Newcastle United posted a brilliant tweet about summer signing Sandro Tonali following their big win over Aston Villa on Saturday.
Tonali, who joined the club from AC Milan for £55 million this summer, scored on his Premier League debut as Newcastle smashed Villa 5-1 at St. James' Park.
Alexander Isak (x2), Callum Wilson and Harvey Barnes also got on the score-sheet as the Magpies opened their league campaign with a resounding victory.

But it was the performance of Tonali that got fans and critics alike talking. He produced a stellar showing in the middle of the park, impressing Newcastle legend Alan Shearer.
It had been reported that the Italian midfielder didn't want to be in England and was reluctant to move to Tyneside.
His performance against Unai Emery's outfit showed his commitment to his new team following his transfer from Milan.

The club's official Twitter account jumped on his showing as they posted a picture of him celebrating, accompanied with the sarcastic caption: "Bro doesn't even want to be here," with a skull emoji.
The 23-year-old's outing for Newcastle received high praise from Shearer, who said the player might turn out to be a bargain despite the fee they paid for his services.
"As debuts go, this was as good as it gets - what a magnificent start to his Newcastle career," he said on Match of the Day.

"It was the perfect midfield performance; a goal, an assist, tackles, great range of passing, late runs into the box, getting stuck in, did his bit defensively - he was involved in almost everything.
"When you compare some of the prices that have been paid for midfielders and are about to be paid for them, I know it is early days... but he might turn out to be a bargain."
Eddie Howe will be hoping for a similar performance from Tonali when they resume their league campaign next Saturday against Manchester City.
