Kieran Trippier has come out fighting and declared that he will do everything he can to help his teammates ‘on and off the pitch’ between now and the end of the season.
The Three Lions right-back is one of the key reasons behind Newcastle’s recent turnaround since his £12million move from Atletico Madrid, scoring two free-kick goals to help drag the Magpies out of the relegation zone.
Newcastle supporters - and Eddie Howe - have been blown away by his on-field leadership qualities too, with the Toon boss handing Trippier the armband in the absence of long-serving skipper Jamaal Lascelles.
