shelvey has missed the Toon’s last three league matches and without him, Newcastle have failed to win a league game or even score.
Will Shelvey's return help?
Yes, he will add some creativity
No, won't make any difference
Perhaps the former Swansea City man can provide that spark to get them scoring goals again?
The 28-year-old is Newcastle’s top goalscorer this season with five, and these Toon fans are hoping his return can help them get a win over Sean Dyche’s men.

Actually don’t think I’ve been this excited to see a player come back all season other than Shelvey badly missing him, Hayden and him need to start Saturday

Other Newcastle supporters, though, were not convinced.

What do we think?
Shelvey has performed well this season under Steve Bruce, earning a 7.10 average rating in the league and one Man of the Match award.
Burnley, though, head into this match in good form, having won four of their last five league games.
However, all good runs have to end somewhere, and Newcastle will be hoping that they can get back to winning ways on Saturday.
