da pixbet: Newcastle United suffered their 12th Premier League defeat of the season on Wednesday night – going down 1-0 at home to runaway league leaders Manchester City.
da wazamba: Newcastle were criticised for their defensive tactics, but the Magpies came extremely close to levelling the scores in the final minutes through Dwight Gayle, who sent a header wide of the post.
Rafael Benitez’s side are currently battling to stay out of the bottom three, but the supporters have not turned on the players.
Indeed, the responses to a tweet posted from Newcastle captain Jamaal Lascelles was a clear indication that the fans are very much behind the team.
Lascelles, who is valued at £4.5m by transfermarkt.co.uk, thanked the fans for their support once again, and the reply section on Twitter was full of praise for Newcastle, and indeed Lascelles, who is captain of the Magpies at the age of 24.
Newcastle will attempt to return to winning ways when they welcome Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday afternoon for what is a huge match.
