Tim Krul: "It'll be nice to see Shay Given (pictured right) again.
"When I came to Newcastle in 2005, Shay was more like a teacher to me.
"I learned so much from him, and now I'll look to put it into practice again.
"To be playing against him will be another challenge.
"At the moment, we're all feeling the same - we can't wait for the next game."
"It hasn't been the kindest venue - we know we've had some down days there.
"Now we aim to put that right. We're looking at the brighter side of life these days though. We're looking really good, we can beat anybody."
