Newcastle United co-owner Mehrdad Ghodoussi has hailed Eddie Howe's warriors after an emphatic win over European hopefuls Brighton & Hove Albion. The Magpies ran out 4-1 winners to blow the Gulls away at St. James' Park.
Roberto De Zerbi's side arrived at St. James' Park full of swagger having beaten Arsenal 3-0 at the Emirates. However, it was the Toon who raced out the blocks and they could have won by a greater margin had it not been for Jason Steele in the Brighton goal.
The former Sunderland shot stopper pulled off a number of great saves to deny the hosts. An own goal from Deniz Undav a Dan Burn header, Callum Wilson and Bruno Guimaraes strikes wrapped up all three points.
