If Alexander Isak is worth £150m then what price is Sandro Tonali? Isak is justifiably coveted by every leading team in Europe after scoring 21 goals this season but, make no mistake about it, Tonali is the player making the Premier League’s form team tick right now.

There are no guarantees that Eddie Howe will be back in the dugout at Newcastle United before the end of the season – and the club are steadfastly refusing to put a timeline on his possible return.

How the eyes of the Manchester United fans must have lit up when the pre-match tifo at St James’ Park was unfurled to depict Kevin Keegan in all his mid-90s managerial glory on the Gallowgate. For a club that clings to its recent past like a comfort blanket it must have been a sight for sore eyes – a reminder when the mere presence of red on Tyneside was enough to prompt a bout of the jitters so big that it cost Newcastle United the Premier League title in 1995.
