Montoya update
The Argus reported that he had missed Friday due to an injury.
Oddly they have a piece about the back four this morning and don't mention it. Bruno says "“We are really happy with [Montoya] and it doesn’t mean anything that he didn’t play on Friday." Perhaps it was just tactical.

Official site has Propper playing for Holland. Thought he was injured?
He is. He dropped out of the Netherlands squad post West Ham due to his foot injury.
Looking at the training pictures on official site(Thursday). No Gross/Propper/Stephens involved. Everyone else is there. Murray isn't but he might have a different routing due to his age.
Injury latest.
Bong [unspecified injury] he's ruled out of Cameroon international on Tuesday. He didn't play for Cameroon on Friday.

Injury list mounting. No updates for Propper, Gross, Stephens or Montoya.
The Newcastle game might just be a little too soon for them.I’m sure they’re just niggles
