[ad_pod ]Ayoze Perez stole the headlines for the Toon on Saturday with his first hat-trick for the Magpies and what a well taken one it was too but Perez was not the only Newcastle player to impress.Paul Dummet was excellent at the back, particularly after Southampton pulled one back to make things nervy before Perez wrapped up his treble to seal the win.The Welsh international was superb with a number of key blocks, tackles and clearances throughout as Newcastle sealed their Premier League status for another season.
Dummett’s return from injury in recent weeks has become even more important because of the loss of Florian Lejeune to injury, as he has slotted in next to Fabian Schar and Jamaal Lascelles seamlessly.
And the unsung hero may finally get the recognition he deserves as Alan Shearer named him in his Team of the Week, which has delighted Toon fans on Twitter.
One Newcastle fan called the 27-year-old the “Kenton Maldini” and another said “Great to see our Paul Dummett getting the nod, alongside Perez.”
