Miguel Almiron was shown a big vote of confidence ahead of Newcastle United’s clash with Manchester City as supporters’ group Wor Flags unveiled a banner in his support.
Almiron is a player at Newcastle who divides opinion but following a disrespectful dig from Man City player Jack Grealish in which the midfielder remarked that Mahrez had played ‘like Almiron ’ during the champions' final-day victory over Aston Villa, Wor Flags decided to make their support of the Magpies winger clear.
Speaking to Chronicle Live about the display in the Gallowgate, the group said: “After Grealish's comments in the summer when a video went viral and he referenced Miguel Almiron as a sort of criticism, we felt this was the right game to do a message for Miggy. We did one when he first joined but we wanted to show our support for him.
