Newcastle fans took to Twitter following our great 1-0 win at Leicester City last night breaking their four-game winning streak under new manager Brendan Rodgers.
It was another masterclass from Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez who was interviewed on the touchline after the game by Sky Sports’ pundit and Rafa’s former player Jamie Carragher – and others.
Rafa was in his element during the interview and it’s no wonder he and Newcastle are in demand on TV.
Rafa can talk about football for hours and hours much like Sir Bobby Robson and we hear an experienced manager who knows what he’s talking about and knows what it takes to win in football.
He’s very much like Sir Bobby.
Here are some tweets from Newcastle fans and some videos of the Newcastle fans last night at the away end of the King Power Stadium.
We still have Southampton, Brighton and Fulham to play surely we are safe now? #NUFC

Think it’s the last 13 Monday night games involving #nufc have all been away. Ridiculous

The Spurs/Huddersfield game is indicitive of the gap between the Premier and Championship. So pleased the Toon are safe for another year. #nufc

Loved what Carragher and Neville had to say about Newcastle yesterday, wasn’t over the top, it was a realistic view on the club at this moment. #nufc

Udders feeled are the only team in the entire division who have scored less than Brighton and Fulham!

Twitter is hilarious….They are livid !
I wouldn’t care but its changed nothing, still in their own hands.
It would be funny if they have to do another season down there.
Actually I wonder what would be better (for NUFC fans)
Mackems get promoted AND go back down again end of next season
Or
Stay in League one again and not get promoted
It’s a difficult one !

Comment #48So the rozzers are looking into an assault on the Barnsley manager by his opposite number in the tunnel after their game against Fleetwood today.
That would be Joey B, ladies and gents. Joey. B.

Comment #49Mag52,
From earlier on Rondon free kicks, aye that’s probably right, wasn’t Shelvey a set piece taker as well. Surprised Rafa never insisted if he was hitting those in training.

Comment #50Shelvey’s set pieces were terrible apart from that one against Brighton in the championship hes been pretty poor!!
So a midfield revamp in the summer Mooy , Nandez and Erras in Diame , Shelvey and Hayden out?

I think Fulham can’t afford to sell him!! Especially if they want to try get back up next season!!
Could see someone like West Ham trying to sign him in the summer but not sure about the 40 million price tag being touted!!

Comment #55Juan Mata the football agent said on
Chiringuito that son Juan Mata (his client)
may stay in the PL in Summer when his
contract with Man U expires.
Which isn’t newsworthy in itself
However
He hinted his next manager may be a
Spanish speaker !!!

Comment #56I can’t see Cheksea signing Higuain, do you think he’s good enough for Chelsea, I think he misses too many chances. West Ham, Abdy Carroll surely is finished as a top flight footballer.

Comment #62Juan Mata would be a fantastic signing for us even for a few seasons his quality on the ball would be great to supply Almiron , Perez etc
Wages would maybe be an issue but he would just improve our quality for a few seasons !
Would sell Shelvey in a heart beat if we were getting Mata on a free transfer!!

I don’t think Chelsea can sign anyone at all in the summer though?
Spurs would be a worry Rondon could easily be a top quality 2nd striker to challenge Kane for a few seasons

Comment #70@Jib Everton have a similar idea to Ashley in that they want to sign young players and not spend money on big experience! Brands the director of football was talking about this a couple of weeks ago so Mitrovic would fit that profile!
