Harvey Barnes News: Logs three accurate crosses

Barnes recorded three shots (zero on goal), five crosses (three accurate) and four chances created in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Aston Villa.

Newcastle United logged six accurate crosses, and Barnes recorded half. During the 2024-25 Premier League, despite 33 appearances and a relatively strong season, each of them saw him register fewer than three accurate crosses. Without an assist Saturday, Barnes impressed, which he will need to continue doing for continued starts. Newcastle signed Anthony Elanga, Jacob Murphy remains an available winger and the Magpies could still sign another forward in place of Alexander Isak (transfer).
