If he still has ambitions to play for England, he won't want to be back up to anybody.
He's miles of England at the moment. The odd assist looks good on MOTD, but his overall play is nowhere near enough at the moment.
Why would West Ham want him, they're chasing a Top 4 spot? Sadly Palace is more his level
Disagree. He's been superb since his move to Newcastle. What other English player creates chances with one pass like he does, or hits accurate 60 yard passes? If he continues his current form he shouldn't be far off the England squad. Shame he's in such a poor Newcastle side.
But is that enough? Unless you're Pirlo and in a team built around you, then such a player may be considered a luxury. On Saturday the Newcastle midfield was completely open and showed no interest in tracking back unlike the Bournemouth midfield, which was a major reason why they lost
Shelvey has picked Solly in his #One2Eleven on The Fantasy Football Club.

I grew up playing with him in the youth ranks and he made his first-team debut when I was already in the team. I called him Mr Consistent. He was eight out of 10 every week. He's never going to let you down. His positioning was great, his distribution was brilliant and something I loved was that he loved a tackle. I'll put him in just for that!
Newcastle are the Premier League version of us. If they go down and Benitez goes, much will depend on who's appointed as the next manager. If it's a Nigel Pearson 'type', Shelvey could well become the fulcrum of a new team after a wholesale clearout. I can't see Shelvey being much in demand so far as the very top clubs are concerned, his future is probably at a Newcastle, Sunderland, perhaps a Middlesbrough type, a decent but not VERY top club.
What has happened to him? Undoubted quality footballer. Is it an attitude problem (as rumoured for Swansea exit) or does Benitez just not rate him? His omission from a struggling Newcastle makes no obvious sense to me. Very strange
Jonjo Shelvey has been charged for misconduct in relation to Newcastle United’s game against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday 17 September 2016.
It is alleged that in or around the 87th minute of the fixture, he used abusive and/or insulting words towards an opponent.
It is further alleged that this breach of Rule E3(1) is an “Aggravated Breach” as defined in Rule E3(2), as it included reference to ethnic origin and/or race and/or nationality.
The player has until 16 November 2016 to respond to the charge.
Bloody hell. Hes been tearing up the league by the sounds of it too.
The guy he allegedly abused is morroccan. Not sure what was said but the FA must have some sort of evidence to charge him given it was back in September.

You've got to admire Shelveys determination to see out his 5 1/2 year, £80k a week, no relegation clause contract :-)

Shelvey on £80k a week, while Neymar is on £77k a week
At least there's one area where Newcastle United is "better" than Barcelona!
Those geordies are a funny lot

Very odd
