Newcastle United midfielder Joe Willock has shocked Premier League defenders this season.

That's according to former Manchester City defender Joleon Lescott, who says Willock's pace has surprised his opponents.

"One thing from Joe Willock's game that is underestimated is his pace," Lescott said.

"I remember earlier in the season he ran at Kyle Walker and went: 'I am going to go past you'.

"Not many players can do that so the fact he has gone past Ben Godfrey, who is quick himself, shows how full of confidence he is at the moment."
