    The Magpies emerged triumphant thanks to a first-half goal from Alexander Isak, which was a major blow to the title ambitions of the Gunners as they slipped to fourth place in the Premier League standings. Manchester City also went down to Bournemouth which allowed Liverpool to seize the top spot after their own comeback victory over Brighton.

  • WHAT WRIGHT & SHEARER SAID

    This weekend, it was Shearer’s turn to boast after his former club triumphed over Arsenal. Recovering from a recent knee replacement surgery, Wright is currently using a wheelchair, but that didn’t stop him from giving Shearer a feisty response as he spotted the former striker filming a video with a mischievous grin.

    Wright, clearly unfazed, quipped "F*** off," as he chuckled, while Shearer, undeterred, replied, "It was only 1-0." Unamused by the continued taunting, Wright shot back, "F***ing shut your mouth," with a death stare at the ex-striker.
