5 West Brom Players Who Will Target NUFC At Set-Pieces

5. Joleon Lescott

Joleon Lescott may only have one goal so far this campaign but the 6ft 3in defender loves to attack from set pieces. The 32-year-old 26-cap England international has 35 career league goals from defence and is always a threat from set pieces - and it appears almost impossible that the Magpies would be able to stop him if he gets a run and jump in. What's worse for NUFC is that Lescott is versatile - so he could well play at left-back in order to allow the Baggies even greater height in attack.
