After Newcastle United put Sheffield United to the sword at Bramall Lane yesterday the players took to social media to join in the online celebrations.
Newcastle rounded off a tough week in style by putting eight goals past newly-promoted Sheffield United in their own back yard on Sunday.
Eight different players got their name on the scoresheet in the rout too, a first in the Premier League, so it was no wonder the players were in good spirits at full time.
Tonali entered the fray with 20 minutes to go yesterday
Sandro Tonali wasn’t one who got on the scoresheet but did come off the bench with 20 minutes to go to be a part of the action after his Milan homecoming earlier in the week.
After the game Tonali posted an image of himself on Instagram celebrating £40million man, Bruno Guimaraes‘ goal along with Anthony Gordon with a caption saying: “This is the way, let’s keep pushing!!”.
Goal scorer Bruno immediately replied with “Sandro Tonali fratello” along with five hearts.
Tonali got plenty of love from his Newcastle teammates on Instagram
For those of you who don’t speak Italian fratello is brother. Joining in with the ‘brother’ talk was Sven Botman who also replied with “Fra” followed by a couple of hearts. Again, if you’re not fluent in Italian like myself, that’s “bro”.
Eddie Howe said on Friday how Tonali has only trained fully with the squad once in the last month due to international duty and a slight niggle in his thigh.
So really, other than that opening day special where he scored after just six minutes against Aston Villa, Newcastle fans are still waiting to see the best of their new midfielder.
