Newcastle United players dominate Alan Shearer’s Premier League team of the week after the thrilling 4-0 win against Aston Villa. Another impressive top-flight performance led the Magpies’ all-time leading goalscorer to litter his line-up with Toon stars.
Kieran Trippier, Joelinton, Miguel Almiron and Callum Wilson made the cut after helping Newcastle destroy Villa at St James’ Park. The win kept Eddie Howe’s side in fourth spot and further ignited hopes of a potential push for Europe.
Elsewhere in the line-up, Shearer selected three Arsenal players following their 5-0 rout over Nottingham Forest. William Saliba, Thomas Partey and Reiss Nelson were selected, with the latter bagging twice on his first league appearance of the campaign.
