Shearer: Willock had a magnificent debut

Joe Willock certainly hit the ground running at Newcastle United, marking his debut for the club with the opening goal in Saturday's 3-2 win over Southampton.

The 21-year-old midfielder, who arrived on loan from Arsenal last month, was excellent throughout and his display impressed Alan Shearer, the Premier League's all-time leading goalscorer.

Willock is one of three Newcastle players to earn a place in Shearer's Team of the Week.

Emiliano Martinez (AVL) AVL 1-0 ARS

"Another clean sheet. It must have been awkward for his former club Arsenal seeing him perform so well against them."

Isaac Hayden (NEW) NEW 3-2 SOU

"The midfielder is doing a superb job filling in in an unfamiliar role at centre-half."

John Stones (MCI) LIV 1-4 MCI

"Stones didn't put a foot wrong. Again he gave nothing away."

Ezri Konsa (AVL) AVL 1-0 ARS

"A solid partnership again with Tyrone Mings that kept Arsenal quiet."

Joe Willock (NEW) NEW 3-2 SOU

"Welcome to Newcastle! What a magnificent debut, and one he won't forget."

Bruno Fernandes (MUN) MUN 3-3 EVE

"Produced a stunning strike that should have made sure of three points for Manchester United."

Ilkay Gundogan (MCI) LIV 1-4 MCI

"Scored twice and could even afford to miss a penalty in another top midfield performance."

Miguel Almiron (NEW) NEW 3-2 SOU

"His best game for Newcastle. Magnificent. Two goals and ran miles for the team when they were down to nine men."

Phil Foden (MCI) LIV 1-4 MCI

"Outstanding. Capped another superb display with a great finish. What a talent."

Harry Kane (TOT) TOT 2-0 WBA

"He’s back! Scored one goal and played a part in the second for Son Heung-min."

Raheem Sterling (MCI) LIV 1-4 MCI

"He gave Trent Alexander-Arnold a difficult afternoon from start to finish, running him ragged and getting a deserved goal."

Manager: Pep Guardiola (MCI) LIV 1-4 MCI

"He masterminded his first win at Anfield in some style. Using Foden as a roaming false 9 worked brilliantly."
