While they weren\u2019t brilliant, Newcastle United beat Burnley 3-1<\/a> at Turf Moor to lift at least some of the pressure on Eddie Howe<\/a>. <\/p>\n Who was your MOTM against Burnley?! <\/p>\n Feel free to name your worst player too \ud83d\ude02<\/p>\n \ud83d\udc47 Join the debate; share your insight.
