Miguel Almiron remains in sensational form for Newcastle United after bagging his ninth goal of the season away to Leicester City in the superb 3-0 away win.
His goal against the Foxes was very much a team effort as Bruno Guimaraes started the move before Kieran Trippier helped the ball on down the line and the Brazil star played a one-two with the Paraguay captain before he applied the finish. It was exhibition stuff from United but no more than evidence of the confidence that Eddie Howe's team are playing with right now.
Almiron has now advanced from a player who is simply in fine form or on a good run, he is now a leading candidate for player of the season for 2022/23. No longer shackled by playing in a team set up not to lose or pick up the odd point here and there, Almiron is flourishing in a team that isn't afraid to attack.
