Newcastle United are fortunate to have togetherness and unity within the squad, says defender Grant Hanley.
The Mapgies have had key absentees through injury this season, such as top scorer Dwight Gayle, striker Aleksandar Mitrovic and midfielder Vurnon Anita.
In spite of this, Rafael Benitez's side have maintained their Premier League promotion bid, topping the Championship with 78 points from 38 games.
"It's a massive strength we've got here," Hanley told BBC Newcastle.
"It's brilliant that the lads are together."
Hanley, 25, played for the first time since February in Saturday's 0-0 draw at Birmingham City, one of 18 appearances this season.
