Alan Shearer took to Twitter after today’s fantastic 3-0 home win against Chelsea.
He congratulated Rafa and the players on what he termed a brilliant season when we have finished in 10th place.
Most pundits thought we would be relegated at the start of the season.
Congrats to Rafa and all the players @NUFC for a brilliant season and finishing 10th. Well done AGAIN to all the fans for sticking with the team when at times it was tough. #NEWCHE

Comment #1BBC:
Ex-Liverpool player Shelvey bossed the middle of the park with 73 passes, more than any of his team-mates and his imposing showing could earn him a late call-up to the England World Cup squad, which will be named by Gareth Southgate on Wednesday.
