Newcastle United are top of the Premier League, and their performance against Aston Villa at the weekend showed why they may well be title contenders this season.
The Magpies were irresistible against Aston Villa on Saturday, and while the players on the pitch made most of the headlines, Tony Cascarino was keen to talk about one player who didn’t get off the bench.
Indeed, speaking on The Game Football Podcast, Cascarino hailed teenage sensation Lewis Miley, claiming that this young man is going to be a star at Newcastle, stating he’s been blown away by the youngster in pre-season.
Miley will be a star
Cascarino shared his verdict on the teenager.
“Their bench says it all, the young lad, I’ve seen Lewis Miley play, he’s a young lad who hasn’t got close to the team yet, but he played pre-season and he’s going to be a star at Newcastle. He’s an exciting player,” Cascarino said.
The future is bright
Newcastle are the real deal at the moment, and it wouldn’t surprise us if they went a long way in the Premier League this season.
However, as exciting as the present is, the future is even brighter.
