Mixed it up this month with lots of Cup and league games! Still unbeaten, and I am sure that Southampton hate the sight of us!

Newcastle United 2 - 1 Nottingham Forest
Capital One Cup Quarter Final

MOTM: Ross Barkley (Newcastle United)
Thought we were off to a great start as Barkley scored 2 inside 2 minutes, but after that we just could not seem to find the net, even with the amount of chances we had! But still, we progress!
We drew Southampton in the next round.

Crystal Palace 0 - 4 Newcastle United
FA Cup 3rd Round

MOTM: Mateo Kovacic (Newcastle United)
Good win! Just as you expect from us these days, dominate the match, have plenty of shots, and score plenty of goals!
We have drawn Chelsea in the next round.

Southampton 1 - 4 Newcastle United
Capital One Cup Semi Final Leg 1
View attachment 360360
MOTM: Eduardo Garrido (Newcastle United)
First game of 3 versus Southampton this month... and the 1st leg could not have been any better! Garrido and Volland working together very well to tear Southampton apart, who actually put up a bit of a fight!
Was definitely not worried about the 2nd leg after this.

MOTM: Mateo Kovacic (Newcastle United)
Apart from a couple of changes, the same side that started in the cup game, and we were even better this time around!
Controlled the game even better, restricted them a bit more, and got the clean sheet this time!

Burnley 0 - 5 Newcastle United

MOTM: Kevin Volland (Newcastle United)
He may have needed 2 penalties to get it but Volland got yet another hat trick in his Newcastle career!
Burnley really had no chance from the start and the red card in the 55th minute sealed the result for us.

Newcastle United 4 - 1 Southampton
(8 - 2)
Capital One Cup Semi Final Leg 2
View attachment 360357
MOTM: Kevin Volland (Newcastle United)
He may have only needed 1 penalty this time but Volland still managed to get another hat trick! 2 games in a row! Hat trick was made to look even better this game though as he scored 2 goals within a minute of each other right at the end of the 1st half!
Wonder who we have got in the Final!

MOTM: Eduardo Garrido (Newcastle United)
I was so unhappy and very disappointed we did not win this after our performance!
We were absolutely incredible and tore Chelsea apart, and deserved to win it strongly!
Looks like we need to have a replay then!

MOTM: Raheem Sterling (Newcastle United)
What a 1st half! 3-2 to us at the end of the first half, but for once as my back up side actually seemed to be playing a bit ropey, I thought it was possible that we could mess it up! But luckily for us we managed to hold on and get the win!

League

We may now only be 2 points clear but we have a 4 games in hand! 4! We win all of them and we could be 14 points clear, and I have no doubt that we have the capability to do it and ensure the league is ours yet again!

So we are still yet to book our place in the next round as we have to replay Chelsea, but there were some big surprises!
League 1 side Bournemouth beat Premier League side Nottingham Forest 3 - 0! Yes!
Championship side Peterborough head through to the next round after beating Premier League side Southampton 2 - 1... not a good month for them!

Best Player of January

Kevin Volland
One of, if not his best ever month for us! He may not have scored in either of the last 2 games but scoring 12 goals in 8 games... incredible!
2 hat tricks as well... I love this guy! Which is also why I signed him to a new contract to remove his buy out clause, as I am sure teams will come sniffing again in the Summer!
