Newcastle United ended their season on a high yesterday as they beat Burnley 2-1 at Turf Moor to send them down to the Championship.
The win means the Magpies finished eleventh in the Premier League - less than sixth months after they had sat in the relegation zone prior to Eddie Howe’s arrival.
The former Bournemouth boss has claimed 13 wins, five draws and nine defeats since joining the club in November.
Despite missing a large chunk of the campaign due to injury, Callum Wilson finishes the season as the Magpies’ top scorer with eight goals, followed by Allan Saint-Maximin and Bruno Guimaraes with five each.
