Newcastle United duo Bruno Guimaraes and Miguel Almiron have been named in Garth Crooks' BBC Premier League team of the week. The Magpies defeated Brentford 5-1 at St James' Park on Saturday as Guimaraes bagged a brace and Almiron netted Newcastle's fourth.
Although Crooks was heavily critical of Brentford's performance, the former Stoke City and Tottenham forward was full of praise for Guimaraes.
"Brentford and Ivan Toney looked a shadow of the side who destroyed Leeds a few weeks ago. Meanwhile, Bruno Guimaraes is playing out of his skin for Newcastle," Crooks wrote in his weekly BBC column.
