00:00I'll be brutally honest, I think the two pre-season games, take what you will from that, but in those two games that they've had, Celtic and today against Arsenal, I think he's been the worst player on the pitch.
00:10Joe Willock is not an option. On evidence of the last year, nearly, Joe Willock is not an option for Newcastle United. So that leaves them with four midfielders for three positions to play week in, week out, midweek and weekend. It's a department that's been slept on.
00:27Sean Longstaff could come in and do a job and look, he had his faults, but he would come in and get 100% and do a job. Joe Willock is not able to hit those levels. You would argue Joe Willock might, in certain areas, blow Sean Longstaff out of the water, but he's not reliable. Not in any way, shape or form is he a reliable option to play in games and I think it's a big problem.
