Harry Redknapp explains why he’s picked out the two Newcastle United stars | OneFootball

Harry Redknapp has picked his best 11 performers from the final weekend’s action.

The Premier League team of the weekend that has most impressed him.

Included in his top 11 are two stand out players from Newcastle United’s 4-2 victory over Brentford.

Harry Redknapp explaining to BetVictor why he chose this Newcastle United duo amongst his Premier League team of the week:

Nick Pope returned from injury and looked right back to his best. He made a couple of very good saves for Newcastle at the weekend, they’ve missed him so much. Martin Dubravka did a decent job but Pope is a different level. I’d expect to see him in the squad for the Euros.

Pedro Porro (Tottenham)

Thiago Silva (Chelsea)

Jarell Quansah (Liverpool)

Tyrick Mitchell (Palace)

Rodri (Man City)

Moises Caicedo (Chelsea)

Bruno Guimaraes was brilliant for Newcastle yet again. His form in the second half of the season has been superb, he’s been so dominant in midfield. He was the best player on the park for Newcastle at Brentford, scoring one and creating another. Will Newcastle be able to keep hold of this guy without Champions League football?
