Over five thousand missing Newcastle fans v Norwich and fewer and fewer supporters with each passing match – can it be reversed?

Newcastle United first team coach, Paul Simpson, has claimed that the 6-2 win over Norwich came about because all of the players knew their jobs.

Newcastle star Gini Wijnaldum has soared 157 places in the power rankings form table, easily United’s top player in that time period.

That’s it, the problems of Newcastle fans are at an end and it’s onwards and upwards from here. Right? Right???

Paul Simpson has pointed to Moussa Sissoko’s tracking back as a big factor in beating Norwich, turning defence into attack for the 4th goal.

Ian Wright has suddenly decided that Aleksandar (two goals in two games and playing very well) Mitrovic was always a decent player.

Two Newcastle players have made the official Premier League team of the week, with Gini Wijnaldum also easily the top player overall.

Moussa Sissoko. The only player I have ever seen to be the best player on the pitch, and then arguably the worst, all in the same game.

Moussa Sissoko says ‘it was just my job’ – not wanting to ruin the moment but response from many fans would be to ask why he doesn’t do his ‘job’ more often

Jamie Carragher thinks Norwich played right into Newcastle’s hands on Sunday but believes United might do the same when they play Sunderland.
