In Saturday’s 5-1 victory over Brentford for Newcastle, Bruno Guimaraes stood out as the player who most impressed his manager and Brazil’s decision-makers.
At St. James’ Park, Bruno Guimaraes scored twice as Newcastle defeated Brentford 5-1, winning accolades from the crowd and Howe.
He’s a great deal because of the impact he’s had on the team and the club, Eddie Howe told the media. I can’t believe I’m saying it, but that amount is quite moderate in today’s market. He’s fun to work with and be around. He’s a great upbeat individual who gives me energy, and I love working with him. Everyone here who is associated with the club, including myself, the players, and the fans, I believe truly adores him.
As Brazil prepares to travel to the World Cup in November, Bruno Guimaraes will be hopeful that his performances will be sufficient to get him a starting position. Although he is directly competing with Fred for a spot in the starting lineup, he is still likely to contribute in some way to the team.
Match Highlights: Newcastle has now won two straight games, moving them up to fifth in the standings. They have a trip to Manchester United coming up. Brentford has gone three games without a victory and has dropped to 12th place. The following time out, they host Brighton and Hove Albion.
For the second straight game, Newcastle triumphs in a decisive victory, defeating Brentford 5-1. As a result of Toney being offside, Mbuemo had an early goal disallowed by VAR before Guimaraes and Murphy put the Magpies up 2-0 at the break. After Burns’ handball, Toney scored from the penalty spot to restore Newcastle’s lead, but Guimaraes added another goal two minutes later. A pair of late goals completed the scoring, with Almiron scoring one of them after Pinnock’s errant backpass set him up.
On October 16, the Brazilian midfielder will go with Newcastle to Old Trafford to take on Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United.
