Thomas Tuchel needs players just like Harvey Barnes if he really wants England to play a braver more attacking game.
Tristan. Watching on a flight to Dubai
That Barnes goal had me criticising him several times for not passing it before thinking ‘ah, fair enough’. I’ll stick to the day job.

Harvey Barnes is only the second Newcastle player to score two against Manchester United in the Premier League, along with Alan Shearer in December 2000.
Describe Manchester United's defence in one common phrase.
Pat'll start. "Like a knife through butter."

This is all about the goalscorer. What a goal.
The power, the physique and control of the ball, when Harvey Barnes is one-on-one with two defenders there he doesn't think about anything except just going straight for the heart of the defence.
He's a knife through butter, he just pings it into the top corner.
What a phenomenal goal, he is in great form right now and that is deserved.

"Barnes will tear you apart, again," chant the home fans. Newcastle are looking set for a fifth win in six against Man Utd.

I know it's not breaking news, but Newcastle look so much better than Manchester United, don't they?
Levels above.
Harvey Barnes (63 mins)
How about Harvey Barnes for England?
The Newcastle number 11 gets his second after he tackles Noussair Mazraoui in the middle and then just gets his head down and runs.
A gap appears in the Man Utd defence and he sprints right through it before smashing the ball passed Altay Bayindir in the visiting net.

Tom, Mr Tuchel is watching.
Tino Livramento's having a decent game.

If ever there was a time for Rasmus Hojlund to get his mojo back, now is it.

Such a shame for Zirkzee. He's been one of Man Utd's best players in recent weeks. Dare I say it but that could be a devastating injury in terms of Utd's Europa League chances.

Very National League stuff as Manchester United clear a cross into the box at the fifth attempt.
Then Jacob Murphy sends in another looping ball which Dan Burn heads over.

Classy touch.
Mason Mount spins away from Fabian Schar and then wins a free-kick.

I counted at least five Newcastle players approach Zirkzee there to check he was ok. Good to see happen!
Si, Leeds
Newcastle 2-1 Man Utd
Poor pass from Manchester United keeper Altay Bayindir, although Manuel Ugarte does well to head away Jacob Murphy's cross.

Another assist for Murphy. What a season the lad is having.
Ken, Newcastle.

Patrick Dorgu's first involvement is to drag down Kieran Trippier in the Newcastle half. I imagine Man Utd will start to open up a bit now. They've got to try get something from this game.

Either Yoro is sleepwalking in this game or he's turned off his GPS. He did not read the game very well during the build up to Newcastle's two goals
Gav
Lenny Yoro has zero awareness of danger! For both goals he should have covered the goalscorers running in!

Newcastle 2-1 Man Utd
Triple change for Manchester United.
Patrick Dorgu, Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund come on for Joshua Zirkzee, Harry Amass and Alejandro Garnacho.

What a shame for Joshua Zirkzee. He was trying to take it around two or three players but his hamstring has gone and it's like he's been shot.

Following their 2-0 win at Old Trafford in December, Newcastle are looking to complete their first league double over Manchester United since the 1930-31 campaign.
Manchester United have lost their last two away Premier League games against Newcastle, last losing three consecutive league visits to St. James’ Park between 1969 and 1970.
Newcastle have won four of their last five meetings with Manchester United in all competitions (L1), as many as they had in their previous 41 (D9 L28).
Each of Newcastle’s last eight victories over Manchester United in all competitions have been to nil – they’ve won none of their last 34 when conceding against the Red Devils (D5 L29) since a 4-3 Premier League victory in September 2001.
Victory for Newcastle would make them the fourth team to do the Premier League double over Manchester United this season, the most different sides to do so in a single top-flight campaign since 1957-58 (4).
Only Leicester City (14) and Everton (13) have failed to score in more different Premier League games this season than Manchester United (12), who have drawn a blank in their last two in the league. It’s the most times the Red Devils have failed to score in a single league season since 1989-90 (16).
Newcastle have won 11 of their last 15 Premier League games, losing the other four. Since the first game in this run (December 14th), no side have won more (Liverpool also 11).
Ruben Amorim is averaging 1.15 points-per-game in the Premier League; the only managers in Manchester United’s history to average lower than that in the top-flight (20+ games, assuming 3 pts/win all-time) are AH Albut (0.73) and Scott Duncan (1.00).
Newcastle’s Jacob Murphy has been directly involved in 19 goals in 33 appearances in all competitions this season, scoring eight and assisting 11. Only in 2015-16 with Coventry has he registered 20 goal involvements in a single campaign in his career (10 goals, 10 assists).
Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes has created more chances than any player in the Premier League this season (75). It’s the fifth time he has created 75+ chances in a single season in the competition, with the only player on record (from 2003-04) to do so more times is Kevin De Bruyne (7).
