'Now is the time to enjoy' - Rafa Benitez tight-lipped on Newcastle future after ending season in style

The Magpies finished their inconsistent 2018-19 campaign with their biggest win of the year over Fulham, a result that left their boss more than happy

Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez declined to confirm his future at St. James' Park after watching his team give one of their best displays of the season in Sunday's final round of Premier League fixtures.

Already relegated Fulham were taken to pieces by the Magpies in a one-sided clash at Craven Cottage.

Jonjo Shelvey and Ayoze Perez put the visitors two goals ahead after little more than 10 minutes, before Fabian Schar and Salomon Rondon rounded off a fine 4-0 victory after half time.
