With Swedish striker Isak maintaining a healthy and stable output, Newcastle's recent record has indeed been very strong. In the early morning of January 8, Beijing time, in the first leg of the English League Cup semifinals, Newcastle defeated Arsenal 2-0 away to seize the opportunity to advance to the final. Isak and Gordon continued their good form in this game, and both scored.
With Newcastle's win over Arsenal, the Magpies have already beaten three of the Premier League's top four teams in the Carabao CupNottingham Forest (currently third in the Premier League) were eliminated on penalties in the second round of the League, Chelsea were eliminated 2-0 in the fourth round of the League Cup (currently fourth in the Premier League), and Arsenal were beaten 2-0 in the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals (currently second in the Premier League)ใ
If Newcastle finally knocks out Arsenal to advance to the League Cup final, and Liverpool knocks out Tottenham on the other side, then Newcastle will face off against the final boss of the top four teams in the Premier League, the leader Liverpool, and Newcastle is expected to create a chance to beat the top four teams in the Premier League to win the League Cup.
Newcastle are already close to the top four in the table with a wave of five consecutive Premier League wins, just one point behind fourth-placed Chelsea. The Premier League will be extremely fierce this season, Manchester City will definitely strengthen in the winter window, the fourth is the lowest goal of the Blue Moon Army, plus Aston Villa, the battle will be very miserable, more monks and less porridge!
In the Premier League's scorers' charts, Newcastle's Swedish striker Isak is third with 13 goals, excluding penalties. From a personal point of view, Isak, who is also a Nordic center forward and has skills at his feet, is actually more suitable for Manchester City than Haaland, what do you think?
