Alan Shearer has chosen the eleven players (and manager) who most impressed him in this past midweek’s round of matches in the top tier.
The player turned pundit naming his Premier League team of midweek.
Alan Shearer including two players who stood out for NUFC in the Spurs 1 Newcastle 2 match.
An excellent team performance and Spurs very lucky to lose by just a one goal margin.
However, the main thing of course was that Newcastle United picked up all three points.
The Alan Shearer Premier League team of the week:
Sa (Wolves)
Malick Thiaw (Newcastle United)
Ibrahima Konate (Liverpool)
Tyrone Mings (Aston Villa)
Tomas Soucek (West Ham)
Jacob Ramsey (Newcastle United)
Hannibal Mejbri (Burnley)
Florian Wirtz (Liverpool)
Jaidon Anthony (Burnley)
Antoine Semenyo (Man City)
Jorgen Strand Larsen (Crystal Palace)
Manager: Scott Parker (Burnley)
Both Malick Thiaw and Jacob Ramsey deserved to be on the winning side for sure, along with the rest of their Newcastle United teammates. That pair of course also coming up with the goals that ensured the three points for United.
