Troy Deeney has given his Newcastle United verdict.
The BBC Sport pundit talking after the weekend’s match at Craven Cottage.
This comes as Troy Deeney picks his best 12 performers from the top tier action.
The Premier League team of the weekend (and manager) that have most impressed him.
Included in his dozen choices is somebody who was the standout ‘unbelievable’ performer on Saturday afternoon in West London.
Newcastle United drawing 1-1 away against Fulham.
Troy Deeney explains why he has chosen this player from the match at Craven Cottage for his Premier League team of the week and then the full eleven (twelve) are listed below:
“Bernd Leno (Fulham): Unbelievable couple of saves from him to keep Fulham in the game. I thought Newcastle should have been three or four up before Fulham got the equaliser.”
I agree with Troy Deeney.
Lukas Hornicek made some smart saves but United had comfortably more clear chances and could/should have won the game if not for the excellence of Bernd Leno. Though even he could do nothing about Jacob Murphy’s stunner.
