With Cheick Tiote being absent at the start of the season, the Dutchman found himself in the starting XI alongside Jack Colback. The pair were roundly criticised on several occasions and the club have since gone out and purchased two more players who will battle for the central midfield starting role. However, with the former Ajax star able to fill in at full back, his versatility could be utilised by the Magpies at the back end of the season, starting with the trip to the Britannia.
