‘Atrocious’, ‘Terrible’ – Some Newcastle fans tear into 28-yr-old after his display against Spurs
Newcastle crashed to a 3-1 defeat against Tottenham in the Premier League earlier. Goals from Heung-Min Son and Harry Kane secured the three points for Jose Mourinho’s side. Matt Ritchie scored the only goal of the game for Newcastle.

The 28-year-old Swiss defender has been poor in the recent games and his performance has attracted a lot of criticism once again. He was at fault for one of th...

‘Doesn’t get the credit he deserves’ – Gary Lineker in awe of Chelsea star
Chelsea bounced back from Saturday’s disappointing 3-0 loss at the hands of Sheffield United to secure a vital 1-0 win over Norwich City last night.
