Former Newcastle United striker and club legend Alan Shearer has taken to Twitter to express his instant reaction after the Magpies won 2-0 against Everton in the Premier League at Goodison Park on Saturday. The Magpies, who were without a win in their last 11 games in all competitions, showed massive improvement on the pitch as they picked up all three points. Two goals from Callum Wilson in the second half made the difference between the two sides and relieved the pressure on manager Steve Bruce with a much-needed win. 3 much needed points. A clean sheet and @CallumWilson scoring goals again. MASSIVE improvement all over the pitch. #EVENEW 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 pic.twitter.com/Z39CEfkZdk — Alan Shearer (@alanshearer) Ja...
Callum Wilson scored twice as Newcastle United earned all three points against Everton at Goodison Park in the Premier League on Saturday. The Newcastle star’s efforts helped to relieve the pressure on manager Steve Bruce who came under strong criticism from the Magpies fans after a disastrous run of form. Along with Wilson, the likes of Jonjo Shelvey, Miguel Almiron, and Issac Hayden were equally superb for the Magpies. Javier Manquillo was also excellent. Many Newcastle fans seem impressed with the performance of Jamal Lewis, with some claiming it was his best performance since joining the club in the summer transfer window. The 23-year-old left-back, who joined the Magpies from Norwich for a reported fee of £15 million, has cut a hugely frustrating figure this season. However, Lewi...
Everton suffered a 2-0 loss at the hands of Newcastle United at Goodison Park today, remaining in seventh place in the Premier League table as a result. A victory for the Toffees would have seen them move to fifth, leapfrogging both West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur in the log, and the defeat has dealt a slight blow on their chances of breaking into the top-four. Hammers co-owner David Gold was left delighted with Newcastle’s victory over Everton as it ensured that his side remained in fifth place, and he took to Twitter to react thus to the result: Newcasle beat Everton at Goodison Park 2-0 to keep West Ham in sixth place above Tottenham, Everton, Chelsea and Arsenal. Happy days. dg — David Gold (@davidgold) January 30, 2021 West Ham have picked up 10 wins, five defeats and five losse...
Alex Iwobi was on parade as Everton lost 2-0 to Newcastle United in Saturday’s Premier League game at Goodison Park. The 24-year-old returned for the Merseyside outfit against Leicester City on Wednesday, making a cameo appearance in the encounter. The Nigeria international missed his side’s outing against Sheffield Wednesday in the fourth round of the FA Cup on January 24. The forward was then restored to the starting XI against the Magpies to afford him more opportunities to make a meaningful impact for the club. Iwobi gave a good account of himself in the encounter but his effort was not enough to help his side avoid their sixth defeat of the season. The game started with both sides striving to outwit each other but despite their efforts, the first half ended without goals. After the re...
Newcastle United manager Steve Bruce is confident that the club can sign one or two players before the end of the window. The Magpies are without a win in their last 11 games in all competitions, and Bruce’s job could come under threat if they lose against Everton on Saturday at Goodison Park. Bruce has revealed that a lot of clubs are struggling financially at the moment. The Newcastle boss has admitted that the Magpies are interested in Leicester City midfielder Hamza Choudhury, and he is hopeful that there will be a few signings this month. Many Newcastle fans are perplexed by Bruce’s mention of Championship clubs in his presser while commenting on financial struggles. Bruce is not a popular figure among the Newcastle fans who once again were not happy with the club’s approach...
According to reports from Club Doria, Newcastle United are heavily interested in signing Omar Colley from Sampdoria this month. The report claims that Colley is likely to leave the club in the near future. However, any potential buyer can forget about signing him cheaply. The 28-year-old centre-back has a contract at the club until 2025 which strengthens the position of the Serie A club in the transfer market. He is currently enjoying his best form since arriving in Italy, scoring one goal in 13 league appearances so far. Sampdoria will demand a fee in the region of 10 million Euros for the Gambian international. The report claims that Turkish club Fenerbahce and Premier League outfit Newcastle are heavily interested in signing him in January. Sportslens View Colley was heavily linke...
Leeds United returned to winning ways with a 2-1 win over Newcastle United on Tuesday night in the Premier League clash at St James’ Park. Raphinha and Jack Harrison scored on either side of a Miguel Almiron finish and sealed the tie in Leeds favour. It was Newcastle’s fifth defeat in a row in the Premier League and the Magpies have now picked up just two points from the past 27 available to them. It wasn’t a spectacular performance from the Whites but they did just enough to pick up all three points. Raphinha and Pascal Struijk were outstanding for Marcelo Bielsa’s side. Rodrigo was also brilliant on the night and Leeds fans took to Twitter to express their reaction to the Spaniard’s performance. Here are some of the selected tweets: His passing was quality tonight. Probably his best...
Newcastle United crashed to a 2-1 defeat against Leeds United at home earlier tonight and the fans will be disappointed with the showing once again. The Magpies have now failed to win their last 11 games in all competitions. The players were expected to put on a fight after their defeat to Aston Villa last weekend but the team failed to show up once again. Leeds controlled the game in the first half and they have deservedly picked up all three points in the end. Steve Bruce will probably count his side unlucky because of the fact that they hit the crossbar twice but Newcastle were extremely mediocre throughout the game and they deserved to end up on the losing side. The fans were particularly disappointed with the performance of Jeff Hendrick. The 28-year-old was quite poor against Villa a...

Newcastle United host Leeds United in the Premier League later tonight and the Magpies will be hoping to get back to winning ways. Steve Bruce’s side are winless in their last eight league games and they have lost six of those. The Magpies will be under tremendous pressure to turn their form around and it remains to be seen if the players can step up and deliver against the Whites. Newcastle will have to improve in the final third if they want to secure the three points against Leeds tonight. they have scored just once in their last six outings. That said, the Magpies have an impressive head to head record against Leeds and they have managed to score at least twice in 12 of their last 15 meetings against today’s opponents.

Newcastle United are prepared to stick with Steve Bruce as their manager despite their poor run of form. According to the Chronicle, club chiefs have decided to be patient with the current manager until the summer at the very least. The Magpies are currently winless in their last ten matches in all competitions and they have lost eight of those games. It is evident that the club is stuck in a rut and a new manager would have galvanised the atmosphere. Sticking with Bruce right now is unlikely to go down well with the fans either. Bruce’s style of play is already unpopular with the Newcastle fans and they would have expected the club hierarchy to act more decisively and bring in a proper alternative to salvage the remainder of the season. Newcastle are currently 16th in the Premier League t...
