Joelinton

Joelinton had a few fights with injury in the 2024/25 campaign, but he started 29 matches, 14 more than the prior campaign. His physical play leads to a lot of bumps and bruises, which often leads to an absence or two throughout the season. He's never had crazy attacking numbers despite coming to Newcastle as more of a forward, but as seen in his four goals and three assists last season, he's always around to find production from the left side. It seems doubtful he'll keep his fitness for an entire campaign with Champions League to worry about, but his versatility means he's a lock to start in most games when healthy, keeping his floor fairly solid.
