Image for Newcastle United: Fans erupt as goal footage emerges

A whole host of Newcastle United fans on Twitter are saying the same thing as footage of their goal has emerged.

The Magpies managed to pick up a massive three points this weekend as Eddie Howe’s men battled hard for 1-0 victory at Elland Road, but their goal may not have come about if it wasn’t for the brilliant work of Javier Manquillo.

Should Manquillo start every game?

Yes!

Yes!

No!

No!

Howe decided to hand Paul Dummett his second start of the season but was forced into a change during the second half when he went down injured, which saw Manquillo arrive and impress massively as he won the ball twice in his own half, before running from his own defensive third to Leeds United’s box and win a free-kick.

A lot of Newcastle fans on Twitter are buzzing with what Manquillo did.

What have these Newcastle fans been saying?

“Can’t stop watching this! Absolute class from Manquillo!”

@ryangraves1

“Manquillo has to replace dummett now that he’s back from suspension”

@NotJDSports

“Manquillo here deserves all the credit”

@wonderbonzi

Superb from Javi Manquillo. Superb from Jonjo Shelvey. Just an all round fantastic display from #NUFC and a very welcome 3 points”

@16joebuck

“The day Manquillo turned into Maldini.”

@chris_armin

“That is the difference Howe is making, Manquillo mentality and effort was tremendous there”

@daviesb123

Manquillo did appear to be proving himself to be a favourite under Howe as he started five of the previous six league matches before he sat out their draw against Watford through suspension and now with Dummett seemingly injured, the Spaniard may be able to re-cement himself as the number one left-back.
