Joelinton's transformation from a stuttering striker to a marauding midfielder has been well-documented at Newcastle United. The Samba star has long been one of the first names on the team sheet since Eddie Howe discovered he was a man reborn when deployed in a deeper role than was initially attempted on Tyneside.
However, recent games have seen Joelinton start to find his feet in front of goal a mere four years of flattering to deceive in attack. The 26-year-old helped himself to Newcastle's second in the 6-1 drubbing of Tottenham Hotspur to continue his fine spell in front of goal.
The former Hoffenheim striker was responsible for the equaliser at Brentford, which unfairly went down as a David Raya own goal earlier this month. Joelinton also notched against West Ham a few days earlier in similar fashion to his St James' Park goal last Sunday.
