What is the phrase? A picture is worth a thousand words? Well, the snapshot of the scenes in the home dressing room told its own story following Newcastle United's 2-1 win against Brighton.
Unused substitutes Miguel Almiron and Dwight Gayle genuinely looked as happy as goalscorers Ryan Fraser and Fabian Schar in the team photograph while first-team physiotherapist Daniel Marti and kitman Neil Stoker were just as prominent as head coach Eddie Howe and assistant Jason Tindall. Even the injured Kieran Trippier popped by on crutches.
There will be players in this picture who are desperate for more game time, but the truth is that Howe has created a team-first environment they all want to be a part of since taking charge. So much so, some of these individuals even gave their all while playing as 'Brighton' during a 10-minute training game on Friday morning.
