Redknapp full of praise for Newcastle pair Almiron, Willock

Former Tottenham Hotspur boss Harry Redknapp believes Newcastle United pair Miguel Almiron and Joe Willock had an outstanding time in the last round of Premier League games.

The duo were included in Redknapp's Premier League Team of the Week after their 4-1 win against Fulham.

Almiron netted an outstanding goal, while Willock grabbed two assists.

“He's [Almiron] brilliant," wrote Redknapp for BetVictor.

"I've watched his first goal a few times, and I'm still unsure how he managed to guide that into the net. It was a marvellous bit of technique. And his run for his second was fantastic, he made it look easy. Newcastle fans must be really excited by what they are seeing.

"Two assists for Willock on a day where I thought Newcastle were just fantastic. He's [Willock] got a great understanding with Almiron and Wilson, which is so important. Eddie Howe will be delighted to see how they're progressing."
