Ian Wright has heaped praise on Miguel Almiron after his blistering start to the season. The Newcastle United attacking midfielder is in the form of his Magpies career, continuing on from where he left off in pre-season.
The Paraguayan has scored four goals in nine appearances in all competitions this season, just months after a distasteful comment from Manchester City midfielder Jack Grealish. The England international made reference to fellow City winger Riyad Mahrez 'playing like Almiron' in one of the final games of last season, adding that the Algerian should have been substituted.
The comments from Grealish were widely condemned at the time, with Almiron proving an important point this season.
