Newcastle United fans on Twitter have been sharing their excitement over Magpies teenager Elliot Anderson. 

This comes after the official Newcastle Twitter account shared a post on its page after Anderson scored a penalty during the Newcastle U23 side’s recent 3-2 defeat against Stoke City.

This post then quickly grabbed the attention of a number of Toon supporters who were not shy in sharing their thoughts on the player after his latest goal for the U23s.

So, what did these Newcastle fans have to say in response to this post about Anderson?

“FIRST TEAM NOWWW”

@jchaytor16

“Starboy”

@scottftblV2

“Starts over Gayle”

@NUFC_ARI

“Get him in the first-team squad”

@MaxwellSonny

“Get him in the first team he quality”

@JayWade05825546

“Start vs Watford”

@KEZZAMAGS

Looking at the replies to this post, it’s clear to see that these Newcastle supporters are big fans of Anderson and think he is capable of doing a job for the first team rather than the club’s U23s.

Would you like to see Elliot Anderson play regularly in Newcastle's first team?

Yes

Yes

No

No

In our view, given how the 18-year-old attacking midfielder managed to score five goals in nine league appearances for the U23s last season, perhaps he could be a good option for Steve Bruce in Newcastle’s senior side ahead of the likes of Miguel Almiron, who is yet to register a goal or assist so far this season.
