“Not a chance” – These Norwich fans do not want Tettey to start
Kenny McLean is a major doubt for Norwich’s clash with Newcastle at Carrow Road this weekend.
Ahead of the match, Farke revealed that McLean could be out due to a back injury, whilst also revealing that Alex Tettey is available for selection.
We decided to ask Norwich fans if they would like to see Tettey start
Twitter: ? With Kenny McLean set to miss tomorrow’s game, should Alex Tettey be given a chance to start?

READ NORWICH VERDICT
Given that Tettey played 0 minutes during pre-season and his last start for the club was a 3-1 loss to Preston in February, it would be odd to see his name in the starting line-up on Saturday.
Moritz Leitner came off the bench in the defeat to Liverpool last week, which suggests that he is above Tettey in the pecking order and could be given the nod alongside Trybull in midfield against Newcastle.
With Mario Vrancic and Ibrahim Amadou also available, Tettey could find himself struggling for minutes in the coming weeks – and for the rest of the 2019/20 campaign.
