Sven Botman
25-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
Unused in opening matches
Botman went unused in each of the first two Premier League matches.
ANALYSIS
Botman has been on the bench for each of the first two matches, but seems to be lacking fitness. Malick Thiaw came on to replace the injured Fabian Schar during Monday's clash with Liverpool. Botman was limited to just eight appearances (six starts) last season in the Premier League, due to a plethora of injuries.
