10 Things We Learned From Newcastle Vs Southampton

3. Everything That Has Been Reported About Aleksander Mitrovic Is 100% True

The man is a maverick, which was proved as he was booked no less than five seconds after replacing Papiss Cisse for 'snapping' Matt Targett. In fact, Mitrovic could have easily been sent-off as he elbowed poor old Targett in the side of the head but the referee, thankfully for Newcastle, missed it. We all read how the big Serb was supposed to make Mario Balotelli look a little bit normal before he signed for the club, and his playing style certainly seems to show this is the case. He'll be one of those 'marmite' players United have had so often down the years. There will be one group of supporters who will love his antics while his misdemeanours will wear thin on another school of Magpies fan soon enough.
