6’3″ giant surprise name in Newcastle’s five Players of the Year for 2017/18
1. Jamaal Lascelles
Games for Newcastle: 35 – Goals: 3 – Assists: 0
As if it could have been anyone else topping this list.
The Newcastle captain has been an outstanding and consistent presence at the heart of defence and when injured for a short spell over Autumn and winter, his absence was notable.
Leading by example, the skipper has dominated the majority of his opponents with not only his physical stature but his determination and reading of the game – and has even managed to find himself netting some crucial goals at the other end of the pitch.
Lascelles embodies the spirit of the Newcastle faithful and he has the chance to go down in Newcastle history if he continues to keep up his high quality of performances.
