Alan Shearer has picked the eleven players (and manager) who impressed him most in last weekend’s top-flight games.
The player turned pundit and named his Premier League team of the week.
Alan Shearer, including two players who stood out for NUFC in the Newcastle 2 Chelsea 2 match.
A brilliant performance in the first half and a decent performance in the second half, which overall certainly deserved a United win.
However, Newcastle United has to settle for a point.
The Alan Shearer Premier League team of the week:
Emiliano Martínez (Aston Villa)
Lewis Miley (Newcastle United)
“He kept Alejandro Garnacho quiet and played maturely in an unknown role.”
Joachim Andersen (Fulham)
Dan Ballard (Sunderland)
Keane Lewis-Potter (Brentford)
Reece James (Chelsea)
Declan Rice (Arsenal)
Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa)
Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Leeds)
Erling Haaland (Man City)
Nick Woltemade (Newcastle United)
“Chelsea couldn’t cope with his presence in the first half as he scored twice.”
Manager: Daniel Farke (Leeds)
Both Lewis Miley and Nick Woltemade certainly deserved to be on the winning side, along with many of their Newcastle United teammates.
A few poorly defended Chelsea goals undermined some very good team play.
