Is this guy just a silent assassin? You never here anything about him he just gets on with his job of being amazing, every Newcastle fan puts him as the first name on the teamsheet every week and he just gets better.

Apart from against Haaland in the 3-3, I can't think of many other times. Let's hope he continues his form and stays injury free.

Apart from when he slipped for the Watkins chance, I thought he was pretty great yesterday?

 

Maybe we take these type of performances from him for granted

We absolutely do sadly, same with the flagging Bruno got in the match thread absolutely lifting stuff. 
 

Both him and Schar kept Watkins extremely quiet.

Bruno's getting stick? 

Usual lot give midfielders grief when they're dispossessed from behind once or twice, Bruno has had that creep into his game recently by dallying in posession so now there's a giant magnifying glass on it everytime it happens, meaning they'll focus on that instead of the 85+minutes of decent to good play. It's remedial shit.

He was fantastic on the ball. He's so good at progressing play into midfield, quickly too.

 

That left hand channel was a concern though. For the Diaby goal, no one tracks him from midfield and Botman is in absolute no man's land in the middle. He then unfortunately slips for the Cash chance, but he'd already been pulled out of position leaving Burn with a two v one at the back stick.

 

It's very early doors yet and I'm sure we'll tighten up, but we'll get punished if we're that sloppy in the next three.
