FANS have all been left saying the same thing after Miguel Almiron’s electric start to the season drew comparison’s with Jack Grealish.
Grealish took a stunning swipe at Almiron at the end of last season, declaring: “He (Riyad Mahrez) played like Almiron yesterday,” during the season finale.
Almiron netted a stunning brace for The Magpies as they run out 4-1 winners over Fulham at Craven Cottage.
The 28-year-old’s first strike in particular lefts fans stunned, as he lashed home a brilliant volley over Bernd Leno.
And with Almiron currently outscoring his fierce critic Grealish by three goals to one, fans have been left saying the same thing.
One Newcastle supporter said: “That’s what you get when disrespect the GOAT.”
