These Newcastle United fans were raving over Miguel Almiron after the Magpies thrashed Rochdale 4-1 on Tuesday.

Almiron scored in the 26th minute against Rochdale in Newcastle United’s 4-1 win, as Matthew Longstaff and Joelinton were also on the scoresheet for the Magpies.

In the 21 Premier League appearances Almiron has made, the 25-year-old has only scored twice and has also assisted just once in the league.

Many of the Toon Army believed the Paraguay international has started to find some form in front of goal, with many going on to claim the South American is on fire.

Here’s what the Newcastle fans had to say about Almiron’s performance on Twitter:

Is Miguel Almiron the best player at Newcastle United?

Yes, he's amazing!

Yes, he's amazing!

No, he's overrated!

No, he's overrated!

So far this season, Almiron has played 32 matches for club and country, scoring six goals and managing to get just three assists.

These Newcastle fans were thrilled with the 25-year-old’s performance and they will also be happy to see that Almiron has now scored in his last three outings; a run the Geordies will likely want to see continue for a little while longer.

What Do We Think?

With Almiron scoring in his last three matches, the 25-year-old is clearly in very solid form right now. We feel this FA Cup match will give Almiron even more confidence, which Steve Bruce and these Newcastle fans will be hoping can boost his Premier League form and help them climb the table.
