Kieran Trippier demonstrated real leadership skills after he travelled down with the Newcastle United squad to support the Magpies in their 2-0 win at Brentford on Saturday.
That's according to Trevor Sinclair, who believes that Trippier did a 'fantastic thing' by going to the game. The 31-year-old is currently out injured and will miss a substantial portion of the rest of the season through injury.
Newcastle shared images of Trippier inside the changing room after the match and coming off the bus with the rest of the players ahead of the clash with the Bees. There was some criticism directed at him when he decided to leave Atletico Madrid for the struggling Magpies back in January.
