Isak joins very exclusive Newcastle PL club after goal in Brentford win 👏

Alexander Isak is enjoying yet another brilliant season for Newcastle, plundering in goals and helping them to their first domestic trophy in 70 years.

His latest strike in the 2-1 win against Brentford on Wednesday night also put him among the Magpies greats in the Premier League era.

His close range finish from Jacob Murphy's cross in first-half added time was his 20th league goal of the season, and meant he has now scored 10 both home and away.

He joins fellow elite Toon Army No.9s Andy Cole and Alan Shearer in that club, who struck 34 and 23 in those respective seasons.

10 - Alexander Isak is the third Newcastle United player to score 10+ goals both home and away in a single Premier League campaign, after Andrew Cole (1993-94) and Alan Shearer (2001-02). Hero.

Cole's record is very unlikely to be matched, but Isak needs just one to match his total from last season in both the league (21) and across all competitions (25).

One suspects he will do that with ease as Newcastle chase Champions League football.
