“What a player” Arsenal and Real Madrid stars hype up this Newcastle ace
By Kian Long
Happy Sunday, Newcastle fans!
Yesterday, the lads impressed and got back to winning ways, although they did it in true Newcastle fashion, by leaving us with our hearts in our mouths. In the end, it was a narrow 1-0 win which wasn’t reflective of the dominance which Eddie Howe’s army showed throughout the entirety of the match.
One of the best players on the pitch was Bruno Guimaraes. In my player ratings, I gave Bruno an 8/10 rating, which was the second highest on the pitch. He was everywhere and was integral to many of the attacking movements demonstrated yesterday.
Posting to social media, the star Brazil midfielder celebrated the win. As reported by The Boot Room, he was met with some hype from some star-studded players. Firstly, Arsenal attacker Gabriel Martinelli kicked off the support by commenting “craquee” which means ace. Then, one of the best players in the world Vinicius Jr commented saying “what a player”.
I bloody love this club, but these lads put you through it! I was a bag of nerves during that!

Newcastle United 1 Brentford 0
I thought the second half was way better than the first. Kieran Trippier was mint throughout, Bruno was better further forward, Gordon was good, Botman… pic.twitter.com/MY7k7yz1e5
As Newcastle United prepare to play in the Champions League this week, it is this calibre of players they will come up against. Therefore, for Bruno to be back to his best is key for Eddie Howe.
Playing against AC Milan is never easy, but rotating the squad and getting three points against Brentford is exactly the trend they must follow to ensure their best players remain fit. Bruno, though is simply irresistible. As a physical player who isn’t as injury prone as others in his position, he can be utilised in many more matches as a true asset to Howe.
