He does not play a role against Arsenal, but he was able to return to the Champions League fixture contest against the Union Sanguillowers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 (&amp;+p):mt-4 (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):inline-block (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):pb-2\">The defender&#8217;s return will become important not only for his leadership and experience, but also for his ability to settle and build play from behind. His vision and passing range have often been significant for Newcastle&#8217;s offensive transition, but his aviation presence remains a key weapon in both penalties.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 (&amp;+p):mt-4 (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):inline-block (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):pb-2\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Schar_becomes_a_key_player\"><\/span>Schar becomes a key player<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fabianshire in action for Newcastle (Justin Setter Field\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"my-2 (&amp;+p):mt-4 (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):inline-block (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):pb-2\">While Malik Chiau was impressed with Cher&#8217;s absence, Swiss International is expected to play a key role for his team when he returns from injury. He is one of the first names on the team sheet and reclaiming him would be a huge boost for the club.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 (&amp;+p):mt-4 (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):inline-block (&amp;_strong:has(+br)):pb-2\">Newcastle&#8217;s depth will be tested as European football participates thicker and faster games. Returning the shale to the mix provides stability, quality and depth.<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see if Newcastle can get past Arsenal&#8217;s game without a defender and produce strong performances now.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End --><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newcastle United&#8217;s preparations for a clash with Arsenal this weekend could be affected by Fabian Charle&#8217;s absence.
