One of the main selection issues that Newcastle United have faced in recent seasons is related to the left-back position.
Rafael Benitez has not invested in a new player to make that role his own, which means that the most senior choice is Paul Dummett.
Whenever the left-back suffers an injury, though, there are not many viable options to choose from.
Benitez could have a problem when the international break comes to an end this week as Dummett could miss this weekend’s fixture against Burnley.
The Wales international withdrew from Ryan Giggs’s team with an injury, but the severity of the problem has not yet been confirmed.
If the left-back role needs to be filled, then Benitez could call upon Javier Manquillo, who is predominantly a right-back, outcast Achraf Lazaar, or loan star Kenedy.
The Playmaker FC squad decided to wind-up some unsuspecting Brazil fans at the Emirates on Saturday night. Watch the hilarious results in the video below…
If the Spaniard does not want any of the above, then he could always make a formation change and play three at the back, while using the likes of Kenedy and DeAndre Yedlin as wing-backs.
We asked you what option Benitez should go for, and the majority believe that switching to a new defensive shape will be more beneficial.
