Whether he feels Martins and Owen cannot play together, only Allardyce knows, and it is sure to become a selection headache in coming months.But it is selection problem most managers would love to face.
The latest betting puts Martins ahead of the other two as Labrokes release the odds on who will be the Premiership top scorer come May.
With three games coming up in a period of six days, Big Sam says he will use his full squad so we can expect a reshuffle with Shola Ameobi joining the frame.
And it will be very interesting who the ex-Bolton boss picks for the Carling Cup tie against Arsenal. It is a competition he believes is Newcastle's best chance of lifting a trophy, so he will take it seriously.
