Newcastle United boss Joe Kinnear admits he cannot see Jose Enrique being a readymade left-back.

"Jose Enrique's best attribute is getting forward. I don't think he's the best defender in the world, but we can work on that," he told the Evening Chronicle.

"I've got to educate him on that, and put him in that frame of mind.

"He probably gives us better options in the final third of the pitch. He likes to get forward, and we've just got to brush up on his defending.

"We'll have to make sure we put that right, because his first priority should be to defend."
