Newcastle United will be in Monday's FA Cup fifth round draw after beating Aston Villa 3-1.
But the game will most likely be remembered for the dreadful officiating:
▪️ Aston Villa's goal should not have stood. Tammy Abraham had mistimed his run and was a yard offside when the free-kick was delivered
▪️ Lucas Digne's late challenge on Jacob Murphy only brought a yellow card rather than a red. It left Murphy bleeding
▪️ Chris Kavanagh awarded a free-kick outside the area when Digne handled inside the penalty box

I can't lie, I'm starting to get worried about Isak.
We can't use the preseason excuse anymore when it's December and he has one goal in 641 minutes in the PL and UCL. He looks so far off the pace it's unreal.
Sandro Tonali’s heat map is an absolute joke tonight.
Sandro Tonali’s heat map is an absolute joke every match.
The Italian just keeps getting better and better.
Some insiders suggested, from April onwards, Isak was behaving and playing like someone who did not want the team to qualify for the Champions League, as he knew it would make it harder for him to explain to Howe and the supporters why he wanted to go #nufc
Liverpool valued this Wirtz guy at £116m, but could only muster an offer of £110m for the world’s best striker - and have seemingly just walked away from that deal?!
What are they smoking down there?
This is brilliant. A MUST LISTEN.
Sky Andrew is an agent who knows what he's talking about. Don't buy into anyone spinning or trying to defend Alexander Isak.

Woltemade turned down Bayern Munich to sign for #NUFC after talks with Eddie Howe... Barcelona are coming back to St James'... What a night on Tyneside 😉⚫⚪⚫⚪
