Wales coach Ryan Giggs says former Manchester United teammate Steve Bruce needs time at Newcastle United.
Giggs has backed Bruce to turn around Toon's fortunes after the 5-0 loss to Leicester last week.
He told The Sun: They are both at massive clubs. When you don't win regularly at big clubs you are going to get criticised.
It's a tough club, Newcastle. I knew him as a player and he was a leader.
They are both big enough characters to turn it around. Everyone needs time and a bit of luck.
Every top manager has had luck along the way. You need luck with injuries and the odd decision. It's a big game for both of them at the weekend."
