Bruno Guimaraes scored a stunning goal against Southampton on Thursday in his first start for Newcastle.
Since arriving in the North East, the Brazillian has struggled to gain substantial minutes under his belt, largely because of the form of a rejuvenated Joelinton, who has given consistent quality within the engine room of the team.
But with Guimaraes excelling in the Magpies' 2-1 victory over Ralph Hasenhüttl's men in the absence of Joelinton, perhaps the 24-year-old has now done enough to become a regular starter.
