10 Things Newcastle Fans Need To Know About Ivan Toney
3. He's Very Good In The Air... And Has A Poacher's Instinct
As has already been mentioned, Toney's goalscoring record has increased immeasurably in recent months - and he can net all types of goals. A quick search on YouTube for his highlights reel will show all Newcastle fans that, not only does Toney have a poacher's instinct in front of goal, he also loves to score with his head - and he has netted an outrageous overhead kick, as well as a direct free-kick, in his short career to date too. Toney need look no further than Magpies legend Alan Shearer for inspiration when it comes to scoring all types of goals - including bullet headers - in black-and-white stripes.
